You are exagerating. It IS far from the potency of meth. It is similar to dexedrine, but slightly more mild. It is a good drug if used short term. It does have abuse potential though. I would say it is better than
ritalin but not better than
adderall.
I would rate stimulants I tried as follows:
ice: 10 *illicit
methamphetamine: 8
Sky: 8
didrex:5
adderall:7
dexedrine: 6
ritalin:4
caffeine: 2
ritalin sr: 3
concerta: 3
pemoline:haven't tried it yet nor
tenuate,
focalin, modafinil, etc
