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.
Okay but a lot of people start taking meds later in life and realize they've been shackled by a million tons of disability the whole time. The only reason i don't take stimulants for adhd is it triggers my bipolar mania instantly. I do take strattera for it.
Adhd meds are a tool for relieving the burden of a serious disability causing condition.
