I have taken it a few times when I needed to study, I smoked like a pack and a half that night, chain smoke really hard on them. I generaly feel like complete **** when I come off them, plus I didnt want the crutch of it, I got a lot of friends who are addicted on it and that also made me want to stay away from it. For recreation though, just like any upper makes you feel super calm and friendly but the penalties are prety ******* strict if you get caught with it with no r.x for it, also that **** cant be good for your health. 10-20 years from now, we'll see the effects of ritilin and aderal on people.

oh i have an RX. It is a controlled substance so im sure the penalty for having it without an RX or distributing it would be more than a slap on the wrist....but go to any college campus and im sure you could find some within minutes....kids that have an RX for like 60mg a day and don't even take it can make a pretty penny sellin that stuff around finals time.....or so i've heard

Its a controlled substance, your looking at drug possesion charges. A lot of people sell it as well as pain killers, not hard to find it but that also goes for weed and coke, none are hard to find at all but the penalties are prety bad if you get busted. If your records clean and you get a good lawyer, you can get off kinda on most drug charges if they dont get you on intent to distribute, then it will be at best probation for a couple years or some jail time, buddy of mine is on probation till 2010 on an intent charge for ex. Drugs aint worth it

I am guessing just like ritalin it will kill your sex drive among other things. I guess sex should not be on ur top 10 list anyways if you are stuck doing a 19 page final though =/

man i have heard that from a lot of people, but for me it is the exact opposite....the only downside, as mentioned earlier, is the mood swings when it wears off....and if you take it too late, its hard to sleep...

You would have to go to psychiatrist and get evaluated, it is used for people with ADD, I have ADD and I used to take Ritalin, that **** works like a champ for school. My grades shot through the roof.

I know a few people that are absolutely addicted to the stuff. If you have an addictive personality, stay away for sure.

I am ADD so sometimes I have a hard time staying focased. This becomes fustrating for me because its hard to get anything done when you are scatered brain. I went to my doctor and he put me on adderal. I hated it. It would keep me up all night and I went through mood swings like crazy. If I missed a day I would go from happy to majorly depressed in the same day. I tried to take it off and on for a year thinking maybe I did not give it enough time to adjust. I finnaly relized that stuff was not for me and tossed the rest of the bottle in the trash. Now I just drink a red bull and tell everyone to not talk to me when I am in the middle of something.lol
Dealing with ADD is a major inconvience and makes it hard to get your job done sometimes.

I tried those once. I lasted for about 2 days on them. Wired me out big time. I hated them.

I just try the supplements that they offer at the grocery store. They are pretty safe and harmless. Thats helps (if I remember to take them).

strattera is not amphetamine like ritalin, adderall. so it shouldnt produce the same effects. it should still help though.

strattera is a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, therefore it doesnt use dopamine and adrenalin like adderall, ritalin.

I use to take strattera, didnt do too much. I take 20mg of adderall about 3 days a week for work and such. 60mg a day like someone stated would seem too much for me. I took 40mg once and it tripped me out. It does kill your sex drive and when you come down you do get mood swings. And yes, take it too late and sleeping will almost be impossible.
