The new documentary “Take Your Pills” dives into the Adderall crisis in this country. From college students to business professionals, this drug is being abused to keep up with our hyper-competitive society. The Doctors discuss this issue with the film’s executive producers, Maria Shriver and her daughter, Christina Schwarzenegger.
Plastic surgeon Dr. Andrew Ordon asks Christina what she believes has led to this dramatic increase in the abuse of Adderall-type drugs.
Christina feels there are a few things. She says that people are getting diagnosed that probably wouldn’t have been in the past. She says we also live in a society where we are expected to be plugged in 24/7. If you don’t take the drug, you feel like others are taking it and then you are falling behind.
