Not only is this wrong, the prevalence of this weird comparison fuels more stigma and dismissal of people who already have to struggle to get Adderall without judgment from their own doctors and pharmacists, when it’s literally one of the only high percentage treatments for ADHD.
In this article, it’s made clear how there is a legal meth medication for ADHD and the doctors note that that “They are very similar medications. Their chemical structure is almost the same”.
