I get to criticize an open study drug user's thoughts

Quick Summary of ARTICLE
Adderall is a drug that helps people with ADD and ADHD. Adderall is also used for many other uses in academics and even weight loss. Adderall is a new way of cheating for people with no medical disorders. The author admits to using it because everyone else does it in a competitive environment. He says he can't afford to not take Adderall even with the possibility of side effects.

Critique
I perfectly understand where the author is coming from. This would be perfectly fine if Adderall was legal. This article is very simular to the other one I wrote about ( click here). The difference is this article is from the a user's view. I disagree with people using Adderall illegally. If Adderall levels the playing field for people who have ADD then the playingfield becomes unleveled again when it is used illegally. Adderall does allow people to do crazy amounts of work in single sittings, but no one should have 15 hour study sessions anyway. There is a reason Adderall is a schedule II drug. Adderall is an amphetamine. That means that it has a similar composition to Chrystal Meth and cocaine. The drug should only be taken by people who have prescriptions for it.
