You have a point.

RJ: Search on medline for "replacement therapy" or "substitution therapy" (with quotes) and "methamphetamine".

You'll find hundreds of studies of people with past methamphetamine abuse who received methamphetamine or d-amphetamine and did well. Print some of these out and bring them to your doctor, along with a print out of the patent for Vyvanse. The patent explains it plateaus shortly after the therapeutic margin of efficacy. So it's impossible to abuse, unless you define "abuse" as including taking the drug at therapeutic doses. It's also impossible to snort, or inject.

Your doctor will not read these, remind herself she's accepting your insurance, and that you didn't pay her $500 for the first appointment. But at least you'll be able to tell yourself you tried. =/

best of luck, novel

> I don't think its all RJ's falt. He was put on the stimulants at a young age and probably had no choise in the matter. They got him addicted to stims. And now that he's hooked they take it away from him and he can't function with out the stims/meth anymore. What is he to do? I'm sure there is no answer, except to take the meds to funtion now. If only they could ration the stims in a way that he could only get them one at a time.
