Bcz people don't actually understand that ADHD is a debilitating condition that I wouldnt wish on my worst enemy. (I don't have any enemies tho bcz I'm an adult :P)
I think some people are just trying to score Ritalin
Ah there you have the root cause
Don’t be surprised when this kind of response is met with hostility.
I mean, read the room.
Which is of course reason enough to withhold it from the people who need it and to doubt their experience at every turn. /S
It's true that, for people who don't have ADHD, the meds used to treat it can be misused for 'recreational purposes'. For people with ADHD however, is not a party drug. Infact, it has the opposite effect's (generally).
No I'm not saying they're using it as a party drug, they're using it to focus on school and work and stay up late. People do it in the tech industry all the time
Every person with ADHD I have met has related heavily to my struggles with simply staying on my prescribed medication, you should reevaluate what you think you know about the disorder because you seem really ignorant.
I was diagnosed with ADHD and ODD when I was 8, but haven't taken the meds in years
lol the ODD explains it all.
Bye bye now
Wow pretty ableist bro
Ritalin is a nightmare drug, so no.
