You can block it and measure consumption. This is easy.

> 2. antidepressant

Originally stims weren't suppose to be used if someone is depressed. But now heaps of people are on both. If you are spiking dopamine you are bound to have a crash and the symptoms of it. There is a lot of reports of this. This crash can feel like depression. So its like a cycle of one drug covering for another.

What is the _organ transplant event_ analagous to in an ADHD scenario? Does not fit.

Measuring consumption is NOT easy for someone with adhd. You are mixing different mental problems in a random garble of words that mean nothing. Also how does that not fit? its literally the same thing.

There are ample tools like screen time.

Imagine being on meds for 10 years and then realizing that what you really needed was to just block distractions more judiciously and set more deadlines.

The cause was the acute organ transplant. What is the acute cause for ADHD?

The cause for adhd is literally a disfunction of the dopamine receptors in your brain. You dont understand what adhd is like. "just block distractions lol". Like telling someone who is depressed "just be happy" or someone with anxiety "just dont worry about it".
