Oh fuck no, this take belongs in a landfill in hell

If you think like this you are not my people

David Bryan (@dbatp.org):

There's usually 100% correlation between the people who will NEVER for one second admit that a LOT of people taking these stimulants never actually needed them... and, the people who ARE currently taking them.

And they ALWAYS flip out at just the suggestion!

Sounds JUST like... #MethAddiction

I found them! How the fuck can I, as someone who has struggled most of my life for ADHD meds, be friends with this guy?!

This is real pathologizing people with drug issues pro-drug war kind of bullshit, "David Bryan."

I'm saddened that you turned out to be an asshole.

More insights into "David Bryan"'s drug views.

I confided to him that I self medicate my ADHD with pseudoephedrine and this is how he reacts.

take a lot of ephedrine (self medicating ADHD), so I'm just hyperfocused all the time.

"I take a lot of ephedrine"

Oh. I see.

9:10 a.m.

It's cheap and legal in Canada.

9:10 a.m.

I frequently take pseudoephedrine. It's semi-legal here. Just have to present an ID to a pharmacist, as it's kept behind the counter.

9:11 a.m.

Same form that I take.

I guess its legality is a state by state thing because I heard it was banned in many states because it's used to make meth.

Me: "I self medicate my ADHD with pseudoephedrine (because getting ADHD meds even with a prescription is a clusterfuck)."

I don't know about you, but the most important thing I've learned about taking it frequently for me is, that it reliably and directly induces a state of anger. the
