DEA Pressed ADHD-Drug Makers About Impact of Telehealth Firms on Surging Demand
- cebert 4y agoAs long as the consumers of these ADHD medications are informed of the benefits and risks, I don’t see why the DEA is so concerned. These medications can give you a cognitive boost that helps make more productive as a software developer in a difficult industry. If an informed individual determines the benefits are better than the risks, that’s their personal choice.
- renaissance_tea 4y agoIt’s pretty scary stuff. I just spent 2022 grinding without sleep and severe depression due to accidental abuse of this stuff. My doctor did not educate me well and I’ve never felt better cutting it off cold turkey. It took me over a year to snap out of it.
- CodexArcana 4y agoAs someone who legitimately suffers from adult ADHD I just hope it doesn't impact my ability to get my medication.
- navjack27 4y agoSame. It's already hard enough having to wait until I run out before I can call in more.
- feet 4y agoWell the DEA needs to justify their salaries somehow, even though they do more harm than good generally
- clnq 4y agoI feel like hundreds of government organizations constantly scheming something, in part to justify their existence, is not a good use of taxpayer money or human effort in general.
- navjack27 4y agoNo they don't though. In neurotypical brains you get the impression that you're getting a productivity boost but you're not.
