A lot of drugs that give you uncontrolled mental energy will give you focus, insight or creativity, in short uncontrollable doses. In the same way that burning down a building will let you see into rooms that you never were familiar with before. For a short time.
I have heard that meditation can give you the same type of experience and insight without destroying you while you are doing it. I can’t say I know for sure, but I can believe it.

And that’s largely what ADHD medications are, they’re basically safer versions of meth to help give you focus. Meth use is a huge problem in my suburban area because housewives use them to increase energy levels to keep up with all the nonsense extracurriculars they force on their kids so they can show off to their neighbors.
That said, meth is extremely dangerous, and using any form of medication without medical supervision is also extremely dangerous. If you think you’re having focus problems that could be resolved with medication, go to your doctor to get a proper prescription and learn about the side effects.

suburban housewives on meth would be a great vice documentary….
it feels like just a rumor to me, a lot of people on meth think that everyone is on meth….
for example, how are suburban housewives scoring meth? is there a network? do they go to the seedy parts of town and find street dealers?
it’s possible, but doesn’t seem likely.sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 days ago
The same way everyone gets it: a dealer. The dealers in the suburbs are a bit more upscale than your typical dealer in the inner city.
