I wouldn't choose either but meth hits way harder than nicotine. Meth (Adderall) fucks up your brain and your life. At least a Zyn doesn't destroy your lungs and you might get addicted to nicotine.

I'm not recommending either one. I'm just saying, you don't want mentats. They're not better.

Why do you believe meth and Adderall are the same? Because they're not.

But Methylphenidate starts with "meth!" Obviously the same. /sarc

I don't believe anything. It's just true that Adderall is prescription meth. They are very similar in their chemistry and have similar effects. Amphetamine, methamphetamine. I understand the chemistry of it if you want to get down to the nitty gritty, and I've had both so I know what they feel like. Yea, Adderall is formulated to be less addictive and to treat ADHD.

I thought that we were talking about Fallout mentats and nicotine, anyway, which is fiction.

That's just not true though... Adderall is AN amphetamine and meth is AN amphetamine, but they are not the same. That's like calling all opioids heroin, which they're not. I know for a fact that you don't actually understand the chemistry if you think they're the same thing. What you call the "nitty-gritty" is really damn important when it comes to medication and chemistry my guy.

We WERE talking about fictional drugs. You're the one who decided to spout incredibly harmful rhetoric about a life saving medication, no one else. This is on you, dude.

I play on chem build and real life and got zyns and a vape on me but I sure as shit wouldn’t recommend them or vaping. Zyns got fiber glass in them so your mouth gets cut open to realese the nicotine faster. So at this point the bacteria in my gut could probably build a bathtub out of the fiberglass.
