I've got mild Vasoconstriction from Methylone (not Mephedrone)

I took around 250mg over the night and clearly my body didn't like it. It's been going for about 3 hours and nothing is blue (slightly off colour finger tips, tingly feet and tingly arm when I move it fast), but I was wondering if anyone has any tips to help? I took my shirt off because I assume my heart will slow. I've been taking deep breaths. I've taken Mephedrone before with no trouble, it appears Methylone affects me strongly.

I'd appreciate fast replies please, I'm fairly anxious.
 
Well, walking was incredibly difficult but it appeared the stark cold helped a great deal. I still have a huge amount of blood at the bottom of my foot, but none at the top. I hope this goes down in due course. I've had mild psychosis, seeing things that aren't there, jumping at small noises etc.

Well, I'm not touching a ketone for a long time. I feared for my life this morning.
 
Methylone did this to me as well. I have never had any side effects from mephedrone apart from the fiendishness. But methylone always gives me tingly hands and makes me feel short of breath. Once it developed into a full blown panic attack where my whole body went numb. I avoid the stuff now. It's also just as fiendish as mephedrone for me, but unlike mephedrone it fucks me up for the next 2 days. Irritating drug.
 
I have a question. I'm freezing but I'm pretty sure sitting under a blanket will aggrivate the vasoconstriction. I'm freezing in the room with a radiator on at the moment and I'm never cold in here so I guess I'll just wait it out. Cold water from the tap is absolutely freezing to the touch.

You'd have to be living in another world to say this stuff was safer than Mephedrone.

*checks what planet I'm on*

Nah it is safer, sorry to hear you're having a bad time, have you ever suffered from anxiety before? Sounds like you're panicking, try and relax, take some deep breaths, wait for the drug to wear off, if you've got any benzos at hand it'd probably be handy :)

Well, I came pretty close to a hospital visit last night, I am pretty freaked out. I have no Benzos and keep entering a state of psychosis. I never even knew Methylone was renowned for vasoconstriction, I didn't really think about it. I've not slept for about 30 hours and my heart is resting at about 110bpm. This sucks. So bad.

I'm gonna ask a friend for a Xanax, that should hopefully help.
 
That will certainly help, good luck.
Wish I knew more about these drugs but I don't, sorry I can't be of help. But it SOUNDS like you will be okay to me.
 
The vasoconstriction keeps hitting in waves. I have a feeling this is going to last a few days. My heart feels absolutely terrible too. I've drunk nothing but water and lucozade (for electrolytes). I have absolutely no appetite, do you think it would help if I forced myself to eat/

Don't be. :) I know it's easier said than done, but anxiety will just make things worse.

Getting mild vasoconstriction for a stimulant is completely normal - as are those slight side-effects. Nothing to worry about - although I would recommend plenty of hydration and keeping yourself warm.

Really? It seemed to be happening the exact same way as the Mephedrone vasoconstriction which has paralyzed one of my friends and killed a few people. The fact I feel so utterly terrible today must mean something. I almost collapsed when I was walking to my first lecture, and almost passed out from the heat in the lecture threatre. I guess I knew what I was getting myself into. I'm just happy I survived. I'm not really anxious, I never get anxiety on Mephedrone for instance, but the pounding of the heart is very obvious on Methylone regardless of my mood.

Also, surely keeping warm when vasoconstricted is bad. My temperature is 39 or so, warming up will only worsen things. Thankfully my feet have now mostly returned, blood still seems to slide around my arm when I change the angle but that should hopefully pass. The pain on my heart has lessened too and so has my heart rate. I still don't see how 250mg over 10 hours could do this to me when people happily do 1g in a session.

There's been no real improvement. I worry about sleeping in this state. If I lean on my hand in my sleep which I commonly do, it'll most likely die.
 
^Lack of sleep and food can seriously mess you up psychologically. That combined with the physical symptoms you describe doesn't sound good at all.

I suggest seeing a doctor or going to the hospital immediately.

I feel a fair amount better. I kept feeling freezing then boiling then freezing about an hour ago (now passed) but my circulation has returned mostly and tingling has gone. It appears I have to keep my feet cold to stop them constricting. My heart pain has gone and the beat has returned to normal. My psychosis has gone (thank God, I never realised seeing a bird could be so scary).

Surprisingly my knees never really seemed to change colour. Is Methylone vasoconstriction different to Mephedrone vasoconstriction?

Although the high from Methylone was fairly pleasant, it felt like a dirty version of Mephedrone in its effects. The heart pain alone was bad. That and the fact opening a door got me out of breath the next day.

I'll see how I feel tomorrow and then decide about a doctor. I'm not in any immediate danger and it seems that a number of people have a painful heart after Methylone.

To be frank, Methylone seems like a very psychologically damaging drug compared to Mephedrone. I've never had psychosis on Mephedrone even after a binge.

Thanks for the help anyway. I think I'm gonna abstain from all drugs for a while. This experience really ruined it for me.

take a hot shower and drink hot tea or water....this should improve your circulation and help with the cold

I don't think I should be trying to get warm. Vasoconstriction is the body trying to increase the core temperature by removing blood from extremeties. Body temperature increases markedly whilst vasoconstricted and I'm pretty sure you're supposed to try and get as cold as you can, even if you feel freezing so you don't overheat.

Not quite. Vasoconstriction is the body constricting the flow of blood by narrowing the blood vessels.

...and as regards keeping warm, I only say this because I know that it works for me. I am not saying wrap yourself up in 20 layers of clothing, just keep yourself at a nice temperature. As I said, in my experience keeping warm and hydrated minimises vasoconstriction. There may be some physiological reason for this, but I'm not sure what it is...

Fair enough. I had a fairly long nights sleep last night and as far as my cardiovascular system goes I'm a lot better. I feel quite weak but that's probably due to no food in 2 days. Going to eat at lunchtime today.

I think the worst is over.
