Long story short, took adderall for 12 years, went off two years ago, gained a bunch of weight (80lbs) because I had no energy to workout (that and my diet / self control goes to shit when im off stimulants.) Sick of being fat, sick of being lazy, so figured I would try some low-dose Meth...

Very similar to adderall in my experience, only better (when ingested). When snorted there is definitely more of a euphoric rush. I've only smoked Meth once, and that was one teeny-tiny hit off a pipe that really didn't do much but give me a slight weird head buzz which I really didn't care for. I've never shot it.
It also has a tendency to produce pronounced libido-enhancing effects, as It's an evolutionary drug.
High. You must have exceptional will power and follow set-rules or you will almost certainly wind up abusing Meth. The biggest problem with Meth is it's duration: It lasts for forever. It's nearly impossible to manage without going on destructive binges, although it can be done. Once again, set-rules and will-power are critical here.
Fatigue. Extreme, debilitating fatigue. Very few physical withdrawal symptoms, at least for me (here again I use(d) far,
far less than your typical user). Also, the textbook cravings associated with Cocaine/Heroin withdrawal aren't necessarily present during Methamphetamine withdrawal. Yes, during the 48 hours Methamphetamine/Amphetamine are exiting your system there is a tendency to crave more. After said substances have left your system? All you want to do is eat. All you want to do is rest. Once you are rested (3-10 days of sleeping 14-hours or more later) that is when the "cravings" begin to start up (for me at least)
Over the course of 3 years I used anywhere from 25-200MG(MAX) per day (orally). This is not the norm, however: Frequent users will routinely administer 200MG+ in a single dose, and their ROA will 85% of the time be Smoking or Injecting.
Stronger (and longer-lasting) than virtually every other stimulant known to Mankind to this date.
