    I’ve been “diagnosed with ADHD” and prescribed aderrall and even I don’t buy into it. Do I think it exists? Yes. But mostly as a result of environment. We all essentially have an information stream entering our head from the second we wake up til the second we fall asleep. We are never not distracted by something in the modern world. Then we wonder why we can’t focus for more than a few seconds on tasks that don’t interest us. Aderrall is literally just speed/meth so of course it gives laser focus but even more importantly, it makes even the most mundane tasks somewhat enjoyable. Using ADHD as an excuse to be useless in every facet of life is such a fucking cop-out. Laziness and zero ambition is such a foundational trait of everyone that falls back on their debilitating “mental illness”. My attention span and ability to commit to tasks is fucked but I fully acknowledge when im just being purely lazy and don’t shoves fistfuls of speed into my mouth to complete menial tasks.

    All these self diagnosed morons spreading “mental health awareness” which is really just circle jerk of useless people making each other feel better, need to diagnose a 12 gauge into their mouths.
