there are freakout posts every hour or so on r/adhd. desperate plans to amass a huge petition of signatures, or challenge it legally with a class act. lawsuit, but mostly a lot of despair and disbelief. also some blaming of the so-called undeserved adderall users that are allegedly the official reason for the shortage…and something about tiktok users.

it’s bad and capitalism is certainly the reason why. i’d like to understand the nuance of it more though if anyone had some good leftist takes on it.

If you’re prescribed extended release, Vyvanse, or some other form of medication you won’t be nearly as impacted by the shortages. One step at a time though, it’s good to get a better understand about yourself with the psychiatrist!

Could be it, I’m pretty low dose in a large city and haven’t had any difficulty
