Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

In theory you could take small doses of street meth.

It's still addictive, but I think much less so if it's taken orally. Would probably help the ADHD but also make you super euphoric, if i had to guess... Pretty bad idea overall though.

Methamphetamine is still prescribed for ADHD in extreme cases. "Street meth" is exactly the same but with more impurities (assuming it hasn't been cut with other drugs like fentanyl). It would be much worse for you because of all the harmful/carcinogenic impurities, but not any more addictive or euphoric (again, assuming it's not cut with opiates)

edit: This is assuming, like the other commenter mentioned, that you stick to taking it orally. As soon as you change the route of administration to bypass the liver on its first trip through the blood stream (meaning literally any other RoA), both the "rush" and addictive potential get much larger.

The other commenter? I'm the one who said take it orally...

As I said it's a terrible idea, but it would probably help ADHD symptoms.

Sorry, I edited my comment on mobile so I couldn't see your comment directly and I wasn't sure if it was you or the person above you that said that.
