Even if Scientology deserves the credit for this understanding in Tom, they should not be promoted for any reason. Racketeering and blackmail is their game, and nothing else.
Are you being sarcastic? They make the Ritalin instant release so crumbly they practically break down into powder for you. If you snort one, (which I advise against because drugs are bad) you’d realize how fucking retarded society is. When I was using I’d rather have a handful of Ritalin than coke, I’d take mdma over either though. It’s euphoric and that’s not a good thing.
I honestly found it more intense than adderall. But I didn’t abuse the two enough to fully compare. They’re agressive. Then they have Dexedrine, and desoxyn. It’s literally prescription methamphetamine. Yeah dude they’re “street drugs” in comparison to abuse potential, potency, and damage.
We overprescribe the fuck out of stimulants. The current 6/12 criteria to meet the DSM adhd diagnosis fits most normal humans. Have you ever interrupted someone? Yeah everyone qualifies so everyone gets pills if they ask.
Some people might need stimulants but I’d wager 90% don’t.
No I mean SCIENTOLOGY'S two steps back. You said they know something, and I'm saying that's true, but how many bunk rituals and idiocy brought them to that conclusion.
One step forward, two steps back.
I think ADHD is an excuse to sell speed. You're preaching to the choir on that whole point, and I say that as an occasional recreational user.
Scientology has plenty of normal like self help, psychology, teambuiding bullshit. It’s not like they were ripping out cats intestines to divine that Ritalin is sketchy.
They have the normal sublevel of things that is pretty mundane life coach shit. “The Secret” seminar tier.
Being organized and having goals and being skeptical of drug pushers isn’t the real fun meat and potato’s of the cults human trafficking, imprisonment, murder, ect.
Technically it is more like regular amphetamine than methamphetamine so it is safer, though still not good for the mind or soul. However for some people it does in fact calm them down rather than amping them up with a speed high, and the drug was intended for such people whom it calms down.
I didn't know that one. Yes you're right desoxyn is based on meth.
Adderall and Dexedrine most resemble "regular" amphetamine. Though yes amphetamine and methamphetamine are similar, meth is more known to cause brain damage from the research I read long ago.
It’s not “based on meth” it is literally prescription meth. Doctors and administer meth and cocaine but thc is scheduled as more dangerous than METH.
As for your comment about brain damage. Ritalin and adderall both cause brain damage too, it’s just deemed acceptable level of side effect for the medical use. That’s the case with most stimulants due to serotonin if I recall correctly.
You’re trying to tell me how good and useful these are. I’d say 90% of the people on them don’t need them. Taking stimulants everyday should be seen with as much skepticism as taking opiates every day. It can be beneficial but for most it’s really harmful.
Never said how good and useful they are. Just explaining the facts. Ritalin, adderall and dexedrine are not meth and the damage from meth is worse from what I've read on the topic.
it IS still pseudoscience. all "psychology" is tbh. it's all psychobabble deep thoughtful words. sure, there are some things in there to make you think and help people, but psychiatrists are basically authorized drug dealers. they dont really TALK to you. it's just stuff to get you to take pills and have you dependent on them.
I read a lot of psychology books and a lot of them tend to agree actually that it's pseudoscience and anti intellectual. but it's still a lot of thought. and at the end of the day, if it helps a person or yourself? is it so bad?
the BAD thing is just giving people pills via a psychiatrist. instead of actually trying to help them. mending the mind takes a LONG TIME. sometimes years tbh. people dont have that type of patience. they want the quick and easy fix
I wouldn't say there is no such thing as a chemical imbalance. Just ask George Floyd. He was highly chemically imbalanced during his last moments on earth. What they have done, is what they have always done. They have taken a complex issues, and dumbed it down so much as to create a medium for exploitation.
As for those mentioned drugs. They don't mask the problem. They just straight up get you high. And people, young adults in particular, do not usually complain about being high.
Even if Scientology deserves the credit for this understanding in Tom, they should not be promoted for any reason. Racketeering and blackmail is their game, and nothing else.
So he's right for all the wrong reasons. Scientology would definitely know ALL ABOUT pseudoscience, wouldn't they? 🤣😆
Ritalin is a street drug. Hahaha!

Desoxyn is methamphetamine hydrochloride…

Yes Desoxyn appears to be meth.
I don't recommend doing any.
Now let's talk about the two steps back
More than most people, I would say.
It's hard to address a lot of the junk in these comments.
Ask youself (then find out if you are unsure), what is the difference between psychiatry and psychology.
it IS still pseudoscience. all "psychology" is tbh. it's all psychobabble deep thoughtful words. sure, there are some things in there to make you think and help people, but psychiatrists are basically authorized drug dealers. they dont really TALK to you. it's just stuff to get you to take pills and have you dependent on them.

In essence, why go to the park when you can just take a pill... -Kramer
Psychiatry has an absolutely insane history stuffed with torture, forced drugging, experimental procedures, imprisonment and murder.
Sounds like something else i may have heard of, a little thing called MK Ultra, which is what I think Psychiatry is ACTUALLY built around.
Surprisingly Scientology gets this one right.
