They are absolutely nothing alike. Adderall is ridiculously easy to get in college and that is why that kid did that. That shit gets spread around like candy on college campuses.

You can't even smoke adderall. Comparing the two is like comparing 16 fl oz of decaf (like 40mg of caffeine) to 16 fl oz of espresso (1,040 mg). They are not even close to comparable. Nobody outside of college is doing adderall for fun and the ones that are doing that in college are retarded because there are better drugs that are still readily available on campus.

Adderall is almost exactly the same as European speed. Plenty of people do it recreationally and I'd honestly say it's better than most stimulant drugs for casual use

Speed is amphetamine, adderall is amphetamine. Neither is methamphetamine.

And both speed and meth are used recreationally, your point is?

[–] havokdj@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Because, those drugs are actually, you know, fun to use?

They directly effect your serotonin receptors and release a shit ton of it over a short period of time. MDMA, Speed (pure amphetamine or otherwise), Meth, MDA, pseudoephedrine, cocaine, THOSE are recreational drugs. Adderall is no where near on the same level as those drugs.

Hell, you have to take several doses of it to get to the threshold, the other drugs mentioned act on even very small amounts.
