Getting ADHD medication in the US is the single most ADHD-unfriendly activity in existence. Frequent appointments with multiple entities, all-too-frequent interruptions to these appointments (with and without mitigations), incredibly strict windows of time for refills, the #*&$ insurance system... And then there's the inevitable "you run out of meds and have to navigate all these hurdles without being medicated" gauntlet that makes you cry in frustration. If I didn't have a non-ADHD spouse, I doubt I'd be able to maintain it.

Well, there was Cerebral, but their CEO blew the situation up for everyone and now we can't have nice things.

Yes, 100%. The idea that you have to plan vacations around refill windows since they won't let you get more than 2 days before is utterly ridiculous. And at the same time they make it difficult to impossible to get your medications, they (the medical industry) will (with a straight face) tell you "don't go cold turkey off your medications"
