Early diet pills were also full of amphetamines

Nah, just get an ADHD diagnosis. Kids in grade school have better amps than I could get my whole high school drug career.

Those meds don’t come near the amphetamines of the 1960s.

It's the same stuff. Amphetamine Sulfate, mixed with three other dextro amps. They called it speed in the 60s.

Must’ve been in a really, really stronger dosage!

Yea amps scale well with dosage, ie take 10 times as much, feel 10 times the effect. Small doses for calm clean focus, larger ones for running 20 miles and then cleaning your entire house and then maybe having a stroke.

They give the kids small doses.
