Although Lindsay Lohan has been prescribed Adderall for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, doctors at UCLA believe that she has been misdiagnosed.
According to Dr. Joe Haraszti, people who don’t need the medication but take it anyway experience the same effects as cocaine or meth.
One may have manic symptoms that can leave to “driving around until all hours of the morning … smoking heavily … tweeting … and texting all night long,” added Haraszti. “They can become very impulsive.”
And it’s not unusual to them to take Ambien or a sleep aid to get to bed at night! And alcohol abuse is even common for those who take Adderall.
“The Adderall counteracts the sedative side effects of alcohol use ├óΓé¼┬ª making these people often drink more than someone who does not take the drug,” said Dr. Marc Kern.
We’re sure all this is true, but Lindsanity knew what she was doing. She wanted to stay skinny and not sleep! And what about those meth reports?!
Just sayin.
