Is it really just because of the fentanyl situation? I know there is a huge disagreement with how the strict rules for prescribing opioids are so tight even for chronic pain patients like myself who can’t participate in life without em struggle to find a provider who is willing to prescribe us them.

    Yeah I’m not aware of any studies that link stimulant-based ADHD medication with abuse of street meth. But it’s a pretty common meme amongst doctors for some reason.

      I think it’s because of rampant Adderall abuse among university students. However, many doctors will prescribe something other than Adderall now like concerta or Vyvanse because they are harder to abuse.
