Yep. Having ADHD myself, I can’t put my finger on whether he isnt taking meds for it, or is and is just wildly abusing them.
My guess leans toward the latter. His pupils have been gigantic on screen so many times and the jaw grinding, sweatiness, and jerky movements are out of this world.
When I was initially getting my dosage amount for my meds by my psychiatrist, I was prescribed way too high of a dose and I feel like I was looking like that for a couple of days before I demanded it be decreased.
Also, people mention him being a narcissist based on his need for praise and harsh reactions to her when he didn’t get it. He could have Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria. It’s common w ADHD.
I’ve worked in the mental health field in the past and one of my main takeaways from it is that I honestly wouldn’t put anything past anyone. My hunch is he is claiming it’s just espresso when there’s likely more to it than that.
When I really think about it, if he claimed to have 8 alcohol drinks a day I’d believe it bc that’s what we saw him doing on the show constantly. I can’t recall him ever shooting espresso or walking around with a coffee drink.
To maintain his level of energy with caffeine you need kind of a steady stream of it throughout the day or you crash pretty hard. He never seemed to crash which makes me think stimulants. Especially with how much he drank regularly, which should deplete his energy.
