Because too many people in the UK let him get away with using the Cass Review to take away puberty blockers from trans kids (it's NOT complex how it works folks)

@alter_unicorn I've been a few days experimenting with not going to see if it affects in any way my producitivity (the extra energy) and what I've learnt is:
1. It's worse. Big spike in morning, bigger crash by 3pm.
2. Even more messed up sleeping pattern.
3. You can't really concentraet much when your heart is at 130bpm, while coding.
4. You need to work WITH your body not against it.
5. The early gym session it's the ANCHOR for NORMALCY for the rest of the day.
6. Elvanse always AFTER finishing the gym, not before. Can't work out during the peak. It makes me thrice as dehidrated and about to faint.
@alter_unicorn so this is a common thing in Elvanse, isn't it?
No exercise for many days =
1. random high HBPM
2. high blood pressure.
Go exercise =
1. Back to normal HBPM
2. normal, to low blood pressure.
But yes exercise and you just get the good sides of it and might even need a higher dosage.
anyone else realise they didn’t drink nearly enough water just as they’re going to bed and proceeds to drink the daily allotment without breathing to only have to go pee just as you find the sleep that’s been evading you for hours? honestly i’m done with myself. this is like every night #adhd
How do people on Elvanse cope with the extra tiredness they have in the morning ?
I feel like my physically productive hours (not to be confused with mentally productive hours) window has moved to 1 hour after taking the meds, bad for gym-going.
Pill-less I wake up and I have energy to stop a train, then deflate 5 hours later abruptly and then progressively which is why I go to the gym first thing.
With Elvanse, until the pills start working I wake up tired and deflated with no will to do anything other than carrying on sleeping.
Is this the same for you?
More and more, generative models are looking like productivity tobacco. Promoted by biased research, it’s addictive, harmful, and the little benefit it has (nicotine is a somewhat effective ADHD drug, for example) cannot outweigh the fact that it’s hurting us all, directly and indirectly.
This shit is already turning out to be one of the most harmful tech innovations of the 21st century. It needs to be regulated at least as much as tobacco, if not banned outright from most economic spheres
@baldur Your throwaway “nicotine is a somewhat effective ADHD drug” has me wondering whether the perceived increase in #adhd diagnoses in western countries in the last 40 years parallels the decline in tobacco use over the same time period. Were we all unknowingly self-medicating either by smoking directly or by exposure to secondhand smoke? 🤔
