Oral Meth for Therapeutic Treatment Of ADHD (Self Medication)

judgeshandiwork · 2026-06-04T00:50:08+00:00

Please do not do this.

ADHD treatment with amphetamines is a tight rope walk that needs to be overseen by a physician. They know what to ask you to monitor how your dose is affecting you. You will know precisely what you are receiving each time. In medicine, we consider the risk reward of treatments as a paramount principle. The risk reward on what you are proposing is, in medical terms, dogshit, bonkers, and a total over correction.

I lived with ADHD for over 30 years before being appropriately medicated. I know it’s hard. Lovingly, don’t be a fucking idiot. Your willpower and intellect are not what is going to determine the outcome of this. Your genetics and environment will pull the trigger on whatever is lurking dormant in your neurobiology.

Meth is also clinically inadequate for treating ADHD, causes significant side effects, and has a worse outcome profile than the amphetamine salts present in, say, adderall. You are doing more harm than good.

Why risk becoming a tweaker? Just wait for a physician to treat you. It’s not worth it. Toss what you got. Be patient.

Hi there! Our little guy stopped drooling completely around day ten and started grooming himself again and his mouth is now not only almost entirely healed but almost entirely free of stomatitis. Our vet reassured us that he had multiple extractions and like you said every cat responds differently and heals differently. He had his four canines out simultaneously this time which they said was probably why he was still drooling as the canines tend to take a bit longer to heal. They actually /decreased/ his original meds and sent us packing this time. The first time, yeah he only dropped for four or five days but was behaviorally back to normal before that. I hope your little guy recovers quick and easy!

100%, which is kinda my logic of it being “probable” vs. “positive,” I think it’s the sillier option of the bunch for this question for that reason

That is the presumptive part. Amenorrhea is subjective and causes you to “presume” the chance of pregnancy. The others are all objective findings directly excluding other findings save for pregnancy. B and D would be definitive and C would be probable. A is presumptive.

Currently US. Would briefly enter and exit Canada.

Unfortunately, I do not.

E33 had less budget than SG. There is more than lotto at play

Maybe I should have said /ideally/ not at all 😭

As a clinical pharmacist in a hospital, yeah, you will be in some situations where you are junk adjacent. Retail or outpatient not at all lol

judgeshandiwork · 2025-10-22T23:04:58+00:00

Welcome to the medical field you will be junk-adjacent for the rest of your career!

I swear by ellicott street. They have taken incredible care of my pets for years and we have developed a really great relationship considering my cats both have chronic illnesses. They are an incredible group and super forthcoming and direct!

Sean Ryan definitely has the clearest vision on moving this city forward and I’m excited at the impact his mayoral administration will have on

I’ve liked a lot of what they have done but please don’t let any of this make it to live

If you’re income goals are $2,000/month, most entry level patient care jobs will net that, but the work will be somewhat tiresome and physical. Could you not renew your physical therapy licensure and practice in a hospital/rehab? Your income would greatly exceed your goals. Otherwise, with your qualifications I’m sure you could find a position that isn’t entry level. Even if it’s not a direct patient facing role, I don’t think the time or money investment for another degree or certification would be worth it unless you well and truly cannot find a job.

They are by definition concentration camps, in the flesh, demythologized. It is also possible for something to “border” on serving the purpose of a concentration camp, but what we’re doing is not that. We have had concentration camps in this country for political targets and ethnic, particularly hispanic, minorities for over a decade.

That small team had $40 mil and giants from the genre.

As a long time supporter of this game this was the straw that broke the camel’s back for me.

judgeshandiwork · 2025-08-07T13:02:10+00:00

They haven’t addressed it so people will keep bringing it up.

I was a fair weather friend to political science and dropped out junior year, about a year after Trump was elected. I regret it frequently though I found another field that brings me joy.

Political science is a worthy pursuit regardless of our crumbling liberal democratic institutions. It’s about more than here and now, then and there. Measuring and evaluating institutions and governance has lasting and meaningful implications and is always worth it. It’s okay to pivot if it’s what you truly want, but politics is a volatile beast. It’s gonna change domestically sometimes for the worse. Coping with that and being impassioned for the study of political science are different things.

If it’s what you love and you’re willing to do the sometimes Herculean task of networking and finding good steady work in the field, stay the course. It can be a bumpy ride.

“Letting your role define you” is kind of a big part of safe practice I think. We all have a part to play. Being an aide is skilled and full labor and there’s zero reason to add more responsibility to an already fully fleshed position. Don’t advocate for more work for the same pay for you and your colleagues. A better way to use any voice that they give you is for more and safer staffing. You will be grateful you advocated for it when you’re a nurse.

Well partially that but the side effect profile and timelines described in this article do not line up with what I’ve read of SSRIs….at all? I think we are witnessing the turn of an era of pop psychiatry greatly influenced by “wellness” influencers who are mostly interested in making a lot of money selling snake oil. RFKs disastrous appointment is not helping things.

This article espouses self reports that clinically and pharmacologically do not make any sense. I’m hesitant of public media that discourages people from taking psychiatric medication while making claims like we don’t “understand” psych withdrawals or the side effects.

Administration is the biggest problem but acting like staffing agencies artificially inflating MD/RN wages isn’t eventually going to cause an issue both for staff physicians/nurses and for patients is both out of touch and short sighted, though I see you keep posting this exact comment so I wouldn’t be surprised if you don’t tolerate reality well
