Do you not think prescription drugs can take a toll on you?

Ever feel overly depressed, anxious or even violent. These feelings can often be triggered by an overuse of prescription drugs. Many students use amphetamines and metamphetamines on a regular basis. Aterol is a common drug used by college students. It is often used to complete late night homework or study for that mid-term you have tomorrow. This drug is intended to be used by people with a.d.d or attention deficit disorder. Aterol is designed to alter your brain chemistry and if not prescribed by your doctor it can have serious consequences on your health. Some students take the abuse of this drug to a whole nother level. You can increase your dosage to such an extreme that you can loose sleep for as much as 3-14 days. Side effects can lead to hypothermia and formication(where you feel like insects are crawling underneath your skin). Forces of procrastination are what typically lead students to use these drugs. We as students need to learn how to better budget are time and not lead us into these type of temptations. Study groups and doing homework with a friend are strategies that I have found to be helpful in getting a jumpstart on my homework.
