      We need some wider medicine-decriminalization movement. End the War on Drugs. I was trying to rally one up with a few former IRL friends, but we’re in the USA and there’s 80 ongoing crisis every moment, so it just didn’t seem like something people would have time for.

        we DO. i’m in a position where i can’t pay insurance just so they can allow me the privilege to buy expensive, addictive medicine. i don’t want to plead every other month to a new doctor either. i know people in this position and i’m not doing this.

        i’m an adult, let me have my fucking medicine holy shit. so i can more effectively work to the fucking bone for them? what’s the fucking holdup?

          This is exactly how I felt too. I’m a grown adult. I don’t want to be babied. I didn’t like being infantilized as a kid or teen, and I won’t tolerate it now. I wanted stimulants so I would be able to do better work for other people faster and with less stress on me. Help Me Help You… Or spit in my face, I guess, and we both suffer.

          (Also, stimulants aren’t addictive. That’s DEA propaganda. The ADHD brain is just naturally prone to dependency.)
