With caffeine and anger, I've found that dysfunction is possible.
I'm terrified to think of where I'd be without either.
I mean, the caffeine is scientifically proven to be completely ineffective self medication with worse long term health effects than the literal amphetamines that are actually effective.
On the other hand, it doesn't need a prescription, so
Sorry, what?
At what doses?
Yeah if someone's self-medicating with like 18 cups of coffee per day they're gonna have a bad time, but like 2 cups shouldn't wreck somebody. I feel like this needs more specificity.
(Although more than 4 cups per day will start leeching calcium from your bones, so watch out for that)
tbf I'd be dosing on caffeine even if I didn't have ADHD
