You ever seen a completely healthy regular meth user?

I am sorry, but that is just a theory, pal.

That shit will take you places you cannot yet comprehend unless you've been there. It is a series of choices a person makes in combination with the drug.

I have the fucked up missing teeth and scars to prove that this is a hard fucking drug. I have ripped muscle out of my hands with my teeth and torn inch-deep holes in my shoulders with my bare hands in meth psychosis.

I associate the smell of iron with meth, because by the fourth or fifth day in I'd be covered in dried blood.

I've seen shards push right out of my cheeks and fall into my hands.

I've spent years as an IV speedballer and that was child's play compared to the hell meth brought me to in under six months.

So pardon my french but fuck your quaint little theories about healthy meth use. Some handle it better than others but other than very occasional single uses, but this chemical will fuck your shit up bigtime.

Goddamn, do I agree with you. After spending time working as an RA at a local university hospital, and working on a research project involving the neurological effects of methamphetamine, I couldn't agree with you more. 

Without going into scientific detail (which can be googled - search for meth neuron synapses): meth will physically "dry out" or otherwise increase the size of synapses in your brain. This effect takes place even after light use. There is NO SUCH THING as a healthy meth user, even if they somehow give off a healthy appearance, their brain is being broken down by the d

Question,

- What is the difference between Speed and Meth?

I can only seem to find this kind of "Speed" in Montreal (and it's sold as Speed, not Meth). When I take it, I don't really feel high (unless I take ALLOT), I just feel awake/alert. I don't feel jittery or sketchy, I don't get sweaty or gross, I can still eat/etc.

There is hardly any comedown to speak of, and generally don't have that hard of a time falling asleep once it wears off, and the day after I feel pretty much fine - no real hangover/sketch/feeling like my insides are rotting.


Even when I'm still high, I can manage to 'rest' - not really sleep, but can lay down / close my eyes and feel 'cozy' for a bit, and get back up 30-60mins later and feel like I've gotten a bit of rest, where on meth I'm jittery / tossing & turning / etc.

In fact, I rather like it - and it's probably good I can't find a source for it locally :P and, even the times I have found it locally - the supplier has gotten it from Montreal.

Feels /very/ different from the times I've done Meth (and I refuse to do it / buy it anymore) as usually, even doing a small amount of meth leads me to being awake longer than I'd like with a comedown that sucks badly and isn't even worth it followed by a day or two feeling like complete ass.

Hell, it feels 'cleaner' than prescription stuff like Dexamphetamine

If what you say is true, why is [methamphetamine] still used as a prescription medication? 

Why would a doctor prescribe something like that to be taken every day?

Clearly you haven't read anything about how harmless methamphetamine is when used under a doctor's supervision.

no need to tell me...I was responding to the idea of "how could a doctor prescribe something with harmful side effects?"

Do you SEE?  Had nothing to do with methamphetamine

"warning: this prescription drug may cause blindness, seizures, loss of hearing, weight gain, heart problems, heart attack, stroke, diarrhea, blood clots, menstrual pain, abdominal pain, paranoia, increased thoughts of suicide, high blood pressure, swelling of the ankles, and/or death"
