As I work on a college campus, I know I'm surrounded with students abusing ADHD meds because they think it'll make them study better. But given that the meds I've found lost around the library actually require taking for several days to build up in the system and start working, it would be hilarious that the effects they're getting are almost 100% placebo if it weren't for the potential severe side effects.
(I'm not currently medicated, but I've got an office to myself where I don't get interrupted, and permission from my boss to turn the phone and email off when I need to not be distracted, and I installed LeechBlock on my browser to lessen temptation to go various places online when I should be working. Aaaand despite there, here I am reading DW and I stopped in the middle of reading the post to go play Flight Rising a bit, and I'm rambling in this comment...)
