How was that alluded to in the OP? Eating it isn't the same as injecting it. It's a normal ingredient in electrolyte drinks and rehydration salts. It's also prescribed for hypokalemia.

I don't understand this post. Salt doesn't mean sodium. NaCl and KCl are both salts, and this is a 50/50 blend with less sodium (Na) for the people who need/want that. Am I missing something?

Software development is very collaborative and often involves daily and/or weekly meetings and frequent calls with coworkers.

It's definitely too long of a sentence just to say 'ADHD is a superpower and society is bad.'

I'm not sure this is actually narcissism. I felt very similar throughout my teens, but it is something I grew out of in my early/mid 20s. I think there are a few reasons for this. Often, people just grow out of it, through brain development or just spending more time around other people. Empathy can also be intentionally strengthened like a muscle.

I studied psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, and logic to understand the general human mind. When you study a lot of things, you learn how little you know. You also get to see how much better other people are at certain things. I no longer assume I'm smarter than anyone else even if it's obvious in one particular subject or several subjects, because they are probably smarter than me in other ways.

I also saw a therapist and spent more time around other people. I made an effort to understand others' points of view, asking questions if needed, and really tried to imagine their life experiences and how they could come to feel or believe certain things. This will be an exercise at first but it eventually comes naturally for the most part.

The civil war was mainly because one of the mods went on Fox News, and it did not go well.

You can major in Liberal Arts at some schools, but many call it General Studies. It's basically for when you can't decide on a major.

Gen X and boomers still go to the Dr and undergo depression screenings, yet Gen X has roughly half the rates of depression as gen z and millennials. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9934502/

Millennials have higher rates of mental illness than previous generations. We are far from fine.

I have found this video helpful for my upper back and shoulder pain. He also has a shoulder impingement video where he mentions scapular stabilizers that might be more helpful for your needs but I haven't tried that one.

FYI, Ritalin (methylphenidate HCl) is not an amphetamine. Methylphenidates and amphetamines are considered separate drug classes for treating ADHD. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/treatments/11766-adhd-medication

No hard feelings. I did notice that the ministry documentation was written rather confusingly, so I can see how it could be twisted. It does say you can email them with inquiries at least.
