HOMEWORK. COLLEGE ESSAYS. SOCIAL MEDIA. SPORTS. VOLUNTEERING. PART-TIME JOBS. FRIENDS. Teens' lives are jam-packed from the time they wake up until the time they can finally sleep and just keeping up is a daily struggle for some.

BREAKING POINTS, directed by Tucker Capps, is a 30-minute documentary intended for adults that explores the stress and pressures our teens face every day, as well as the unhealthy ways that many of them cope, including abusing prescription stimulants.

BREAKING POINTS includes candid perspectives from high-school and college students, as well as nationally recognized experts, challenging the misperceived safety and effectiveness of using prescription stimulants without a doctors prescription. It serves as a catalyst to inform discussions about what parents and communities can do to support teens struggling to manage stress.
