I obliquely was referring to how insanely priced Dexedrine Spansules are in America and they countered with (unknowingly) that generics are almost always available for basically every med in America. Which, they’re not outrageously (seemingly) totally out there but I dont think it totally captures how fucked US prices are for even the staples sometimes

    Fucking sad, the state of ADHD assessments/access. It abs should not be as fucking hard as it is. I was super priviledged in how mine went down in a publicly funded system (even then I wouldnt saybit was a cakewalk for someone way less adept at moving thru the system as I am) but i know tons of people even here struggle to get past even like referralc, let alone assessment+diagnosis+prescribed by GP

    America is god-level/boss-level ADHD land. It seems that system is alwaya fucking set up in a way that lets the elites do or get whatever they want easily and leaves everyone real behind in the dust
