Maybe find a strategy that works without stimulants. You made yourself dependant to the failing healthcare and the greedy pharma industry. Now you feel it, they let you down.
You may not mean it that way but still: would you say the same thing to a person with diabetes?
I'm really fighting the urge for some very unkind comments in response to this.
Looks like @spankmonkey@lemmy.world has you appropriately covered there.
Best to just down vote and move on.
Maybe you should go fuck yourself.
Are advocating for NOT using healthcare for a healthcare need?
You strike me as real piece of shit.
I can't speak for op but I tried that for 40 years Take the meds.
This kind of opinion isn't welcome in here

Condescending"
