actually genarr, i have to disagree with you (which is probably the first time i ever have, so don't bust my chops about it). in my experience, doctors give this stuff out pretty easily. in fact, i have been offered prescriptions for dexedrin (sp?) and adderall by just filling out simple questionnaires. and its REAL easy to fill those out to get the script. i had a friend who visited with a doc concerning ADD issues, and upon leaving his first visit, he left with a prescription for 60 mg/day, which is a TON! it is ridiculous. that amount of adderall would change someone's whole personality. its almost scary.
