The simple answer seems sufficiently explanatory. Psilocybin is burended by its history as a recreational drug. That creates pockets of motivated advocates against it in a way that doesn't materialise for most drug candidates.

Adderall is just speed, which also has a long history of recreational usage. It was a widely used recreational drug decades before it began being used for ADHD.

Is actually super high quality medical speed. Like - if u want the proper stuff, u get it from the licensed distributor. End of story.

There is so much anecdotal evidence that micro-dosing psylocibine actually relieves ADHD symptoms.

Note: my iPhone autocomplete does not even recognise psylocibine as a proper word.

it's also very easy to produce (grow) at home, further decreasing $$$ potential for big pharma.
