    Super interesting to me, particularly because I’ve noticed that some people I know who have ADHD just can’t get enough stimulation (like my boss who takes like 30 mg of aderall while downing multiple cups of coffee in the process)

    ADHD or not, that shit cannot be good for your heart lol

      Yes, that's a big part of what ADHD is. Also, 30mg of Adderall isn't that much

        Well yeah, but there is a point where enough is enough. Like I said, whether you need stimulation or not is one thing, fucking up your nervous system with cocaine-adjacent substances is another

        Then again though, maybe it’s a preferable alternative to the reality idk

          Cocaine and amphetamines are only related in that they’re both stimulants.

          Oral amphetamines are designed to correct an already existing imbalance in neurotransmitters.
