Using selegiline as a stimulant has a lot more risks (some irreversible!) and side effects than just using an amphetamine or methylphenidate like anyone else seeking the same effect would.

In general it speaks to a level of personal recklessness you don't even see in the typical cocaine guzzling white collar criminal.
