Adderall is classified as an amphetamine that is highly addictive. It is a drug that can be prescribed to those who have ADHD; however, it is highly abused by university and college students. It is called the “study drug” for those who abuse it because it increases concentration and creates intense invigoration and euphoria. This video looks at Adderall and how it works both in the body and in the brain.
It is also important to emphasize the mental health aspect of this video. Studies have shown that students try Adderall due to stress. We want to help students to understand the dangers of Adderall. We can help them manage their stress so that they would not depend on Adderall or to help fight their addiction by outlining some resources available to them.

Anxiety is a whole-person response.
Dr. Elizabeth McMahon explains what happens to your body when anxiety strikes. We will discuss the five ways that anxiety can affect you emotionally and physically.
If your body or emotions are telling you that you are in danger, then it will want you to seek out the danger. Then you can stop worrying about other things and focus on danger.
