If you think this isn't happening with adhdh meds, again, I've got a bridge to sell you
Bro we already did the amphetamine crisis like 20 years ago.
Ah. And like the financial crisis, it was a one-off?
I can't even get prescribed adhd meds lol
Yeah, exactly. It took me 15 years to even get a diagnosis, and then they didn't put me on amphetamines. That's a last resort.
Oh, you can't buy strong amphetamines willy-nilly? How awful.
They don't start you out on amphetamines. The stuff I'm on isn't a stimulant and is not used recreationally.
People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
