tweet by Johann Hari: The core of addiction is not wanting to be present in life, because pour life is too painful a place to be. This is why imposing more pain or punishment on a person with an addiction problem actually makes their addiction worse.
Straight up no, I need fucking dopamine so my brain can function. Sure home issues can EXACERBATE ones struggles but they are not a root cause. ADHD is a spectrum, and sure some may not have it to the same extent where adjusting one’s home life can reduce their struggles to the point where it no longer impacts their day to day, but that does not mean it’s a one stop solution for ADHD. In many cases, getting to a baseline where you can function REQUIRES medication. The fact you do not understand this shows your complete lack of understanding when it comes to ADHD, for your kids sake I really hope you decide to learn more about it or your gonna fuck that kid up by not allowing them to be properly prepared for their future. Ffs talk about complete ignorance thinking ADHD is solvable with a loving home.
