I am almost 40 and was recently diagnosed with adhd. I started taking Ritalin earlier this week and I have to say that I have been able to accomplish so much in my work that I was dragging my feet on before.
I work freelance, so I can just put off tasks until they are needed.
I told my brother about it today and found out that both he and his fiancee are also on psych meds. This applies to my wife’s immediate family as well.
As I said, the meds work for me and things have improved a lot, but why is society setup in such a way that such a large number of people need to be medicated to be part of it?
Anyway maybe this is more of a rant, but I also wonder what percent of people in your family are on some kind of psych meds.
You sound very tone deaf to the world around you, bro.
Can you elaborate on this?
Everyone is struggling financially because of the garbage pail kid running the country. Also, women and minority rights are being chipped away at. The deep Fucking divide among Americans due to religious bullshit prevailing via Christian nationalism.
Surely I don’t need to elaborate more…
They’re posting this to Late Stage Capitalism. Surely there is an implied understanding in the wider goings on with the world. In addition to all of the issues presented with a civilization that’s slowly collapsing, OP is also commenting how a lot of people are being medicated just to deal with it.
We aren’t all struggling financially, though we aren’t all Americans either. Biggest problems here are America and Russia influencing out politics, along with rich cunts.
