The withdrawals are fucking garbage from even mild abuse (3x prescribed). I passed out and cut my head. And was anhedonic. And lethargic.

And I started taking it as an adult. So I had 4 or 5 ADHD diagnoses under my belt.

I literally did the thing you’re not supposed to do.

my psych kept giving me everything by Adderall. So I went to one of those online doctors and got Adderall through her.

Then I just told my psychiatrist that I have Adderall prescription and she took it over.

For the record, she’s actually really reasonable and I like her but very conservative about the stimulants. Which when I finally got them were a revelation. Medication that actually works.

The latter gives me dopamine. The former gives me carpal tunnel.

I’m satisfied bouncing between the free tiers of Claude and ChatGPT

I usually only have like a few hard questions per day, where I have lots of unknown unknowns.

If the LLM doesn’t get me an answer within the free tier number of messages, it’s not gonna get there

I had no choice most of my career doing Rails.

Now I do C++ and I would fight to the death to keep autocomplete.

But Copilot I bought a license for a got a refund for after a few months. In the net, it wastes your time.

And I mean, copilot in particular is especially bad. It refuses lots of valid programming questions. Other LLMs are better. But they still are wrong a lot.
