e number foods in the 80s?

Also caffeine was the opposite for our family. Soda addictions is just the teasing version of actually using amphetamines to get your shit together lol.

Yeah it was a thing, additives and the like, was told it was making my hyperactive, well several of them were to be avoided, e110,e117, buggered if I recall what they were. There was a book that listed them all. Yeah, I found when I used to blast the goodie l coffee all day I was much more able to focus at work, it hindsight it kind of makes sense

It really is a shame how much energy was spent back in the day using home remedies to 'cure' hyperactivity while just full on ignoring doctors constantly all while doubling down saying you were just fine and normal the entire time too.

The weird part is being nearly 40 now and seeing so many of my adult family members have issues with ADHD themselves lol. Like fuck mom, you go through a case of Mt Dew in a few days and used to pop acetaminophen like Pez. Tell me again how an Adderall or Ritalin in the morning would've been worse.
