I’m calling Ellie out here. She’s literally saying that it is “scary” to give kids ADHD medication, which is irresponsible and ignorant.

Laughing in sympathy to #3 because the struggle to keep your script current when you have ADHD is intense!

I’m in college and I have so many people asking for some of my meds. Like okay:

People ask me for it all the time. “Please sell me some! I want a very slow consistent release that gives me almost no euphoria!”

Agreed! I hate the constant stigma of it. People automatically act like you’re on some sort of illicit substance. I failed out of college after 2 years after I coasted through highschool. Finally got diagnosed in my early 20s and sailed right through my bachelors degree with an almost perfect GPA. I went off for a few…

All of this. My parents didn’t allow my doctors to prescribe stimulants when I was in school, partially because of the pearl-clutching that surrounds ADHD diagnosis and treatment in children, and I straight up suffered for it. At 26, I’m finally on the right stuff, and it’s a game changer. People who want to side eye…

Amen. Can people please demonstrate a little nuance when writing about ADHD and its treatment? Not to mention the upsides, like enhanced creativity, hyperfocus, increased physical and mental energy, etc. Or the interesting collision of gender socialization and neurochemistry in explaining how ADHD can present so…

I was coming here to say basically all of this. ADHD SISTERS 4 LYFE!!!!

You do realize that ADHD is a real neurobiological developmental disorder, and that stimulant medication has been shown many times to be the most effective treatment? Sure, stimulants may be over-prescribed, and idiot college students will get high on whatever they can get their hands on, but whatever personal…

I think it’s funny how people who don’t need medication to function normally are so eager to demonize it (not necessarily calling out Ellie here). Yes, the pharmaceutical industry is problematic as HELL but that’s more a result of combining capitalism with medicine than it is something inherent to the concept of…

Yeah, agreed that controlled substances shouldn’t taste like candy. That is asking for trouble.

“I’m not a big fan of controlled substances that come in forms that can be easily abused—and certainly a chewable drug falls into that category.”

Fallin, an anti-abortion Republican, vetoed the bill today because she didn’t believe it could withstand an (inevitable) legal challenge,

“Sanders supporters doxx woman’s phone #, suggest public execution, when she insists on following established rules”

“Sanders campaign becomes unhinged because they were not allowed to subvert Nevada primary results”

For the life of me I will never understand how people can be too ignorant to see that committee that disqualified Sanders delegates also disqualified Clinton delegates. How did they miss that part? And that committee was staffed by an even split of Sanders and Clinton supporters and chaired by a Sanders supporter.…

Bernie voters = college students who want their grade changed because they didn’t read the syllabus, or because they thought they did better, or they worked really hard and deserved a better grade, or because their GPA is important, dammit, and how dare you screw this up?

It’s like watching a temper tantrum. And fuck Weaver. That guy is such a complete wanker; it says a lot about Sanders judgment that he continues to let this guy be his spokesperson.

The Sanders supporters tried to steal those delegates fair and square, why is the system rigged against them?

Yes. If only there was a way for former rivals to unite behind the leading candidate and help bring their supporters in. I guess that won’t happen though, and it’s all her fault!
