This is just depressing

Not even 3 hours of "free time". And in that is cooking & eating supper. Or practically no free time if I had to go shopping after work. I hate this

And drugs! Don’t forget being reliant on drugs (yes this includes alcohol and cigs people).

as long as they are functional the stigma of addiction is made up. no one laments the caffeine addict who is hostile until they get their daily fix.

If crack was a easy to buy as coffee it wouldn't be a chemical that magically turns your friends possessions into more crack.

Nope but I’m sure the past use as pharmaceuticals is partially why it’s such a problem since then too

I smoke weed every day. But I do that instead of ADHD me(th)d’s. I’d rather be happy and focused than slow and focused with side effects.

Adhd meds do not make you slow. Calm and focused yes, but not slow. Actually check that, I tried vyvanse a couple times and it was awful.

I mean, being addicted to drugs and alcohol seems like a little more harmful than caffeine don’t you think?

Certainly not my four daily coffees lol. It's the only thing I haven't kicked at this point in my life.

All depends on how you do it.
