Adderall nation

American television channels are obsessed with shows about drug addicts and interventions. Even advertising in the US focuses on how there's a prescription pill for almost any problem you could think of. Some wonder if the culture is creating an environment that makes it acceptable to be hooked on pills. Studies show that 10 to 15% of American college kids are taking a pill called adderall to help them study. Even some students are starting to wonder if they're capable of being productive without the help of medication.

Alot of people who have ADHD NEED Adderall to function normally, like myself. And Doctors should NOT be hesitant to prescribe Adderall to ANYONE who has been diagnosed with ADHD. That is wrong in many ways. Just because it has a high abuse potential, DOESN'T mean that some people still need it... SO, if you are a doctor reading this, do the right decision and be OPEN MINDED, and realize that alot of people truly need Adderall just to function normally and get day-to-day tasks done.

@PsychoNinjaFreak It's not because you have ADHD. It's because the axons in your brain withdraw when you take amphetamines for a long time.

@PsychoNinjaFreak yeah i have adhd / add...i dont get this "high" feeling that everyone talks about. Idk if it's because i have a high tolerant to it now or not..but i take it just to start feeling normal everyday.

I kind of wish I didn't have ADHD so that Adderall would do this kind of thing for me. I take it daily and I feel completely fine, just more attentive and willing to do math and stuffs

Adderall is JUNIOR METH. Period. End of story. Tweekers in denial.
