Imho this whole ADHD/adderall thing is just the pharma industry peddling medication and shilling super hard. I wouldn't be surprised if pharma dollars somehow influenced this BBC article getting published
If some people like paying an additional tax to the pharmaceutical industry, good for them. For me personally, I'd rather jump off a cliff then support it
Before someone gets shitty with me for "denying their experience", no I'm not denying it. I'm saying it isn't universal, and the pharma way isn't the only way

- imperialdrive 4y agoI feel you in a sense that I have attention disorder. I tried the meds once and they are freakin amazing. I know what my mind is capable of on them now (2x-10x) but I'm also truly in love with my mind/body/soul as-is and won't cheat on them.
- spritefs 4y agoyeah I also tried them once out of curiosity. I don't think I have an attention disorder, so it might've affected me differently than others, but adderall made me like super focused on everything I'd imagine if I did it more often, I'd be a more productive programmer. At the same time, idk what the health risks are for that and I'm already a bit of a hypochondriac as it is... so I probably wouldn't risk liver damage or whatever is associated with long term use
