So glad we have experts here to tell us to do what we haven't tried yet: just get better.

Wikey nailed it, stop being a pussy and deal with it. Real ADHD is very extreme and rare. It's overdiagnosed and drugs are overperscribed It's so fucking easy, people just do it to get the speeding/smart pillz

That it's rare doesn't mean that no one has it.

Ah yes, I've failed classes and ruined interpersonal relationships before because I was just being a little silly about having stuff to do. Good to know! That's what I used to figure before this seemed like it explained nearly everything!

Hey if it helps you, more power to you.
I'm of the belief that you should be able to put whatever the fuck you want into your own body.
I'm more shitting on the doctors who are loosey goosey with script pad

Sure, but the majority of people I know that take it either:

a.) Abuse it
b.) Sell it

I had a shit ton of friends that had it prescribed then they stopped taking it...and guess what? They were fine! None of what I said was targeted at Rose as obviously I don't know her exact situation. I'm just super skeptical after all I have seen with adderall and vyvanse

Even *I'm* not gonna argue on this one.

That's fair. Like I said, that doctor that thought everyone should take antidepressants (not even a psych doctor. She was gastrointestinal) was nuts. Some doctors are like that, but I think that gets overstated and gets used too often to dismiss people's actual problems.

I know someone with schizoeffective disorder (aka: "Bipolar disorder? In MY schizophrenia? More likely than you think!) get completely dismissed as being "spirited" and imagining imagining the voices in their head, so psychology denial stuff always makes me very very :|

Yea I would never shit on schizophrenia and shit like that. It makes me wonder if ADHD can ever get treated with therapy.

Igor when he sees the chance to insert a moronic controversial minority opinion

lel it ain't moronic or controversial

Isn't it suggested by recent reports that something like 2/3 Americans are depressed?

Probably

only since 11/2016

'Quit being a pussy and deal with it' isn't quite what I was saying haha.

More that if you think you have a problem, there may be other options, and ones that don't involve medication.

Btw, just because an opinion is in the minority or controversial doesn't mean it is wrong. Not sure this is either tho

They had some questionable ideas about mental health 50 years ago, just sayin. Not comparing something like a lobotomy to taking pills, just that the consensus on what the best solution is is always changing.

Question for you guys, since this thread isn't just about mental health:

Is it healthy to drink every night?

Everything in moderation. I believe they say that the tipping point between benefit and hazardous to health is two-three "drinks".
