[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ADHD drugs can lead to addictions. The kid is given amphetamines and is self medicating with pot. It's toxic, it's not his fault. [/quote] Stop spreading misinformation. Teens with uncontrolled adhd (often those not on medication) are more likely to take drugs. OP, some of this may be related to his adhd, and each negative step results in the next. I would start with the doctor who is managing his adhd. [/quote] Parents should read the labels on the amphetamines for side affects and understand what they do to a growing brain. Most kids have no business popping study drugs it's the parents who are demanding amphetamines for kids for the purpose of a better GPA. Doctors know that if they don't prescribe the drugs, the parents will just go to another doctor who will. [/quote] Several of us on DCUM are doctors or scientists working in related fields and we can certify that 50 years of research into stimulants have shown no negative side effects on developing brains if dosed correctly on diagnosed patients. [/quote] Addictions are more likely in people who DO need these medications and don't get them. [/quote]
