> With dex I have experienced a kind of anti-social effect, where I feel disinclined to engage in social contacts - but, when there's a genuine 'CLICK' with someone, there is a sudden outburst of dopamine, I imagine, at least that's what I think happens, and I get all excited.

Yeah, that mirrors my experience . . as soon as I find someone I can engage with, I get really absorbed in the discussion, though I also lose a certain conversational flexibility along the way.

My typical ADD social m.o. involves impatiently interjecting with sporadic witty comments while people are trying to have a discussion with me. Stimulants 'normalize' my social habits, in that I can have real conversations about stuff, but they also 'tame' me and make me more, well, boring.
