Question:
Answers:
Ritalin is stimulant which increases brain activity, enabling those with ADD/ADHD to control impulsively, regulate behavior, screen out extraneous stimuli, and increase attention span. This may appear to calm the ADD/ADHD person while over?stimulating those who do not have this disorder. Most people who need medication, that is with abnormal brain function, do not abuse it; however, the potential for abuse is always there.
College students cramming for an exam and professionals preparing for a presentation are turning to Ritalin. They obtain Ritalin by telling doctors that they are having problems paying attention. This kind of abuse is dangerous. Ritalin affects a normal brain differently, and it can make you sick.
Other Answers:
All drugs are dangerous. Ritalin is a stimulant and highly addictive. The only reason anyone should be taking ritalin is if they can not live a reasonably normal life without it.
