while i can appreciate that you’re at least respecting that medication choices are between a doctor and a patient, i would love for this myth that ADHD meds are meth to die.

it’s incredibly frustrating to see this sort of misinformation perpetuated. it is not difficult to search “differences between adderal and meth”, here’s one such link if you’d like: https://www.healthline.com/health/adhd/how-do-adderall-and-meth-methamphetamine-differ#differences

there is only technically ONE ADHD medication which is meth, which is… methamphetamine, and as i understand it, it is prescribed very rarely and is quite different from illegal meth

adderal, ritalin, and other less frequently used stimulants are not called meth because they are not meth

this misinformation is harmful because it perpetuates the idea that illegal drugs are the same shit that people are taking for treatment, often for necessary functioning or quality of life, and also perpetuates the judgement of those people for taking those important medications. these associations or judgements can make. people reluctant to get diagnosed or treated, which can prevent them from living their lives to the fullest
