[quote=Anonymous]Like a PP, I discuss it like a medical issue. Methylphenidate is a stimulant and alcohol is a depressant. Mixing the two can be problematic, particularly since the methylphenidate lead one to overconsume alcohol in dangerous amounts. But, I stress what's more important is that their ADHD brains are much more susceptible to addiction than non-ADHD brains whether it's alcohol, drugs or something else. I can't make their choices for them but can only provide them information so they can make better choices. I also encourage them to do their own research on ADHD and substance abuse. [/quote]
