I wonder who has seen this. It seems like a hilarious extension of a powerful amphetamine to a disorder that is principally psychological.

Sure there are issues of how neurobiological this sort of disorder in fact is. But anyone who has taken adderall/vyvanse or any of the Schedule II psychostimulants would be skeptical of treating just the behavioral aspects that results from suppressing hunger with a drug that does MUCH more, both good and bad.

There are two ways of dealing with obesity and disorders like that. Option 1 educate people, fund Programms that teach them about healthy life style and how to build a strong will. Possible side effekts people get smarter and maybe think about other problems.
Option 2 make a drug that does the work. People will stay stupid and continue an update healthy lifestyle. Possible side effekts pharma company's make a shit ton of money so does the entertainment and advertising industry. And bc some of them even pay taxes the state also makes a ton of money.

So why educate people when it costs alot of money and time and will create a better generation and generations in the future which will pay off in the future. When you can have medicine addicted stupid people you can make money off starting now and keep making money of their stupidity.

This whole world is going to hell pretty fast.

Some people may take this as a powerful appetite suppressant IMO. Any drug with other sides that may benefit another could well be used for that other purpose.

Oh absolutely. If your goal is to lose weight, amphetamines will help.

My gripe with this is that a drug like this got FDA approved for a disorder which has much less to do with appetite than it does with the the psychology associated with binge/deprivation cycles.

The solution? Suppress appetite so those with "binge eating disorder" can deprive themselves longer! To me, it's laughable that this was FDA approved.

Could maybe help to break the pattern, but, I agree - the whole system is horrifically flawed.

Oh I took it and yes it's a powerful appetite killer. So was meth. Those of you who have seen my before picture, amphetamines are the main reason I looked the way I did.

 

[integralbasic]

Haha I'm sure meth kills the appetite like no other

Not much of a pronounced difference between the two in terms of appetite suppression IMO.

How about set a long term goal. Eat right and train hard. No doubt in my mind that a person will see better results than the lazy assholes who pollute our board who think AAS are the only answer.

This is not to say that AAS don't play an important role in reaching our goals. There is no other way to the goal most of us have in mind, but I detest the fucks who come here and think that a needle is the only way. When in reality they are too lazy to ever reach any goal. Meso is no place for people of that mind. They will be small, fat and lazy for the rest of their miserable lives because that is who they are.

I just find it hilarious that out of all things for amphetamines to be fda approved for, they get approved for "binge eating disorder"! It says a lot about the incentives in the pharma industry and they way in which companies can push drugs on doctors with no recourse

Pharmaceutical companies made sure it happened.Just like they got a generation addicted to narcotics. And they charge us up the ass in the process so we can subsidize the rest of the world and keep drug prices down for them. It makes me sick.
