Just curious, they say speed is an aphorism for amphetamines. Is crystal meth the same thing as speed/amphetamines?

Speed is a slang name for “amphetamine.”
Meth is “methyl-amphetamine.”
They both have generally the same effects, but Meth is stronger because it can cross the blood-brain barrier more rapidly than amphetamine due to the methyl group.

Dear curious,
The answer is, Sort of. The Meth amphetamine is generally ‘super speed’ as it is highly concentrated, and mostly pure. Speed is usually a watered down version containing whatever cut properties they blended in, and this is seen by the appearance and smell of each. Meth is hardened and chunky, strong to the smell. Speed only smells of something right after it is finished and in its purest form. But it is sticky or damp, and very oily. Then when dried and cut is added its texture is flakier and whiter, less oily. Will smell stronger with lesser cut ins, or fresher product.

Speed is an amphetamine, meth is a methamphetamine.

Yes, in a way: “speed” is a slang term for any kind of amphetamine, i.e. methamphetamine (meth), ecstasy, and even common prescription drugs like adderall.
