The XR can be abused.

Just got to know how.
Bottom line is if someone wants to get high off an "extended release" form of a drug, and they're dead set on it, they'll figure out a way.
Of course, this almost certainly doesn't apply to Sammy.

statement from Dabo (AD, school too I guess).
If he did have those on him though with no prescription, then that's going to be really bad. Schedule II drugs.

I know it's not a felony, but Dabo isn't Spurrier. Sammy....

won't just get 1000 chances under Dabo like he probably would with the OBS.
Those pills are CII drugs. I know it's not a felony because he wasn't intending to distribute or anything. It's still some serious stuff to have on you if you don't have a prescription for it though.
I only want this to end as best as possible for Sammy and the program/school though. I really hope he stays with us and finishes a Tiger.

If you do not have ADHD it will keep you up all night and allow you study or just let you enjoy yourself for a while. Its really not that big of a deal.

Actually Vyvanse and Adderall are amphetamines that belong

in the same family as cocaine. I know cocaine is more serious and more dangerous, but these pills if abused are serious stuff.
Believe me I'm not slamming Sammy. I'm as big of a Sammy fan as anyone I know.
Heck if I were the cop I would have looked the other way and just told Sammy to please not do this again. But I'm a diehard fan, not a cop that has to do his job.
I hate this for everyone and I just hope we can keep Sammy with us.

Ive done a lot of research on adderall for school and because I have taken it for my ADD for 9 years now, hence why I am posting on tnet (for my first time ever I might add) while supposed to be working.
Fact is, it is a drug that many researchers and doctors know little about the long term effects. It is an amphetamine that increases the dopamine in your brain which is why it is effective in controlling thoughts and actions for those who have a hard time focusing or following through with a simple task.
Is it the same as cocaine or meth? No, simply because it is controlled in how it is made and used. It is one of the most commonly abused drugs on the market though, (Afrin is the most common abused over the counter drug, weird right?) but does not carry high penalties right now.
Just wanted to get this out there for all those who think, oh it is just adderall, no big deal. Legally, no it is not. But it is a problem when abused and not taken properly.

I concur, I might add that cocaine is also not that bad as

long as it's taken properly and at the correct dosage. The problem arises when it is abused, and the abuse is inevitable.
