Opiate, no. Adderall, somewhat. This past spring semester. I was struggling in calculus big time and needed to get a C in the class in order for my credit to transfer to KU, where it was then a pre-req for a couple classes I was already enrolled in for next fall.
So in April, after I figured out what I needed to do to get a C in the course from my professor, I bought some addy off my friend to pull one all-nighter and catch up on caluclus. Adderall probably isn't the worst thing in the world, but I was addicted to something that I didn't need to be taking. The shit I could pull-off academically while wired on it was amazing. But one all-nighter turned into 9 or 10 in the month of April + finals week in May.
My three calculus test scores from last semester?
72
47
95 - top of the class
Can anyone guess which test I spent 48 hours wired on adderall preparing for? I didn't sleep, when one addy started to wear off.. I just took another one.
I got a C in the class.
At the end of the year, I was definitely becoming dependent on that stuff. Haven't taken any since, however, mainly because summer came and I have no use for it. It's all over college campuses. Very easy to get.
