Methylphenidate isn't meth at all - it's ritalin/concerta. "Meth" is amphetamine (Adderall) with a substituted methyl group (methamphetamine). This increases its ability to dissolve in lipids, so more enters the brain and at a greater rate.
By mass, methylphenidate is about half the strength of amphetamine. Amphetamine is about 1/5 the strength of methamphetamine, so methylphenidate is about 1/10 the strength of methamphetamine. Amphetamines and methylphenidate also work by different mechanisms, so they have different effects, making the relative strength an imperfect comparison.
Methamphetamine actually is prescribed on rare occasion under the brand name Desoxyn, usually as a last ditch effort for extreme, treatment-resistant ADHD.
Didnt ask but now i know more! Thank you kind stranger! I can finally explain the difference! I used to always say "well yes but actually no" to question "isnt it just meth?"
meth-like
Meth-love
Didn't ask
Funny thing: I didn't ask if you cared and I don't care if you do. I wanted to put the correct information for those who actually care about if things are true or not.
We're not on Facebook, some of us have standards.
Well see, I was doing this thing called a joke that humans do. Sometimes other people laugh, but everyone generally understands that the person making the joke isn't trying to share specific accurate medical information. You felt the need to correct a joke, which makes you the absolute worst kind of loser.
Maybe you should go to Facebook, that's the place for people who think other people need to hear what they have to say.
The ego and your lack of awareness of it is sad bud.
The only thing I've actually found offensive here is that you think anyone would be so stupid as to find that believable.
If you can't see that's a joke you're a lost fucking cause bud, like autistic levels of unable to catch a joke. You've got the sense of humor the pharmaceutical knowledge you dropped earlier suggests.
Here's the thing: it wasn't funny. Especially as it's based on false information. It was cringy at best.
You're right, I'll get a degree in pharmacology so that I never make a technical mistake when making a joke ever again. I'll make sure to also get degrees in every other technical field before speaking in jest in any capacity about any subject.
And you wanna talk about cringey?
What’s your endgame here? What are you trying to do? Are you an energy vampire, or do you just enjoy being a pointlessly argumentative pithy nonce?
Sure buddy. You pretend whatever you need to pretend. We believe you.
The chances of someone being autistic in a neurodivergent community on an obscure Fediverse platform is pretty miniscule.
That is a joke.
Maybe you should relax a bit. The information provided by SoleInvictus was interesting and set things straight. If you post something on social media, be prepared for getting responses. That's how this platform works.
People can both understand (maybe even enjoy) a joke, and follow it with a relevant info-dump.
We don't shit on info-dumps here. We appreciate them.
Lol someone got upset they were corrected.
I wasn't corrected because I made no assertion. I made a joke, but the terminally online are incapable of thought beyond "INACCURATE INFORMATION MUST CORRECT" and it's fucking sad. It wasn't a funny joke, I'll concede that, but I'm not the one worse for wear of this interaction.
From over here, it looks like you had a wee little tantrum and are scrambling to explain with an absolute shite story. Your 'joke' may not have been funny, but your response after certainly is.
If you can't figure out that's a joke you're genuinely a lost cause my guy.
Lol sure mate. It's not your joke being a damp squib, it's everyone else. Good luck with that.
I feel like you’re way too invested in whatever hill you’re trying to die on here, and nobody else understands what you’re doing either.
Such a wild response lol
You commented on a forum. People reply. That's... what happens here. The replies are for everyone on the thread, not just you. That's why it was a comment reply and not a DM.
And like, look at where you are, this is an ADHD community. And someone provided relevant information in response to your comment. Of course someone is going to latch on to some small piece and infodump in response, it's the ADHD community
Didn't ask lol
oh huh ive never heard of Desoxyn being prescribed for ADHD, I was under the impression it was only prescribed for extreme cases of narcolepsy
