Heroin for one. A big percentage OD's on that substance.

Ecstasy well not so much. I haven't heard much about Ecstasy lately so that's pretty much on the DL.

OxyContin is definite. People used to use OxyContin as a substance that could help with emotions and is commonly abused from time to time.

Adderall could be a definite because it helps people with ADHD and people with narcolepsy or uncontrollable desire to sleep. So it could easily b abused for one or more purposes.

I'm almost sure that Ritalin is one of them.

a synthetic drug that stimulates the sympathetic and central nervous systems and is used to improve mental activity in attention deficit disorder and other conditions.
