so lately I've been buying shards. I've had a steady habit for about 2 months. getting .2-.3 every 2-3 days. In the beginning, my jaw grinds back and forth, I fidget and twitch, and i talk real fast. I usually administer intranasally or orally, but also occasionally administer it intrarectally, by smoking, or intravenously. I get stimulated, but its as if i can eat normal or even more than normal food on it now.(ate a steak earlier tonight), yawn often, and even go to sleep. Could it be tolerance? Maybe the yawning? The big plate of food I ate? May jaw problems stopped, even when I'm near a psychotic episode. I can even eat on psychotic episodes. Has anyone else felt the same way? I did have ADD when I was seven and took ritalin for it.
 
I have experienced this with other stimulants. Not shards in particular, but base amphetamine (speed), had a similiar sort of effect on me. At first I was wire off my nuts, unable to sleep the first night and generally running about trying to repair stuff. It slowly got to the point were it would not really motivate me as much anymore, and a result was dissapointed each time I had a session. I soon became able to eat on it, to sit down and watch tv and relax on it, as well as these weird sleeps, were I did not really sleep but rested (which were unheard of when I first started).

I think it is tolerance, although the massive steak seems strange lol.
 
well, it wasn't MASSIVE, but it was some nice strips of steak and rice. =D The past 2 weeks I'm able to snort a couple bumps, then eat, then about 5 hours later, I would actually feel hungry and start making some eggs. I'd even IV'd approximately about 20 mg after smoking a little bit of it and snorted a couple bumps and managed to eat a bowl of cereal and stuff down some rice with no nausea or discomfort. A couple nights back I may have had too much, and it was from a 2 day run. I was tired and had peripheral disturbances in my field of vision, seeing something move from the corner of my eye, and had general feelings of paranoia, yet no bruxia or supressed appetite(maybe slightly but still able to scarf down a small meal)
 
Hmm, you sure its methamph??? Maybe you're not doing enough. Ime once I'm proper buzzing, food and sleep are simply out of the question until at least 24 hours later, usually more as I'm an idiot fiend that has to redose!!!!
 
Ex meth addict to the rescue! Youre not doing enough. Meth is used for the initial rush, unless your substituting for Coke. When you snort/smoke/iv enough you will get an intense rush then a long stimulation. When I started I would smoke a .1 bowl to myself to get this. Later on in my use I would do 3 points in about 4 hours. Anyways once youve gotten your dose to one that will give you this rush you will have difficulty eating and even more sleeping. Believe it or not the more you eat the higher you will get and it will last longer. If you smoke too much though you will pass out.
 
Also if the rush makes you sweat a little thats good. Clammyness is next to godliness. I liked that dose, if you start leaving sweat marks on your shirt before youre done smoking youve gone too far. Damn I still have stained shirts from smoking too much at once.
 
It could be an issue with the quality of your meth coupled with tolerance. when i've been doing amphetamine daily for a month or two the accumulated sleep deprivation and lack of food means that once tolerance starts to build, the hunger and tiredness start to pounce :\
 
It's pretty normal to function like you are with a steady dose for that long. Many of those "worn out" sickly looking users are the ones who chase a high like a cat and mouse game. This is what often results in meth's notorious burglar reputation

Meth represents a pleasure center nuke. Meth's stimulant brethren manifest a more noticeable set of stimulant side effects. I have met people who cannot eat or sleep without using a little meth. It's one of the most bipolar stimulants I've ever seen upon addiction.

You don't really pass out per say...more like you "over-amp" and go into sleep paralysis (which is where your body shuts down and you can't move but you have partial or full consciousness). I've had sleep paralysis twice, once from over-amping, and once from something unrelated to meth...it's not fun at all...the meth one lasted about 12 hours and all I could think about was hitting a pipe...FUCK that shit...
 
When I smoke too much meth, my arms and legs move around in weird circles and I can't control them for a few minutes. I can always eat on meth.

It sounds like tolerance though! Take a break!
 
It's either tolerance or you're not getting the real deal. With the sleeping, it could be that you have ADHD and react differently to stimulants. That doesn't explain the massive appetite, though. I suppose not all people get appetite loss from stims but it's pretty common.

That said, I took meth for the first time last night and promptly went to sleep. I'm also nursing a nasty head cold so that could have a lot to do with it.

Strange how people react so differently to the same drug, eh?
 
After multiple straight days you get hungry and can functional in that respect normally, not feel really high at all, even yawn and feel tired. And then there is tolerance.
Are you doing it daily? To get back the real high where the last thing you will ever think about is food you need to stop for a few days.

Meth is perfect for weekend use and never builds a tolerance in this way ino, 6 months down the line every weekend.
In fact it seems to work better and better each time.
 
happens to me often when i have been on it for too long, eating food is like a primal instinct that will come back no matter what and after a while its just natural it to have some nibbles even though you're still high. after a few days on it your body is so weak that (unless you increase dosage by heaps) you can fall asleep straight after a pipe.

my dealer is on it almost 24/7 and consumes it every way possible but he sleeps at least 2 hours a day, and whenever i head up to his place he's like "can you buy me a sundae" or "are you able to pick up a loaf of bread"
 
basically you reach a point where you just level out and don't get any higher and eating food and sleeping seems like a doable option.
but meth basically kills the receptors in your brain that craves food. after the initial few hours of being high, if i put some food in front of you and tell you to eat it, you would be able to do it fine, albeit just a little portion
 
i get that way to man i just load me up a nice .4 bowl smoke till its gone then snort a .1 line and vibe out and run the coarse of the high
