Wow, there is so much in this that I find interesting. A perfect episode to lose my Moral Mayhem virginity with.
I have been on stimulants (for ADHD) since I was 8. I never showed anyone my penis, but I am told that I was once sent out of class at age 7 for marching around the room yelling, "grandpa and grandma are sexing!"
Maybe being on stimulants damaged my development in some ways, but it at least helped me have a relatively normal school life with minimal public references to the sexual exploits of my grandparents.
Finally, I totally agree with Vaishnav's quip that everyone could benefit from some Adderall. I think we should put it in the water supply.
Lol, you’re funny. And we thought we were the only ones that said “sexing”. What do you think the trade off was for you ? Did you feel like it attenuated positive curiosity fueled experiences in your childhood ?
I... don't know. I tend to blank out my childhood, for various complex reasons.
I'm only 23, so my ideas about anything are simultaneously incomplete and 100% correct according to me.
I do have a basic theory that I suck at life partially because learning stuff at school was made easier thanks to stimulants, so I never learnt how to fail again and again and keep trying.
I have no idea if that makes sense, I'm drunk. As Lzzy Hale may have said, a little Moral Mayhem, Never hurt anyone, Now I'm coming undone...
For what it’s worth, my life got better with time, with a step change in my mid 20s and one more when I hit 29/30. I’m sure the latter was partly getting medicated but some of it was developmental, finding a job, that didn’t make me feel completely incompetent and worthless, and a great relationship.

V. wise: “I'm only 23, so my ideas about anything are simultaneously incomplete and 100% correct according to me.”
This touches on some really fundamental questions in psychiatry, I think. Also the British accent is truly glorious.
Thank you, thank you! Our British friends were less enthusiastic about my accent sadly when I demonstrated over drinks
