Of course my pharmacy can't get the stuff due to the shortage so I have been without for 2wks now. It's a process to have the Rx sent over to a different pharmacy. Easy for someone normal. But ADHD without meds? Yeah.

What's that? You can message through the app to refill all the other ones easily but not the magic one requires calls and in-person visits to remember and juggle? Cool cool cool.

And stimulants are insanley addictive, terrible for you, and make you go crazy

**in a non ADHD brain

Stimulates are not as addictive for people suffering from ADHD because it physically effects us differently. If you have ADHD then you have issues with negatively skewed dopamine responses and stimulates help by inhibiting the reuptake of dopamine causing the dopamaturgic response to seem more powerful than what it is (because again I can't stress this enough the dopamine response does not function correctly) (source)

i understand the sentiment and I appreciate the irony but medication is only as much a 'cure' for ADHD as 'having no legs' can be 'cured' by a wheelchair.
