This will sound wild as shit. But I went to visit a friend in Oklahoma. Where because of the lack of any good weed or beer (was all 3%) he convinced me to try meth....

I hit it a few times following his instructions to a T. He and his other friends had a great time. I remember pretty much feeling nothing remarkable.

I knew I had ADHD, I was diagnosed at a young age.

I didn't know that this drug wouldn't do shit and I was bummed but somewhat relieved.

I left his place about a week later since this was the tip of the iceberg with his drug use.

And I knew if I stayed I'd end up an addict like him.

Also tried coke the same trip, close to the same results. That dude ended up in jail and all kinds of other issues. Riding the bus to Austin was the best choice I could have ever made.

This was a friend of mine, except it was cocaine.

Oh. What mental illness do doctors prescribe cocaine for?

Normally not for brain stuff, but it's considered to have valid medical uses as a local anesthetic and vasoconstrictor in some cases.

Typically it's prescribed for ghosts in the blood, but can pull double duty off-lable for ADHD if amphetamine is out of stock at your local apothecary.

It's not that they prescribe it, but it's also a tell for the ADHD when coke don't work as usual either.

Depends, do you mean doctors today or doctors in the late 19th and early 20th century?
