I've had someone tell me with a straight face that I'm "basically taking meth".

This is the same kind of person that says "American cheese slices are one molecule away from being plastic!"

They do actually prescribe actual meth for adhd but it’s a different drug known as Desoxyn

Desoxyn is a brand name of methamphetamine hydrochloride. Literally the quintessential ADHD med.

It's completely different than the street drug "meth". The only similarity is the methyl-5 ingredient, which is a molecule that our body naturally synthesizes continuously.

Slightly surprised it hasn't spawned a factoid that claims the body makes meth/is full of it.
