Has anyone else here taken the National Survey on Drug Use and Health?
A lady come by my apartment to conduct the survey with me because I received a letter about a week ago saying I been selected for it. The whole thing took about an hour, with questions about drug use, depression and the like.

It covered booze, drugs and tobacco usage. The pamphlet said it was to mere the magnitude and patterns of use and abuse. I was apparently representing 4500 of my fellow citizens with my answers. It was conducted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human services.

I was a Census worker so I understand the importance of these types of surveys. Plus I made 30 bucks, so win-win.

But I haven't heard anyone talking about it or read any news articles about it so I was wondering if any DU folks had heard about it or taken it.

Thanks!

1. Yes the NSDUH
I spent many years working on the study as an interviewer. It has been conducted for over 20 years and provides most of the data on illicit (and legal) drug use for organizations of all kinds. I always enjoyed the work and it is legit.
