I cannot subjectively answer questions regarding addictions, however, having OCD tendencies, I know how strong an impulse one can feel to "need" to do something. Also, as "border-line ADHD", I know THAT feeling too.
My suggestion is to consider Wellbutrin for your ADHD. It works similarly to Ritalin and Adderral, etc... but is not addictive, or abusable (nor does a dose-related tolerance develop).
I agree with those that have suggested that you should avoid controlled substances (and even alcohol) if you have been a substance abuser in the past.I would consider this option, and I'm sure you will hear others.
