Saw a 6k upvotes - “before and after, artist drawing on ADHD meds” post

I know this is discussed ad nauseam here, but it’s really driving me nuts lol.

I saw this post basically showing the “before and after” result of taking ADHD meds artist drawings, with the post med result WAY more complete and better quality.

6k upvotes, top comments all promoting ADHD meds as their savior to getting better as an artist, and the rest saying they’re considering using meds to get better. I even saw one that said “take your meds people” that had tons of upvotes.

This is in like in a beginners drawing subreddit… nothing to do with mental health or anything?

It’s really insane how much Reddit is biased towards ADHD meds? Are they bots lol or just people thinking that meds = yeah more power to ya!

All the creative professionals I know including myself do wayyy worse on meds…
