        Don’t be surprised when this kind of response is met with hostility.

        I mean, read the room.

        Which is of course reason enough to withhold it from the people who need it and to doubt their experience at every turn. /S

        Every person with ADHD I have met has related heavily to my struggles with simply staying on my prescribed medication, you should reevaluate what you think you know about the disorder because you seem really ignorant.

        It’s true that, for people who don’t have ADHD, the meds used to treat it can be misused for ‘recreational purposes’. For people with ADHD however, is not a party drug. Infact, it has the opposite effect’s (generally).

          No I’m not saying they’re using it as a party drug, they’re using it to focus on school and work and stay up late. People do it in the tech industry all the time
