-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Not the same, but according to wikipedia it is also sometimes used to treat ADHD
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methamphetamine
Its literally the first sentence of the "use" section.
Sorry i had no idea it was a thing in the US
The only reason I know this is, because one time I randomly read the wikipedia article about Meth. If it wouldn't be for this, I wouldn't have known this too.
yo me too
It's basically the last resort adhd medication. It's because the way we classify medication means that potential for pharmaceutical benefit (as recognized by the federal government) is a factor in whether a drug has legal uses.
This results in the fun scenario where heroin (general analgesic and other opiate traits), cocaine (topical analgesic), and meth (adhd and narcolepsy treatment) are all more legal on a federal level than cannabis, lsd, and psilocybin.
