What should I do know if I was charged with possession of adderall a couple days ago?
I have no prior charges on my record, however, I was also given 3 other summonses for transporting alcohol, possession of marijuana and paraphernalia; these were all civil. I am 20 years old, attend college and work year round. I tried adderall to help with school and focus; I have also previously been prescribed ADHD medications when I was younger.

Unless you have a prescription you are in possesion of illegal drugs under the law, along with a whole host of other drug charges. What I would strongly suggest is that you seek help from an attorney as soon as possible. Have you told your parents? I know it may be hard but it will be worth it once the screaming has passed. If telling your parents is not an option then call another adult that you trust for help. This could give you record that will follow you the rest of your life and you are way too young to have that happen. You stepped you stumbled and you fell. Now you need help getting up. You have your whole life ahead of you. Good luck.
