I do this thing where I look at every meme and ask myself: “does this meme effectively sell a product?”

And if the answer is yes then it’s kind of a shit meme, mate.

Luckily this one is ambiguous because it doesn’t sell a specific product, it just says that OP got some vague treatment.

I don’t have any treatment, actually

No need for cynicism here. This meme accurately describes how it feels to be on ADHD medication. It is revolutionary and life-changing. Some people need it. Some people don’t.

Some people will experience negative outcomes, and almost all users will experience some side effects.

It is a product that people pay money for and a meme should never be the deciding factor in whether you take it or not. It should always be a discussion between you and a qualified physician and you should always weigh the pros and cons before and during the treatment.

Imagine if the same memes were here promoting Hydrocodone and Oxycontin for pain relief, as I am sure they do on forums and social media for construction and factory workers.

Cynicism can often be useful to protect ones self and others.
