Adderall is a 3:1 dextroamphetamine/levoamphetamine mix.

Methamphetamine is a whole other level of stimulant.

> amphetamine habits in kids that have trouble focusing in school.

1) Do you have evidence that Adderall at therapeutic dosages is anywhere near as addictive as methamphetamine at recreational dosages?

2) Yeah, ADHD makes it real hard to focus at school. I never graduated from high school, and I dropped out of university as an adult student without even completing one year, thanks to untreated ADHD. Not to mention the impulsive behaviour, the inability to stick at boring things etc. etc. It's not great in our society.

You're implicitly minimising the very real impact of ADHD, that's not super great.

In fact, one of the biggest issues for people finally being treated for ADHD as adults is the grieving process around "What my life could've been if my parents hadn't believed that ADHD wasn't real and my issues in school and my 'disruptiveness' was solely due to 'food intolerances', because my Mom read a magazine article about it once, then paid a quack to stick a probe in my ear, one on my finger, and then rub food on my skin while looking at a galvanometer making 'hmmm' noises sagely."

3) You know there's been Adderall shortages in the USA recently due to DEA manufacturing limitations right? So it's not like they're just throwing out to kids like it's a lolly scramble.

Anyway, it's about as ironic as 10,000 spoons when all you need a knife. That is, not at all.
