The down side is that you only get the meds if you can absorb being price-gouged for health insurance, at least here in the United States.

BUT, it's fun to see post's like OP's. Makes my heart go pitter patter.

I’m going to be doing this soon myself. Can this actually happen?

When I was a kid I was struggling in school so my parents put me on some nasty amphetamine derivative which I stayed on until my mid 20s. It didn't really make anything easier it just made boring things seem more interesting. I didn't realize this until after I stopped and I regret not getting off of it sooner.

I think I could still benefit from the right adhd drugs but it's just not worth it.

Sounds like concentration meditation.

(Aka samatha and a few others)

It'll give you the clarity and the amazing can-do power.

And unlike drugs, it has no ceiling. You can pump up that power to crazy heights.

Must be nice. The only one that works for me is Vyvanse which is literally just cocaine, and the max dose of 70mg causes my heart rate to hit 120 while sitting down and doing nothing but watching YouTube for two hours.

My experience is the opposite. I used to take Adderall, and I fell that is too close to coke. I switched to Vyvanse about 6 months ago and I've been really liking it. It's much more soft, less of a comedown.

I take 60mg.

I’m really happy that it’s working well for you!

It takes like 4-6 weeks to start seeing effects. She must have had "the placeebe effect"

Edit: I forgot Lemmy knows more about meds than doctors
