On one hand it makes it easy for people that don’t have ADHD to get the medication. On the other, I’m under the impression that one of the best ways to confirm you actually have ADHD is by taking a stimulant.
If you make it significantly harder those who actually need help might not get it, and the harm from a limited stimulant supply for everyone else isn’t all that bad compared to even things like alcohol, weed, etc.
Little kids are another thing entirely, though I know someone in my family in the US had to go through quite a lot until their 8 year old son was given medication. That included things like therapy with coping strategies.
