All abuse is bad. Some abuses are worse than others.

What abuse are they seeing with adderall? What I hear in casual conversations is that people are abusing it to learn things. Is that what the DEA was seeing too?

Yes, it is most commonly used a study drug.

It is a strong stimulant (more like cocaine than like coffee) and potentially addictive so potentially dangerous and requires medical supervision.

it is a formulation of amphetamine.

You aren’t really going to get addicted to therapeutic doses. Recreational doses are like 5-10x what a doctor would prescribe, with restrictive laws in the U.S. you can only get a months supply at a time.

Would be pretty dumb to use your months dosage for 3 days of partying

It can't be as appealing and addictive as cocaine but most commonly be abused as a study drug and have recreational use be much less common.

It would never happen. So it must be much less appealing than cocaine.

I didn't realize studying was a crime.
