Mesmerizing read.
I found it very relatable because as a person trying to manage ADHD those experienced traits and behaviors during treatments are very similar to my untreated ones.
I keep my dark side "on the leash" and maybe it's not as vibrant as ones in story (probably because I was born with it and had chance to adjust over years) but some similarities are uncanny.
With various treatment experiences I had I start to believe that there is no "I" in anyone. It's just an effect of a brain chemistry on which we have very limited effect. Identity that's effect of trauma or treatment is just as real as the one we were born with.
Ethical implications are very interesting, but in reality I doubt anything will change until we have a breakthrough in neurosciences. Even then probably there would be question if we should equalize people different. Feels like a plot for sci-fi movie - there even was one like that: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0238380/ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0238380/
