    And then there’s people who got hooked on methamphetamines because they were a cheap but effective way to stay up all night and study for an exam when they were a teenager

    *amphetamines.

    I don’t think Desoxyn, the prescription version of methamphetamine, is particularly popular.

    But Adderall is just straight up amphetamine.

    (Not to be the umm ackchyually guy.)

    For what it’s worth, Adderall is unlikely to lead to addiction when used as prescribed by people who actually need it. So don’t worry if you’re an ADHD patient who takes it.
