All these replacement phenidates seem to be either very shit or potentially dangerous.
I researched the dosage range for 3fpm yesterday and 70mg was stated as the upper limit for safety. Due to tolerance i bombed the 70mg, didnt feel a fucking thing except very bad tachcycardia when it first kicked in. Thankfully that wore off after about 30 minutes of walking very slowly and stopping for a rest. But that obviously has to get ditched, if i push the dose im either gonna end up in hospital or dead. Im already having heart problems with eph and pent allnighters, and really must stop doing them for a lot of very good reasons, the problem is the compulsive nature of these sessions. And my own weak will.
I researched ethylnaphinate this morning, and there seems to be a lot of safety concerns about that too. Recommended dose is 5mg intranasal. Any more and heart problems set in. People have been taking 300mg and ending up in hospital. On the positive side it is being regarded as very close to cocaine in its effects, including the short duration. On the negative side that could easily lead to compulsive redosing.
The vendors new business model is not good long term business practice. Putting your customer base in the morgue or hospital will not be good for business.
Thank you ACMD for your latest round of bans.

Do you see what has happened as a direct result.

This is the clearest example yet that banning specific substances does nothing except lead to the introduction of even more dangerous and untested compounds. I thought you guys were supposed to be clever. Then again you probably live in Ivory Towers, and not the Real World. Fucking ludicrous ridiculous policy making.

Id possibly even go so far as to prefer the only viable alternatives, a complete blanket ban on all legal highs, or just turn a blind eye to the whole thing, as you have been doing for several years until something high profile happens. The current policy just does not make any sense on any level. How many times do they need to see this practice fail to realise that it's not working. 8(
Decriminalisation/Legalisation will never happen unless the Green Party and Liberal Democrats form a coalition government. At the moment there's more chance of Elvis phoning me up than that happening, but if propotional represantation was introduced, the Greens, who got 1 million votes, and if fair is fair, they would have got a sizeable number of MPs. Dunno how many votes the libs got. But if PR was introduced people might not feel that voting Green or Lib Dem was a wasted vote, and they might start doing a lot better. Still such a long way away that it might as well be dismissed completely as a possibilty for the forseeable future.
