Why Are There So Many Pre-Adult Questions About Prescription Drug and Drug Abuse?

Question by GK: Why are there so many pre-adult questions about prescription drug and drug abuse?
I see at least half a dozen questions a day from various categories from the pre-adult (teen, young adult) where they have taken or just got their hands on something like Adderall/Ritalin and think it is OK, to put this in their system without a doctors Rx. Some times, the have overdosed and are asking about the symptoms. Another half dozen are asking to see if they are going to pass a drug test tomorrow with agent X in their body. It just astounds me that this group thinks it is perfectly fine to ingest medicine not prescribed to them. Am I being to anal about what not to take?
LTD: Don’t get me started about that category too! I know what you mean girlfriend!
midnightmoon62: Thank you for such a helpful and shocking response. I would never have guessed that a kid would even think about taking such lethal (to them) medication.

Is Past Treatment for Drug and Alcohol Abuse Private?

Question by Rainy D: Is past treatment for drug and alcohol abuse private?
I’ve been accepted to LPN school and on the physical sheet they ask if I’ve ever been treated for drug or alcohol abuse. I really don’t want to reveal this, some people are very judgmental when it comes to that. But it says on the bottom that knowingly giving false information can result in dismissal to the program, I went to rehab 7 years ago. Shouldn’t this be my business? Do I have to reveal this?
If I answer yes can they take back my acceptance to the program?
