Literally have no idea what I think about them other than that it seems like a hopeless exercise. Its kinda worrying, like the meds can make you hyperfocus on things and make you paranoid but who knows, they could be right?

Altho it is a great bandwagon for the name brand dominating med companies to jump on, very easy to turn people away from generic meds that must have some baseline of quality assurance and clinical efficacy?

Uggh, just don’t know. Wish everyone could take the brand name cheaply like its easily possible to in many places outside the US. Dex cost me like 1.50 a pill before insurance and like less than 30 after total. Its almost 1500 in the states. Insane

    This is a community for people prescribed stimulants who’ve been negatively impacted by the “Adderall Shortage” and want to do something about it. The number of people who’ve had their lives derailed by this ongoing, seemingly unnecessary shortage is astounding. Besides difficulties filling scripts, many have experienced a significant/complete reduction in their medication’s efficacy. Together we can seek answers, collect evidence and work towards holding those institutions involved accountable

      The first half is reasonable, the 2nd bit is paranoid.

      People take drug, drug does thing, body/brain react and over time produce long term tolerance so honeymoon period with med ends.

      Surprised Pikachu face

      You see it in other drug using communities; it’s really common to see people say that the modern drug is nothing like what they took years prior, whilst ignoring their own neural pathways will have changed in that time.

      Personally I’ve found NAC helps, where it didn’t before when my meds still add their “magic”
