that explains why my mother took me off ritalin at 13 because "i didn't really need it anymore, probably" and boy did that make everything for the next fifteen years including university really interesting
There's compelling evidence that the reason kids were understood to "grow out of ADHD" is because it was mainly diagnosed in the sort of white boy who grows up to be a white man with a secretary or wife whose job is to do his executive functioning for him.

MANY prescriptions animals are put on (gabapentin comes immediately to mind) are human drugs. Paper prescriptions + the goodrx app for coupons will get you a lot of vet medicines for under ten bucks.
