        @dgerard I’m probably missing something but what is it about these folk and Adderall? They can’t all have self-diagnosed ADHD… (having an actual psychiatric diagnosis thereof means that I’m just a mean-spirited gatekeeper who thinks people shouldn’t just decide for themselves that they have a serious mental condition and start popping random pills)
