Please help educate me about uppers

[needsumthin]

Well I need sumthin (something) to help me with my energy level. I don’t want to use anything that I have to shoot up or smoke. I want pills. I want something that will give me energy enough to do things. Also I hope to find something that isn’t so strong that I’ll look like a druggie in a few years and not so strong that it makes me jittery or out of it (I guess each person could be different). Also I hope to find something that’s not too pricey. So would amphetamines aka speed be what I’m looking for? Are they little white pills? Are they’re different types and names? Is there something better than amphetamines for energy? Please let me know what the dosage, average prices, and side effects are. Please edumacate me!
