    Prescribed is the key word here. How fucking stupid do you have to be to miss it? Person is probably a royal hater in all things.

      How fucking stupid do you have to be to miss it?

      D.A.R.E. and similar anti-drug propaganda of the 80s, plus the more naive naturalist movements of the 70s-00s, really pounded in the idea that any kind of medication is bad for you.

      Curiously, however, you don’t see people chasing around the CEO of the company for taking heart pills.

        As someone who went through the D.A.R.E program, I can see that, but man. Growing up and experiencing the real world should have opened some eyes, lol. Maybe I put too much faith in humanity.

          It’s not humanity that’s the problem. It’s a very narrow selection of people who have an interest in misinforming the rest for their own profit.

      It’s because coworker used to buy Adderall in college so they think of it as something cheaters use.
