there are freakout posts every hour or so on r/adhd. desperate plans to amass a huge petition of signatures, or challenge it legally with a class act. lawsuit, but mostly a lot of despair and disbelief. also some blaming of the so-called undeserved adderall users that are allegedly the official reason for the shortage...and something about tiktok users.
it's bad and capitalism is certainly the reason why. i'd like to understand the nuance of it more though if anyone had some good leftist takes on it.
Why would people with adhd abuse adderall? I'm not even clear if we chemically can abuse adderall bc it effects us so differently from neurtypicals.
It's basically amphetamine-lite with all the abuse potential.
