The thing I'm concerned with is he is only 5 years old. What the heeelll are they going to give him when he's older?
But if he's taking adderall at 5 what are they going to give him in say, 13 years when he turns 18? He'll still have so much life ahead of him. It worries me whenever I think about it.




You should worry. they start kids on ritalin, switch to stronger adderall as a teen, and then dexedrine as an adult for the rest of your life. Decades of amphetamine use especially in a growing child will cause brain damage due to long-term neurotoxicity and growth retardations.
