Adderall and ritalin have legitimate uses for some individuals. These individuals typically are reluctant to talk about their use of these drugs, as they are inappropriately seen as an 'advantage.' Often individuals prescribed these drugs are reluctant to even use the drugs, unless it is absolutely necessary, as they do not want to be dependent on them. There are awful labels and stigmas attached to these drugs that cause issues for legitimate individuals, while casual users like to talk about it ad nauseum. Attention deficit disorder and other learning disorders have chemical bases, as do the drugs that help to correct these issues. It is very medieval to think that these and other disorders involving the brain are made up. We all don't walk around taking blood pressure medication, do we? Seems ludicrious. So does taking adderall & ritalin when you do not need it. Stick to the old fashioned stimulant-- caffeine.
