Possibly thought of a way to easily crush XR beads...

I had an idea in regards to defeating the time release mechanism of various capsuled pharms...

I'm not sure if it would actually work, so I'm hoping somebody with more knowledge of the subject could verify/disprove my theory. Also, this only works if you still plan on taking the drug orally.

So, first empty all the beads onto a whole stick of chewing gum, making sure they are all laying on the top surface. Next, take another stick of gum, basically making a sandwich with gum as the bread and the beads as the filling. Simply chew until you feel the beads have been sufficiently crushed and then just swallow the gum.

Again, I haven't actually tried this yet, seeing as I have no XR drugs at my disposal, but if anyone knows whether or not this would work (or has some XR beads and wants to try it), let me know!
 
Theoretically, this could work. The only issue I could see would be the beads being too small / hard to be effectively crushed by the teeth. You might end up with a lot of little beads stuck in your teeth while you sit there moving your tongue around like a mad man tryna get em all lol 8o Hard to tell, though, unless somebody tries.

As a smoker, the way I always crushed beads (from when SWIM was like 15 with my Adderall XR hahaha) was to pull the bottom segment of plastic off my pack of cigs, pour the beads into that, fold over the top a few times, fuse the layers together to seal the top with a gentle flame / heat source, and then go to town with whatever hard object I had around. I found this method allowed for effective crushing of both small and large quantities of beads, and the flexibility / convenience of the plastic always allowed for easy manipulation of the contained substance(s)

Yeah, there are several more effective ways to crush the beads; I was just thinking of a way to possibly be discreet with it/do it on the go. If nobody else does, next time I get some XR Focalin I'll give it a shot.

Also, you don't need to use "SWIM" on BL. It's generally looked down upon here and it doesn't really help you avoid self-criminalization. (Figured I'd tell you before someone else does, some people on here get really worked up about it and act like dicks.)

Also, welcome to Bluelight.
 
i empty the XR beads into a shot glass used for alcohol. i then get a drum stick (music) and take the butt of it and crush the beads by spinning the stick once it is in contact with the beads. i then add water to my drugs and swallow. this seems pretty effective. pestle and mortar works really well too.

LOL thanks for the heads up!!! =D Totally get what you mean. I figured I'd get less shit for using SWIM unnecessarily than I would not using it if i was supposed to. That's when all hell breaks loose 8(

This is exactly how I crush them.

The shot glass/butt of a screwdriver/whatever combo is really more like a ghetto mortar and pestle than anything else, and it is plenty effective.

LOL oh Oxide =D

An alternative method is to get a piece of paper, fold it in half, fold the edges so the beads dont roll out, then pour the beads, fold the top, and roll a lighter/phone over the beads, then put them back in the capsule and pop it or take it on the go.

Sounds convenient.
Also convenient: straws...they're everywhere!
I always see ppl chewing on them. Weird.

side note: Spent alot of time in York when I was younger..
drinking Yuengling..while listening to Live.
This is when I discovered all you York ppl are trouble.

=D token
 
Holy shit it's not rocket science, put the freaking beads between a folded piece of paper, make sure you press your fingers down around them so they "fenced in" and use a lighter or other flat object to crush. Why on earth would you wanna chew it with gum, and I'm pretty sure gum doesn't digest well so wouldn't that just make them extended release anyways lol...

God, it was just an idea I had. No need to get so upset.
 
More like in trouble. Either we discover York is lame and move, or we become lame to fit in with the city.

They all think it's Pittsburg or Philly....
No!
It's the little guys in lame towns...
with way too much of nothing
going on that cause all the real trouble!

Forget the gum..
get out while you still can.;)

Try that with kadians or hydromorph contins and all your going to do is crack off your fucking teeth.
 
^I've heard of Nucynta ER's breaking pill cutters, blades, scissors, those tough new ER formulations are a bitch and a half to cut.

Luckily, Adderall/Dexedrine ER beads are extremely easy to crush from what I understand, so it's up to you OP, we pretty gave you every method in this thread other than the two spoons methods, which is to crush the beads between two spoons... "spooning" eachother, just be careful of runaway beads.

Ive never had nucynta yet as it's only new on the market here and costs a fortune. Plus my insurance won't cover it and i have really no desire to try a tramadol analog that has strong norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor actions. Though i would try it for free needless to say.

The hydromorph contins are a real pain in the ass to crush. The method i use for those is to put the beads on a desk or something solid and flat and put a card like a credit card or whatever over the beads. Then i roll a 10lbs weight over them until they are dust. So much for being abuse proof :\ . Dexedrine spansules are easy enough to crush though and so are m-esslons which is a brand of morphine SR.

I would highly recommend not using the 2 spoons method since i had to Ive up trying to do that due to flying pill matter going all over the place :!
 
I've tried nucynta for free a couple times..and it was worth every penny!

I know I'm a girl..but I am also no fan of spooning...
when there's better alternatives. ;)
