Amphetamine isn't exactly a placebo and its effects aren't exactly unknown or disputed. Asserting the possibility of placebo is like wondering if coffee is really just dark inert water but we're all just idiots with no self-awareness that buy into the oral tradition of what coffee is supposed to be. > I fear for myself that when facing similar hardship > that acquiescing to meds could just be "dealing with > the situation" and not properly processing what the > actual hardship is, why it exists, and how else it > could be dealt with. But the hardship is simple. It's the forlorn inability to focus and do. At the end of the day, we have finite lifespans and we have needs, desires, and ambitions right now. We know that flooding the brain with the amphetamine train works right now. By the time I was in my 20s, I was pretty tired of listening to people suggest that I was lazy or that I just didn't want it enough. Then I started taking 50mg of Vyvanse and it makes me want it all. I'll come brainstorm different coping strategies when I find out I'm immortal.
