We only reviewed tweets that were posted between January 1, 2016 and June 30, 2016. We used the following keywords to include as many slang terms for Adderall as possible: "Adderall OR adderall OR Addy OR addy". Tweets were only collected if they were originally written by the person posting the tweet.
