    Because I’m annoyed as fuck. There really all I said was that medication is addictive to people with ADHD just as it is addictive to people who do not have ADHD and a whole train of Internet psychiatrists started jumping in trying to argue about it.

    The bulk of your first paragraph is ironic when that’s exactly what you did. I said addictive medications are addictive to everyone regardless, you jumped in trying to fucking debate that. I’m done. My only replied to this shit from this point on is being done through the block button. Goodbye now.

      that medication is addictive to people with ADHD just as it is addictive to people who do not have ADHD

      Because that statement is objectively incorrect. If it was addictive in the same way to ADHD as people without ADHD, then it wouldn’t be allowed to be prescribed. The possible negative total outcomes wouldn’t justify the treatment.

      I said addictive medications are addictive to everyone regardless

      No, your first claim was that addictive medications were addictive in the same way. Which is incorrect. If you had said “regardless if you have ADHD or not there is still potential for addiction”. Then people wouldn’t be arguing with you.

      The majority of the issue is that you keep fighting strawman arguments in your rebuttals and not what people are actually claiming is incorrect about your initial statement.
