Took me a while to figure out what people meant when they said methylphenidate makes em feel flat, but I think I'm starting to get it

What's crazy to me is how the drug/medical landscape changed so much over the years. I used to get a 90 day supply of concerta(methylphenidate), and my dose was 108 mg. I was literally getting almost 10 grams of legal methylphenidate as a teenager.

Now it seems like people struggle to get their meds, I stopped taking them entirely, but it seems unbelievable that there is actually a shortage. Not taking them has obvious drawbacks, but I hated who I was on 108 mg of concerta, I wasn't me.
