    Wow, what an insightful argument that totally proves me wrong.

    I’m not here to convince anyone. I’m just pointing out very simple facts. It’s not your choice if you believe it or not. You’ll still know it.

    I’m not against adults using methylphenidate if they feel a benefit from it.

    But don’t try to have your cake and eat it too. You’re taking the meds because you’re addicted, not because you need them. If you actually have a disorder and need them, then thats different. But most of the people taking them don’t.

    Facts are facts no matter what you feel about them. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    Would you like to guess how many recently graduated dctors also believed in the same childish rhetoric? A worrying amount. Like genuinely made me worried that low level propaganda gets through better than basic medical facts which doctors of all specialisations should understand.

    It’s line claiming heroin doesn’t cause dependence. That Oxycontin doesn’t cause addiction.

    You know that pharmacompanies have strongly pushed both of this. Yet you won’t question literally half the population having a neurodevelopmental disorder, because YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT HAVING ONE MEANS.

    The percentage of increased diagnosis through increased information is the same for every other neurodevelopmental disorder except attention disorders. Those have supposedly grown quadruple the amount that any other neurodevelopmental disorder has in the same time. (That is, in roughly the past 100 years to account for enough change.)

    Anyone who’s having a hard time understanding that attention disorders are overdiagnosed is a gullible moron. That includes all the doctors who argued I have it. Despite me showing I was alway literally the best in my class, without any disturbances, nor problems, not any I subjectively experienced or that the teacher would’ve noted. I also went through roughly 10 different schools, and has a large sampling of teachers and classes.

    Never heard anything about any attention disorders before the age of 25, a bit more than a decade ago, when all this bullshit pushing began.

    To not be able to see when someone is pushing drugs on you for no reason is gullibility to the max.

    Its ludicrous.

    Oh and yeah, the past few years young doctors haven’t pushed the adhd rhetoric on me. Had to waste an entirely afternoon proving I don’t have it with clinical psychologists and my mom there to verify what I’m saying.

    But you know it’s overdiagnosed, but as long as society accepts it as your meds and not something you just crave, youre gucci, right?

    Roflmao

    Oh and there’s the first to signal disagreement without being able to say anything except “wyaaa I don’t like you pointing out facts wyaaa”

    Look up what a neurodevelopmental disorder is. Just because pharmaceutical grade speed makes you less tired doesn’t mean you have a neurodevelopmental disorder.

    The worst part isn’t your delusions, it’s having to listen to you trying to rationalise wanting to take speed.

    And even actual professionals buy this shit it’s ridiculous

    Ah yes, the neurodevelopmental disorder that is so light literally eveyone has it.

    And not one of you realises it’s just a legal way to sell pharmaceutical grade stimulants.

    “Here, eat this amphetamine pill.”

    “Ok”

    “Do you feel like you have more energy after eating the pharmaceutical grade stimulant?”

    “Yes”

    “This means you’ve always had a neurodevelopmental disorder”

    Genuinely, you can’t be that fucking stupid. And theres always the addicts who get super angry at me for saying this out loud, because they know I’m right.
