"Bankman-Fried has been doing his best to remain focused during the trial for the past two weeks, despite not having his prescribed dose of Adderall during trial hours," continues the letter to the court. "Mr. Bankman-Fried has a history of Major Depressive Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder," Lerner wrote. Lerner added in his letter that Bankman-Fried had tried other antidepressants but said they were ineffective for his symptoms. Without his medication, Lerner warned the judge, "Bankman-Fried will experience a return of his depression and ADHD symptoms and will be severely negatively impacted in his ability to assist in his own defense." For nearly a year, there's been a nationwide shortage of Adderall, the popular stimulant used to treat ADHD.

His experience inspired him to focus his investment firm on backing psychedelic startups. But VCs, including Smith, are still betting big on startups in the space that seem especially promising. It wasn't until he tried psychedelics — including Ayahuasca, a plant-derived hallucinogenic drink, and iboga, an African root bark — that his mental health finally improved. Energized by his own experience, Smith reworked his cannabis-focused VC firm Ultranative into a one-stop-shop for psychedelic startups.

"It is unclear how a cooperating witness who has promised to testify against a defendant could be meaningfully threatened by nothing but their own statements being published by a reputable newspaper," Bankman-Fried's lawyers wrote. His lawyers also said the jail was not allowing Bankman-Fried enough computer time to review evidence and prepare his defense. In her writings, Ellison described feeling "unhappy and overwhelmed" with her job and "hurt/rejected" from her break-up with Bankman-Fried.

It’s a far cry from his house arrest, which he spent in the relative luxury of his parents Palo Alto home in California. Bankman-Fried, 31, has pleaded not guilty to multiple conspiracy and fraud charges relating to the collapse of his exchange, FTX, in November. The company filed for bankruptcy and quickly became the center of the federal fraud investigation.

A new breed of direct-to-consumer services is aggressively using targeted ads to sell habit-forming medications. In short, AI and surveillance capitalism, which empower today's targeted ads, have joined forces with the deadly OxyContin playbook. As the Journal reported, after ADHD medications grew to 20% of the VC-funded company's business, driving a $4.8 billion valuation, things came crashing to earth. We as a society may have come to accept being stalked by targeted ads, but consequences are much graver when the product itself is a danger. But above all, we need rules that ban targeted ads for drugs that can get patients hooked.

Photo Illustration: Andrea D’Aguino; istockphotoStimulants like Adderall are incredibly popular in the U.S., with prescriptions increasing by 250% between 2006 and 2016. A further sharp uptick during the pandemic resulted in a nationwide shortage that began last October and still has many Americans worried. Medications like Adderall are in high demand because they significantly improve deficits in executive functioning, providing help with time management, motivation and sustained focus. As a clinical psychologist, I have many clients who struggle with productivity even while taking medication or who need to discontinue stimulants due to pregnancy, side effects or supply-chain issues. Behavioral therapies require an investment of time and effort, but they can often work just as well as a prescription.
