Hey
@Byzek I cam see from your several posts now and a few months back that you are interested in 5-HTP and Meth and maybe having a few problems or worries with Meth.
I’d really like to help you out. I’ve been addicted to Meth twice. Once for 6 months and once for 12 months. I injected it, ate it, smoked it, and shoved it up my ass at different times.
For most people a period of short term use does no lasting damage. However, even short term use can bring on psychosis, paranoia and anxiety that can last a few weeks or months. For most people this goes away and they recover fine.
The feelings you are having about your face are a kind of anxiety or paranoia that is really common. Meth can make your eyes and cheeks look sunken - especially if you miss a lot of sleep. If you stop meth, get good sleep, and eat healthy you’ll find you look like your old self really quickly. Usually when I quit meth I put on weight - including on my face.
From what you have posted about your usage you might be one of the unlucky people who get distorted thinking really quickly on meth. This means you are at greater risk of serious psychosis if you keep taking it.
You have also posted that you do not really appreciate the effects of meth. Even if you don’t get a strong enjoyable high from meth you can still get all the negative effects from neurotoxicity, to cardiovascular problems, to psychological issues.
I would suggest that you be clear about why you want to take meth. There may be a better drug or drug combination that will help you get what you want to experience more safely.
As for 5-HTP. It is a supplement that is not well scientifically validated and it’s benefits are primarily anecdotal or hypothetical. There is some evidence that it should not be taken alone but only in a slow-release stack with certain dopamine or serotonin amino acid precursors in order to minimize side effects, prevent neurotransmitter depletion, and to get the most efficacy from the 5-HTP itself.
A more immediately effective supplement for meth users is Magnesium and a complex multivitamin. These will help with the cramps you mention.
Please feel free to hit me up directly if you have more problems with meth or don’t get amswers to your questions.
