@jaspergregory A lot of them mention relying on benzos here on Twitter, and adderall seems like a staple drug for cranking out copy.

@St_Rev Adderall is a staple drug for getting through elite American Universities. All the Berkeley kids use it, apparently -
@jaspergregory Benzos suppress fear. Speed induces euphoria, heightens verbosity & aggression. Put those in ppl w/ tons of fear and anger... -
@St_Rev@jaspergregory speed can enhance those things, but if you actually have ADHD, it calms you down and makes you quiet. -
@ManCrack@jaspergregory I have ADHD, I used it for a long time. I don't think Valenti/Shanley/etc. do, though. -
@ManCrack@jaspergregory I'm thinking, you grow up with serious anxiety issues, you get an ideology that translates that into anger... -
@ManCrack@jaspergregory ...you get a benzo scrip for the anxiety, makes it harder to write so you start taking speed to compensate. -
@ManCrack@jaspergregory And everything synergizes nicely and you find a job being euphorically furious all day.
