OMG Girls stay away from the adderal !!!   It is basically pharmaceutical meth and even though it helps you focus for college exams, it's highly addictive. Pharmeceutical companies have started pushing highly addictive drugs to people because they want to make money, period.

Oxycontin should be only prescribed to people in hospices that are near death. My friend was prescribed Oxycontin (which is pharmaceutical heroin) for a broken ankle from a car accident. One year later she's a full blown addict.

Now back to adderal.

The most sinister thing is that it is being given to children. Parents are being told that their child needs pharmaceutical meth to pay attention. Meanwhile we are bombarded with images and information constantly, so most people in the modern world have problems paying attention.

The fact is that the learning process has not adjusted to the modern world. Most children are thinking too fast to sit still in a class and absorb slowly taught information 1980's style. They should be  taught differently not being fed adderal. The worst part is that women have a predisposition to becoming addicted to adderal. Adderal addiction not only screws your looks but tying to get off of it is psychologically difficult because you lose joy, energy and interest in everything when you're off of it. Also you can't focus on anything at all. Stay away from this. Also check out the link to the forum below from people struggling with it.
