Maybe if Michael Phelps was drugged, would he still be able to win 8 golds?

Question

Maybe if Michael Phelps was drugged on Adderall, CONCERTA, Ritalin, Strattera or Detxroamphetamine for his diagnosed 'ADHD' do you think he would be still able to win 8 golds? "Thanks mom for not drugging me."-Champion

Answer 1

Maybe - just maybe he is. I would be testing him that's for sure. Sorry for being cynical.

Answer 2

Don't hate on Concerta...my company makes that.

Phelps is lucky that plantations didn't have swimming pools. *let it marinate*

Answer 3

idk - he's awesome

Answer 4

Those diagnosed with ADD and ADHD typically excel at area's they find interesting. In fact, its thought that many of the countries greatest thinkers were ADD. It's the area's of life they AREN'T interested in where medication is needed to keep their attention on what needs to be done.

So learn a little about what your talking about next time before spewing nonsense you sponged up from television.

Answer 5

For people who ACTUALLY have ADHD or ADD, those drugs do exactly what they are supposed to do.  I don't know his healthy history, but they'd probably have made very little difference, if any.  

Answer 6

I don't think medicine would have anything to do with his winnings. He's worked very hard over the years, so what will medicine do to his performance? Slow him down, probably not, he said when he heard about people talking trash. It makes him fueled up more to swim a better race,and prove them wrong. I dont think medicine would of affected him.  

Answer 7

No hed probably crack under the self hate from lying to himself and his adoring countrymen. No true althlete as good as himself would cheat to win cus theyd want to win fairly and if ey didnt there would be no point.

I think hes awesome tho nd i love his body! I think i love him almost as much as rafa :O nah... rafas just the one and only. hehe
