A lot of people have been sending me PMs asking me the difference between amphetamines and cocaine. It is very hard to explain the difference.
I would say that amphetamines gets you more wired and with a more powerful feeling of physical drive and needs to get things done than cocaine. You can stay up for a week or more on Adderall or Dexedrine, but you would probably collapse from exhaustion after 3 day doing coke. They are stronger stimulants than cocaine.
However, cocaine gives you a better high than amphetamine. The feeling of elation and contentment that coke gives you is wonderful and better than amphetamine. Meth is comparable to cocaine.
You cannot get as high on amphetamine as on coke. If you take a really huge dose of amphetamine(say 100-200 mg), you do get high, but the high is not as intense as even as little as 20 mg of meth or snorting coke.
Now meth is a different story. Meth is a more powerful euphoriant than amphetamine and comparable to coke. Which is better is debatable, but meth is "edgier" and you cannot enjoy any given thing when on it like when on cocaine. The latter is less edgy and allows you to enjoy music, partying or sex more than meth. When on meth you focus on a million different things and cannot nejoy any given thing as much.
The reason why amphetamine does not get you as high as meth or cocaine is because of the way it acts. Amphetamine triggers the release and blocks the reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine, but it is not as effective as meth at doing the former thing or as cocaine as doing the latter thing.
Cocaine triggers very little dopamine release, but it blocks the reuptake almost completely giving you an intense high.... Meth is not as effective as cocaine at blocking the reputake just like amphetamine, but it triggers the release of enormous amounts of dopamine also giving you an intense high. Amphetamine does not release a lot of dopamine, unlike meth, and it does not block the reuptake of dopamine very effectively, unlike cocaine. The end result is that it raises synaptic levels of dopamine only mildly compared to cocaine and meth, thus raising your mood but not giving you an intense high.
The bottom line is this:
Best drug for studying and focusing = amphetamine
Best drug for partying or fucking = cocaine
Best drug for getting fucked up, which comes in handy if you are at a war or something = meth
