I don't want to end the use of stimulant medications. Nor do I want to suggest there are not correlations between certain groups of people and those who benefit from drugs. Nor do I want to deny people have differences in neurotransmitter levels.
My issue is primarily with the jargon of calling such people "disordered". It's just such a crass and unnecessary subjective judgement. I reject the entire framing as an attack on my person and an insult to my face. Just because I can become hyper-smart by taking some drugs doesn't mean I'm disordered.
