[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 312666, member: 1550"] I didn't know my daughter abused ADHD drugs until she told me, once she was clean. She didn't take any. She got them off the street (they are sold and expensive) and she also got them from people who either faked ADHD and got a prescription and/or stole their baby brother's script etc. She also knew a woman who had a meth lab. Her daughter was my daughter's friend. I never assume I know what my kids did. I'm sure your son didn't take his prescription illegally because you were on the ball. But he could have used someone else's Adderrall that was bought off the street or stolen. We never had Adderrall in the house by the time my daughter's drug use was in full swing. There comes an age when you don't always know what your kids do, no matter how you try to watch them. It really blew my mind to think of them being crushed and snorted. Would have never crossed my mind. And they ARE addictive. My daughter was an addict. She was lucky she was able to quit. And I'm proud of her for it, but I think the warning should be there. If you use the medications correctly, you won't get addicted, but many teens who have disorders don't use drugs correctly. And some who never used ADHD drugs in their lives, like my daughter, found out they are a fast high. Ugh! :frowny: [/QUOTE]
