Did the Adderall help you keep your job/do well in life etc? I think if people could get adderall over the counter then everyone would start taking it. Even those without ADHD. They wouldn't know how to titrate the doseage as well.


But anybody can get adderall. They just have to pay off a doctor to do that. It's a rubber stamp. Dosage selection isn't any more difficult than ibuprofen and is mostly feel based anyway.


No, not everyone can get it. It is widely prescribed, but there are situations in which it is contraindicated and wouldn't be prescribed.


> not everyone can get it

Everyone can get it. Not everyone can get it prescribed. But I have previously-prescribed medication which I now just order in bulk overseas. Not because it’s cheaper (it is). But because the hassle of getting prescriptions filled every month is tedious.


Ok, I'll bite - how does one go about sourcing that? I have a similar ethic when it comes to DIY medicine, and do order some from alldaychemist.com, but they are a bit limited in selection. I'm assuming someone dealing in ADHD medication is a bit less public than that however (and as such a name would not be shared on a public forum like this), and I wonder how one goes about finding a reputable seller.


In the context of the thread and post, I’m referring to US prescription/pharmacies.
