This isn't "underground". I'm in high school and many, many people I know pop ADHD medication and other stimulants so they can get better grades and focus more; AKA, to be more boring (kidding..sort of).

Find any bored suburban neighborhood and many of the people there are popping lots of pills, openly and unashamedly (is that a word?), for lots of different purposes.



Thanks for the view into high schools, things sure have changed over the past decade.

The word you were looking for was unabashedly.
