Just never really heard of anyone in all my years go to their PCP and get an “upper”. But have heard a bunch go to their doctor’s for something for less anxiety, make you sleepy, methadone, morephine hell even now weed. and again NOT SEEKING MEDICAL ADVICE. Only one I have heard of is a B12 shot but that’s probably replaced by the vitamin.

EDIT: 2 Hours later and this became an ADHD forum lol. Is that the only one?

    Depending on country, but most people with ADHD are pretty much prescribed meth.

    Hospitals even keep cocaine on site to use as a blood vessel constrictor.

      The most successful ones are stimulants yes. But methamphetamine is neurotoxic, and seldomly perscribed (though remains an option for reasons unbeknownst to me). The stimulants Methylphenidate ADHD Amphetamine salts are neuroprotective. But there’s also non-stimulants like amoxitine, guanfacine, clonidine, and bupropion, which are not neurotoxic.
