A friend of my father who is a neurologist sends his children Methylphenidate (Ritalin) by mail for studying. Now they can't study without it...
Talk about a responsible father/physician
I find it highly unlikely that they can't study without it, I find it very likely that they have forgotten how to study without it and without it, it is very hard to do the work to figure out how. That's what I've found stimulant abuse does: makes you believe the stimulants are responsible for your work, and then when you quit them, robs you of the motivation to do (anything) the work to remember how to do work yourself, on your own. It's like a double kicker. Makes you feel like you can do anything, but that you can't do anything without it.
