College kids are bragging online about abusing drugs to study
Studies have been all over the map as to how widespread this drug abuse is, with some research saying it's rare, with about 2% of college kids into the practice, and other research saying it's rampant, with as many as 40% having at least tried this practice. A study that studied the other studies concluded that about 17% of college students abuse ADHD drugs, or 1 in 6 students.
By looking at the photos of these drugs shared by college students via an app called Yeti Campus Stories, it's clear that whatever the percentage, plenty of college kids are popping ADHD pills, which are Schedule II controlled substances, the same category as cocaine. They are openly telling people that they're using them and their friends are "liking" their posts in agreement.
Yeti is an app where students share photos and videos of college life and it offers a revealing, sometimes startling, look at college culture.
Here's some of the photos posted by college kids in just the last few weeks showing their stashes of drugs like Adderall and Ritalin.
