Wasn't there an ADHD drug that was popular for hyper-productivity, in the years where being productive was all the hype?
- ReptileMan 2y agoYeah. Amphetamines. All of those are drugs are like a scooby doo villain unmasking and amphetamines are underneath the mask.
- blitzar 2y agoWork place performance enhancing drugs are still a thing. If you are not on them you are at a major disadvantage.
- throwaway657656 2y agoNot ADHD specifically, but about 12 years ago, the media was hyping Provigil as a "secret weapon" of the ultra-productive. Despite having a prescription, CVS told me that my insurance wouldn't cover it and it would cost $1500 for 30 pills. I walked away and then went back to buy it. If I could just get 30 additional minutes of billable time per day per pill it would be worth it. I took about 5 over a week and destroyed the rest. It wasn't good for anything but keep me awake in a semi-zombie low-creative state. This very expensive drug/lesson was effective and making me realize I need to seriously work on my impulse control.
- alostpuppy 2y agoThat was a weird hype train when that happened around that one. I tried it and gained like 40 pounds.
