    Is it still a drug withdrawal if that’s how someone was before they started the drug? Because people with severe adhd are just like that.

      Thankfully severe cases are the minority.

      But even in severe cases, I think Now that we have the option to work our way up the ladder to adderall and dysoxin(?), we should have all future diagnoses go up that ladder.

      Obviously people who have been on adderall for decades are probably going to have a bad time if they are switched to bupropion immediately, but adderall shouldn’t be the default that children have to offramp from.

        Thankfully you aren’t in charge of others medical decisions. What is most likely to be effective should be the default.
