Patrice is most likely abusing a stimulant. Stimulants are known to increase alertness, attention, and energy by enhancing the activity of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, which can lead to staying awake for long periods and increased productivity, as Patrice describes.
Patrice has been abusing prescription medication. She tells her friend, “I know I shouldn’t take them, but they help me so much! I can stay up all night and get all of my work done. I never seem to get tired.” Her friend is concerned because Patrice seems to have become addicted to these dangerous drugs. What type of drug is Patrice MOST likely abusing?
