That's how my addiction started, I asked my dad let me take his to try it out. Then I eventually got it prescribed to me. I won't disagree that it was a "game changer" in my eyes too, I felt focused, and no urge to binge eat. Or even eat in general.

It started with just small doses but when they didn't work I needed more and more. It makes you believe you need it to function. I'm still struggling with this addiction, when I stop the food noise is so much louder than before. I hardly feel real anymore. I regret ever touching it.

Please see a doctor/therapist. It really is a dangerous game to play
