Adderall IS medically necessary. Especially if you take it for narcolepsy. The general public doesn’t understand the complexity of ADHD, especially inattentive type. It’s not just hyperactive little boys who are impulsive, it is a disorder that can cause significant impacts to quality of life and even life in general for some people.

And it doesn’t just magically go away when you turn 18, in fact more and more women in their 30-40’s are being diagnosed because we were overlooked when we were children in the 90’s since people did think it was just for hyperactive little boys.

Then they look at those 30-40 year olds getting scripts at record rates and use that as justification to refuse to raise the supply limits. It's all absolutely maddening.

The C2 classification is becoming more and more unjustifiable. It's not fentanyl for god's sake.
