im only 15, and i took concerta. i tried adderal and that shit works. But everything you say is all wrong. i been thinking. and what happens when you cant get the drug. i been trying to figure it out. And i want to be smart without it. damn, im not even prescribed, i think about throwing it away, and learning how to concentrate and focus on my own. think about it, all you have to do is learn and listen. without being prescribed, your actually making yourself feel dumb.

All of you people are completely ignorant and you disgust me thoroughly! Talking about drugs are wrong and dealing is bad. There’s some guy sittin @ home right now waiting on a call from your parents so he can sell em some valiums or percs to take the edge off of being around their dope- nazi, brainwashed, ‘law- abiding’ children who are off at the university getting head from some nasty bitch with shit on her lip and drinkin alcohol to get the only got buzz they’ve been fooled into believing is less detrimental than ‘dope- dope’. Ok im finished…

Casey, your steroid analogy, while interesting, isn't really accurate. Athletes compete in a zero-sum game. Academics do not. If you use adderall as a "performance enhancing drug" and you earn an "A", you're not taking an "A" away from the guy next to you.

Isn't that how any disorder is? do you not believe in disorders? they are just simple outliers to you i guess… "theyre not blind, they just cant see as well.". "they dont have ADHD, they just have a frontal lobe that isnt as developed as the rest of society." hmm very intriguing indeed. well i take adderall to calm down and focus. it does motivate me and makes me feel great. sure other people could take it. they would most likely have insomnia. and on a regular basis become more hyperactive and impulsive. i dont think that would be an advantage. really in the long run adderall or any other stimulant makes ADHD more manageable while for non ADHD it can turn them somewhat more ADHD. if it really worked to the point where everyone would take them, benefit and not abuse, than it would already be like that.

Everybody needs to understand the simple idea that if everybody is equal, nobody is equal. Socialising intelligence is not ethical, so quit acting like it is. The day you "level the playing feild" will be the day that the field will become one I should no longer wish to play on.

Now, consider the context. You are debating that it is wrong for people to excel academically by any means necessary. I, however, feel differently. I think that it would be more wrong for you to limit the amount of success that one is able to strive to acheive. To say to one man "yes, you really can't focus very good at all, so here is a prescription, catch up with the rest of them," and to another man, "no, you focus just fine, so slow down and let the people lagging behind catch up to you.. let's level the playing field" –This, I believe is far more unethical — *especially* in light of the fact that there is no objective criterion for ADHD diagnosis other than a comparison of the patient in question to that of the rest of society.
