As a pharmacy worker who also has ADHD, I simultaneously feel bad for every fellow neurodivergent who relies on prescriptions - especially the controlled ones - and am so resentful that our system (US) makes getting meds so difficult that, crippled as I am, I find it better to go without prescription treatments than to rely on something that I know is going to be full of disruptions.

I also made the executive decision years ago to avoid prescription dependence after hearing about all the reports of Occupy protesters having their medications confiscated by police. Our healthcare system is weaponized.

The worst thing for me is the meds require being consistent. Something that is fucking hard to do with ADHD. It's cruel.

Exactly. I once made the mistake of quitting adderall abruptly once I ran out. Huge mistake. It kicked off a deep, constant depression that lasted I think at least a year. Ended up dropping out of high school soon after.
