    Dude, so fucking real. I just got denied meds because “If you can learn a big part in a play, then you must have very mild adhd.”

      I’m convinced that most psychiatrists and psychologists have control issues that they satisfy through their practice. It makes them feel powerful to be able to gatekeep, judge and implicitly control their patient’s life and get paid for it.

        Man if I was a doctor I’d probably get my control kick by giving people what they want and making them happy.
