Well i appreciate the harsh judgements, but picture your son in this exact position, would you really be suggesting they get the harshest punishment? For making poor choices? No mercy.
Your choices were not just "poor" choices, user9. They were
illegal choices. And the court will know that you made these illegal choices more than once.
Please re-read the post by xylene, though. There is
some chance that you can escape the worst of the penalties possible for possession of Vyvanse, but you will want a good attorney to help make this happen. You might also want to consider taking drug rehabilitation classes now (again, see xylene's post), this to show the court that you are serious about staying off drugs so you can get into college.
As a note, a research study was done at the University of Michigan not long ago that showed Vyvanse and similar ADD/ADHD drugs were among the most abused of the drugs used by students in high school and college. Some students were prescribed their drugs by private physicians, who appear to be diagnosing ADD/ADHD in their young patients with alarming frequency, and others were sold the drugs by the students with prescriptions.
Possession for the students with legal prescriptions is not illegal but the sale or distribution of their prescription drugs to others is serious stuff and
has resulted in criminal actions being taken against them. In other words, this friend of yours who provided you with Vyvanse can be in worse trouble than you.
What you might find interesting about the U of M research study (but what is probably not all that surprising to most of us) is that no evidence was found that Vyvanse enhanced academic performance. Students without ADD/ADHD who used Vyvanse showed no noticeable improvement in their grades. In other words, these students took risks with their health for no reason.
