ADHD meds ≠ Anti-Psychotic meds.

Just so you know. Because it doesn't seem like you know.😬

Yeah this person is on the warpath, it's really weird.

The meds these people were supposed to be taking weren't for ADHD, (as a medic I MIGHT know a bit more about these medications than you). You don't chase people with ADHD naked down the street.

Just so YOU know...........

That's what I'm saying. You're making the comparison between people not taking their Anti-Psychotic meds and people not taking their ADHD meds.....not me.

Those are the people who need a social worker the most. They are supposed to be checking in on these poor people far more often than they do to prevent them from needing me to chase them down or me getting assaulted by them in the first place.

But again, you ain't never going to see a social worker working outside of a 9 to 5 office.

Any credibility you had was washed away with that comment. Sorry, but a medic is bupkiss as far as medical knowledge is concerned but I do concede that you will have had extraordinary medical training compared to the average person.

You mentioned that you are retired. Things are most definitely different now than they were even 5 years ago. The severity of the problem, the number of people affected, the costs, it's all worse. That said, we are also finally TRYING to fix it now that enough Boomers have aged enough that Reagan's hatred for social care is no longer relevant.
