I want a scientific paper on the difference between adderall (amphetamines) and speed(Methamphetamine)?

Question by MG: I want a scientific paper on the difference between adderall (amphetamines) and speed(Methamphetamine)?
Ok long story short, I am going to be diagnosed with ADHD-I (inattentive) soon and from what I have heard adderall is the most widely prescribed, so I would like to find out how meth and adderall differ in a scientific way. I am a fairly smart person so I can understand the paper, but I can’t find one with google and I am fairly good with google searches, so please just include a link. Thanks!

Note that Dexedrine and Desoxyn are the meth and methylphenidate (ritalin) and adderall are the amphetamines.
