By "meth" I think you are referring to ice instead of desoxyn. On a milligram to milligram basis, dextroamphetamine and ice methamphetamine are comparable. But meth's N-methyl group makes it get into your brain better (kind of like heroin versus morphine), producing a very focused high. Otherwise, dex and meth are both pretty much your standard, strongly-stimulating amphetamine highs, but meth is more in your face and pushy I would say. And it lasts longer and is slower to develop tolerance issues. It's corrosive AF though and overall bad for your body.
DixiChik:
All in all.. I think some kind of sedative, without any stimulants, like valium, klonopin or any long acting benzos on days your not feeling happy, would be a much better option, as long as you take them sparingly and don't get addicted to them aka don't take them everyday.. that is a hard thing to kick. Have you tried any other non-narcotic meds like SSRIs? or SNRIs? and then there is always just good old weed, the all around best and safest thing you can do for depression/anxiety and even pain, in some instances.. THC is harmless, as long as you don't smoke blunts everyday, or joints.. they are somewhat harmful.. blunts especially. But bowls, bongs, vapes, etc. anything that doesn't require more than just weed/thc and a lighter pretty much, is rather safe... and much better all around for the issues you say your having, than I would imagine Dexedrine to be.. now I could be entirely wrong as I haven't tried just dextro-amphetamine before aka Dexedrine.. just Adderall when it comes to pharm stimulant meds, which I take daily and know is not TOO far off from dex, as it is 75% dex-amp and only 25% levo-amp, the only thing making them(Dexedrine and Adderall) really different at all, being the l-amp salts.. I have heard both that the two drugs are very much alike, and that some like Adderall better than dex, while others like dex better than adds.. I would love to try dex, but don't know one person who has it, friend or street connect wise.. and my doctor pretty much said, no way when I asked her to try it recently after taking Adderall 20mg IRs for a year now, I kind of just want to see if there is anything more helpful and experiment with other stim. ADHD meds, than just Adderall, never knowing how they affect me and my ADHD.. she said if I need something else, I need to see a psychiatrist.. she is my sub doctor, so her giving be Adderall along with subs and klonopin as well, is already pretty generous as a sub doctor.. and she and I have a good relationship, that I will not be risking.. but one day, I would love to see how dex and Adderall compare, through my point of view, not just what I have heard so much about it.. and Ritalin, and focalin, desoxyn.. etc.. I want to try all of them just to know if Adderall is really the best thing for the type of ADHD I have..
I wouldn't just hop on Dexedrine before trying other drugs, better geared toward your issues.. any stimulant no matter what, does come with a comedown.. which will make you the most depressed person you have ever been, to put it blunt.. well most of the stims I have tried do anyways, coke being the worst, especially when smoked/IVed.. I have never tried meth of any kind, so I don't know anything about that.. just know that Adderall, does have a shitty comedown, and I would imagine Dexedrine to have one as well, its not TOO bad.. but for someone who is already depressed, which I am not at all, and still get depressed, with nothing to take for the comedown, I don't think it would be the best option, just assuming Dexedrine is similar to Adderall when it comes to the comedown, when it wears off.. If you do try it, have some kind of sedative on hand for the comedown, please! you will need it, most likely.. Adderall, compared to coke and mdma, is nothing, especially since I also take klonopin all day with it.. so it isn't too bad at all with the kpin, but without sedatives like my klonopins.. if I even take a 5mg piece of my Adderall, I am super uneasy, edgy, and hate it.. it turns me into a depressed and angry person, when normally I am not.. with my kpins..
I don't know, everyone is very different with stimulant meds like that.. and like I said, most of those meds are solely geared toward people with ADD/ADHD and narcolepsy.. except for the rare, other things they are sometimes prescribed for.. as they effect everyone so differently.. anyways, hope you find something that helps with your depression/pain issues.. good luck with finding the right med..
Ya I guess you gotta define strength. For example, fentanyl is much stronger than Heroin, dose-equivalent, but in terms of effects it is way weaker, because all opioid enthusiasts prefer Heroin. I never tried meth but judging from the papers I read, taking meth is the same as taking Dexedrine with some cocaine. For what I'm doing, I cannot tolerate the extra serotonin from meth.
You're basic difference is that methamphetamine is going to be more dopaminergic, more serotonergic, and less noradrenergic. This should equate to a cleaner "high" and probably more euphoria at lower doses. There are also some differences between the specific regions of the brain in which they're most active.
For some people, methamphetamine may work better for treating an attention deficit while amphetamine may work better for others. However, it's easy to see why methamphetamine would be the drug of choice for recreational users, and im sure it's serotonergic activities will play a role in making it a little more addictive.
IMO, methamphetamine is probably underprescribed due to addiction liability/stigma.
To get the full blown serotonergic effects from meth, you have to mainline like 250 mg at once, though a lot of dope fiends shoot up 2x that amount to get their fix.
And even super clean ice will burn sores in your mouth if you do like an "8-ball" (supposedly 3.5 grams but usually less than that on the street) in, say, 3 days, so it's still corrosive as fuck, to quote myself.
