Hey. Appreciate your time to respond to this. I'm not interested in any backdoors right now but wanted to learn some more about who can prescribe it and if anyone has had any positive or negative experiences with it relating to ADHD specifically. I've seen it has a lot of promise for things like PTSD, anxiety, and depression but didn't know what, if any, known benefits are for ADHD.

Yeah I definitely think the research is still lacking. I appreciate you taking the time to provide some feedback. I'll keep talking to my doctor but was looking into alternatives because I've tried several non simulants and simulants with little benefit other than my current one. The non stimulants seemed to not have any effect, even after trying them for about 4 months. The other stimulants still made my heart rate increase and one gave me the jitters but my current one has actually provided a lot of the benefits with the hassle to get it and the increased heart rate being the big down sides.

Hey thanks for the response. I'll look into more studies as I consider my options but nice to see that there may be legal ways to acquire them.

Good luck. Hope you like it. I never really used Twitter because I felt like it was hard to figure out how to use it to see interesting stuff in your feed. Then I tried Mastodon and had about the same experience. Not sure how it is now, but I tried a few months ago (maybe January or something) and there wasn't a ton of activity so it was stale after a few wks using it and I gave it up.

I've like Lemmy a lot better but I think that's because I always liked Reddit better.

Yeah but these are billionaires we're talking about.
