Recently I posted about a 3 month meth binge. I put down the pipe and the only WD I felt was tiredness and feelign hungry.

I got hair tested the other day...and came back negative for meth.


So, what on earth have I been smoking? I am in the UK and would appriciate some info (yes, I know it was dumb not to test it) I did acetone wash.
 
This is tricky, because I wonder about the limitations of that test; BUT, drug testing discussion is verboten here.

If I remember right, you used four grams total in that three months, right? And it's been some time since your last use.

I honestly wouldn't worry about it. I quit a nine month habit (briefly) using a whole lot more, and experienced no withdrawal. Meth has a very long half life that makes cold turkey a natural taper. It's also an upper, so any withdrawal will feel like a downer, and lack the fidgety, hallucinating anxiety of other drugs.

Think about alcohol withdrawal: shakes, panic, hallucinations, cold sweats, nausea, can't eat, can't sleep--that's what it's like to be ON meth. The withdrawal from that is downright pleasant. Sleep a lot and eat everything you can, feel generally down about life. That's me sober already.

For your very low usage, you shouldn't expect anything more severe than a subtle dissatisfaction with life and less energy. For a week tops.

There's no reason to think you weren't using meth or amph.


Edit: I'm gonna close this anyway, so no one gets confused on our no-drug-test-discussion policy.
PM me if you have any questions, EP.
