    Thanks to my wife I’ve come to learn that I probably have ADHD. I never would have realized it on my own, but it’s so obvious when someone points it out. If she has an extra cup of coffee she is buzzing and shaking for hours, whereas its basically a sedative to me. I can drink a whole pot and still pass out on the couch for a mid day nap lol.

        I’m looking for a bridge to purchase, actually, but as a CYA kind of thing I can only provide payment upon proof of delivery (which I’ll cover as well). PM me if you think we can work something out.

          I could get amphetamines on prescription if I wanted to, but I used medicine for a very actual medicine instead of getting high, so I dont.

        I mean, it’s more than just the coffee, lol. It could be that i obsessively dig into projects and hobbies and lose all sense of the passage of time and my bodily needs like hunger.

              How about a tiny bit of personal honesty and societal awareness?

                They don’t start you out on amphetamines. The stuff I’m on isn’t a stimulant and is not used recreationally.

      I’m not sure that this is universal. I’ve been diagnosed with ADHD, and ADHD drugs do help me focus. But I’m super sensitive to caffeine, too. If I have even a can of soda at night, I can’t fall asleep.
