“...Xanax, Valium, Soma, Vicodin and Adderall...”

Don’t wish to sound naive, but... what are these things? Anyone?

Vicodin - Very common pain medication.

Valium - Common tranquilizer.

Not so sure about the others.

Brand names for various painkillers, antidepressants, mood changers, psychoactive stuff. Brain chemicals. Mind-altering drugs.

Wikipedia is your friend (they're in there), likewise Google (or whatever).

xanax & valium are for anxiety & panic attacks . Also called a tranquilizer . Valium is also supposed to help severe alcholism withdrawal .

Soma , I think is a powerful sleeping pill ??? Not really sure ....

Vicodin is a pain pill , which is highly addictive , & gives energy for people in severe pain.

Adderall I think is an antidepressant drug , or is used for ADHD disorder ( the Hyper Kid Drug ) & Similar to Ritalin ????
