Capitalist society certainly exaggerates our symptoms, but doesn't cause them. Telling us we're methheads because of capitalism is not a good look.

I finally got my medication refilled this week after rationing/being out for several months and a thing I said out loud today was "I'm so glad that I don't have to skip my weekend doses anymore so I can actually feel like myself and do things tomorrow" but yeah sure it's purely for functioning under capitalism
No need to discuss how when I'm unmedicated I have a hard time focusing on things I like to do for fun, like writing and reading, or how I literally can't think of my basic preferences like "what food do I like to eat" or "what do I like to listen to" so my sense of self is super eroded compared to when I'm, you know, getting treated for the disorder that makes me unable to function. But lol yeah it's all capitalism huh
I appreciate my unmedicated days sometimes tho. Usually one day a week it's nice to sleep in. Back when I had to participate in society, if I didn't take it first thing in the morning, I wouldn't take it because it keeps me up too late.
I skip on the weekends if I can just so I don't build tolerance. If it's a day when I'm at home and I really don't have much to do, it's not really a big deal.
Basically what I do. Why would I want to waste it if I'm just gonna be playing Smash and fucking around with new linux distros in a VM?
