Like It or Not, “Smart Drugs” Are Coming to the Office

I know anecdotes about personal use are annoying, but I found 2mg of adderrall had little noticeable impact on my day to day, with the exception that after work I was less tired. After work I found myself exercising, going to the grocery store, and attending social activists more often.. and that’s about it.

I don’t do it anymore, but if I had better access I definitely would.

I'll agree with that assessment, it's nice to have an occasional boost. But I've also known people that have started with 5mg and quickly worked their way up 20 - 60mg. It too easy to get these prescribed and it's a real pandora's box if you're not careful. Modafinil, while not perfect, seems far safer.
