Adederall

My friend is 14 years old and weight 104 pounds. She doesn't have ADHD. She gets the drugs from this kid in our grade. I tryed to tell her to stop, i told her about all the things it could do to her, but she said she tried to stop but she couldn't because she was already addicted to it. She said it has been 3 days since she has treid to stop and that all three days she has taken 2 each day. She said she was going to take 5 at on time. Im scared that since she is so skinny it will effect her worse. I have no clue what to tell her, or what will happen if she takes 5 at a time. Can some one please tell me what would happen so maybe i can scare her into not doing it, and then get her to stop completley? If you have any other suggestions on how i get her to stop please share that too.
Thank you lots,
<33

I agree with the above 2 posters..YOU HAVE TO TELL SOMEONE....Don't wait until it's too late.I've taken adderall before when I was abusing pills.I can't EVEN imagine taking 5 at one time.I would think that would be enough to stop ANYONES heart.You're friend is playing with a loaded gun taking these pills.You telling someone and getting her the help she needs could mean the difference between life and death for you friend.PLEASE hon,tell someone.

Adderall is speed.  I'm sure she is addicted to it by now.  Its not likely she can quit on her own being so young.  Too much of this can speed her heart up and in some people can actually cause a heart attack....at ANY age!  I think you should talk with the principal about the boy who is selling it so he doesn't get anyone else addicted, and tell her you care about her and are going to tell your mom or her mom so she can get the help she needs.  She really should be monitored by a doctor while coming off this stuff.
