Not to mention the stigma, especially from unrelated doctors who see the med in your file.

A red button. Image says: 'Would you press the button?' [results of pressing the button:] there exists a pill that makes your disability a LOT less debilitating BUT it's near-impossible to get because the non-disabled enjoy taking the pill for fun and the government doesn't want them to.
I mean...I guess there would be a stigma attached, but idk anyone who's a loser enough to really care. Adderall is great for people with debilitating ADHD, and it's also wonderful as a party drug with relatively few negative side effects (if not abused).
People need to be less dumb, lose the stigma, open up the supply & legalize it....as somebody else said an "adult" with $20 can go buy a handle (1.75L) of alcohol/liquid death with no guard rails, so what exactly are we so scared of, here? People getting the drugs they need? People more alert & honed in at their job? People having lots of fun at a party?! Oh my god, we simply can't have that. ๐
Don't be dumb. Just don't be dumb, yes, it really is that simple. Legalization will inevitably bring about regulation & moderation.
Guess I'm a loser for caring that doctors have refused to treat me unless I go off the ADHD meds then
Doctor's who don't suck at treating anything that requires controlled substances are few and far between. Many are ignorant about the actual laws governing scheduled substances so they just try to minimize prescribing any even if it means worse care for the patient.
