No. But there are definitely some.

Honestly, Adderall even at maximum dose is a tiny fraction of the typical dose you get from meth.

You see the professional side. I'm on the side where the drug users are. Poor neighborhood always lookin for an escape. And sometimes that escape can be prescribed. Not in the good way lije mood stabilizers

Oh I believe it. I just don't think half of the people getting it are just trying to get high.

In any case, I have ADHD and I prefer Vyvanse. None of the high, but also no crash either.

I tried to hint at it, but I always beat around the bush and thankfully I never got it. It's shitty cause I have the symptoms it's prescribed for, it's just too addicting.

probably not half, but some, sure.

i've known plenty of people that just took it to cram for exams, work deadlines.
