Apparently marijuana was in the files. They were speaking how people who smoke marijuana are harder to manipulate because it makes us open our mind and question things more, whereas alcohol does the opposite effect. Which is why alcohol is promoted while marijuana is demonized.

    Omg if you have add and haven’t gone the legal route with stimulants you do NOT even need to abuse them; like a fraction of a pill can change your whole goddamn life (if you’re lucky and sensitive to it)

      Not OP but I’m currently trialling my 4th brand of medication and seeing the worst side effects yet. Only one that changed things was adderall but it isn’t prescribed here, and I’m not extroverted enough to know any drug dealers.

        Oof; sorry comrade that sucks

        Edit: hey, if you’re not averse to “supplements”, I have found that 200mg L-theanine pills can help alter, alleviate, or shut off the effects for me. Like, if I take one with the drug it’ll be a bit less effective but a lot less side-effecty, or if I have one at the end of the work day it helps me switch off faster

      I keep hearing how life changing it is for staying on task and accomplishing goals, if I could just get the script, but since I can’t, there has to be a plant drug that could work, or a drug derived from a variation of a plant drug perhaps that I could order. Cathinones based on Khat sound great I know they have a lo of synthetics too but many if not all are illegal don’t know how that works exactly.

      There could be ephedra analogues, variations of that molecule even, I could give that a try again I guess, or if I could find a vendor that had it cheaper. Search engines don’t work well for this stuff anymore since 2021 when they enshitiified (more.)
