    For me this was ADHD meds. I was always lacking, but ever since I self-prescribed darknet amphetamines I’m much happier. Therapy wasn’t shit for me, I’m glad it helps others but I never had any trauma and I feel like it’s too over-prescribed instead of drugs that fix the issue.

      It’s hard to know this by yourself. I’m assuming you’ve been through the process but I wouldn’t want others to assume they could self-assess this at all - it’s not possible.

      and I feel like it’s too over-prescribed instead of drugs that fix the issue.

      I think generally the sentiment is that america over-relies on drugs to fix mental health problems. But I can understand that if you have a chemical imbalance or need drugs that it would seem like there are a lot of hoops to jump through before you get there.

        That’s fair, in the UK there’s the opposite problem, getting a script for drugs that fix the issue is nigh-impossible, instead you get told to go attend CBT sessions for a broken arm
