He had significant uppers and downers in his system. Regardless of the crash, seems pretty clear Doc was an addict.

Even if the Adderall were the only thing in his system, if abused can lead to someone engaging in risky behavior which, ironically, is one thing Adderall is supposed to help guard against in relation to ADHD. It's basically meth at that point.

Hate to speculate but he could have also been taking so much because he was exhausted (from the other drugs or otherwise) and at some stage of tiredness it’s no longer helpful. In any event RIP

I didn't realize he had inpatient treatment for drug abuse, twice. Very sad to hear he was in pain.

RIP, Doc.

Time to react.

But is it time to OVERreact?

Thank God his kids or nobody else got hurt.

honey, i think its a great idea that you get a fighter jet and treat it as a hobby to break your depression and substance abuse cycle

sorry, that was mean

I was watching CNN and this popped up square in the middle of all of the Covid updates.

Seemed like a good guy. Didn't know him obviously. I feel even worse now knowing he absolutely should not have been operating that toy plane. RIP and his pain is over. Even those kids knew what he was doing was fucked up. Still remember him in the positive light. Narcotics and pain killed him as much as the pain.

So sad for his wife and kids having this out there.

There’s a normal high dosage of adderall and there’s 10x the therapeutic level of adderall which I assume has to have nasty counterproductive side effects.

Not necessarily if you’ve been taking it for years

You seem to have a good grip on substance abuse and depression. It’s a real shame he didn’t run his feelings by you. Could have solved it all.
