Question on the Affects of A.D.D. Medication and Bipolar Medication?

Question by shy.rebel.27: Question on the affects of A.D.D. medication and bipolar medication?
I’ve heard multiple times that bipolar medication and medication affecting seratonin and dopine tend to “shave the edge off” the emotions of the patient taking them. My friend says she notices a significant difference between her writing on meds and her writing off them. I know very little about A.D.D. and the medication for it, as is why I’m asking a question like this. Does A.D.D. medication affect a person like this, “shaving the edge off emotions?” I will continue researching the topic, this is just part of it so please nobody go off telling me how I’m ignorant in this area because that is why I’m asking in the first place. So far all I’ve really found is an article about children’s meds giving them hallucinations about bugs.
