Elon’s “extremely hardcore” toxic work culture means people are forced to take Adderall without a prescription to meet their workload. Just ask SpaceX employees.
"Some SpaceX workers resorted to taking Adderall to keep up with the pace of work at the company’s launch facility, and others found themselves falling asleep in the bathroom during long workweeks, a recent Reuters investigation found.
“Travis Carson, a former SpaceX worker at the company’s facility in Brownsville, Texas, told Reuters some workers took Adderall — a stimulant designed to help people with ADHD improve their focus and concentration levels — without a prescription to keep up with the pace of work.”
What a nightmare!

Meth is short for “crystal methamphetamine.” Adderall is made of four different amphetamines. All amphetamines are stimulants. You’re splitting hairs here.
They are not the same in terms of the euphoric high that meth has and Adderall does not, so Adderall tends to be less addictive.
However, long-term use of Adderall can still result in physical dependency and withdrawals when coming off of it and is a stimulant much like meth.
And cholesterol is technically a steroid and an alcohol, that doesn’t mean, someone is roided and drunk from eating eggs.
It’s not splitting hairs to say that two things are different. It’s just a wrong statement.
The point wasn’t about chemical similarities, but rather, to challenge the perspective about ADHD medicine.
As someone who takes Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) daily, I can say it has improved my life. Some people will assume we’re just junkies with a script, and while some certainly are, there are people who need it function.
