when I just felt switched on, in a good mood and full of energy

Wait. I thought that's just what meth does. Is that not what it's supposed to feel like?

It is, but I found out later that other people don't feel as clear-headed as I did. We all felt very energetic, but apparently the others found it difficult to concentrate because their minds were racing. In my case, my mind was racing too, but with a pleasant clarity, where I could keep a train of thought going. Normally, my mind would trail off and go on tangents until I couldn't remember what I was thinking about originally. For a long time I didn't know that my experience of amphetamines wasn't quite the same as for others, especially since it was very similar in many ways.

Dexamphetamine (which is the main ingredient of ADD medication) does the same thing that methamphetamine does. It has exactly the same effects in every way, the only difference is that meth is more potent.
