For me personally, stimulants like Adderall or Modafinil are more or less placebo. They do regulate melatonin, and can sometimes be used as to fix your sleep cycles but that's about it. They don't improve my cognition or productivity. Sure, when I'm not less sleepy I will have better focus. But I think it is much more important to address the cause of why you are unproductive in the first place.
Bad sleeping habits have a huge impact on your daily mental health. Maintain a better consistent sleep pattern and your brain will thank you for it in a long run.
Also, I find that stimulants merely improve your mood and makes work that I find tiring less tiring. But when I'm working on projects that I love to work on, I don't need any stimulants.
