How much more abuse can I take before it gets ugly?

I have been doing amphetamines frequently for the past 5 months. Starting with 15mg and now i take about 60mg of dexedrine or 75mg adderall (rougly) to get a buzz/ do work.
I do it about everyother day but some weeks daily and some weeks i miss a couple days. I do cardio excercises 5 times a week and lift weights 2 times a week.

Do you think this is bad? am i crossing the line? it snuck up on me..
 
It's difficult to answer, cos different people have different limits.

You're definitely at risk of developing amphetamine dependence, if you don't have it already. 60mg's of Dexedrine is a pretty big dose. I'm an addict and I use roughly the same quantity as you, on the days that I can't score meth (my drug of choice), although I've been using for much longer than you have. If you can, take a break or at least try having some more days each week without using the drug.

Do you think i should worrry about heart problems this early in my use? i work out alot when doo you think my heart will start to have problems? i read about instant death cases today im kinda spooked.
 
^ It is something to be concerned about with regular stimulant abuse. I have ongoing tachycardia (my resting heartrate is about 120) and sometimes chest pains, which I attribute to stimulant abuse. I've been using for years, but I didn't jump to 60mg's of Dexedrine in the space of 5 months like you have. Also, from what I've personally noticed, Dexedrine seems to take a heavier toll on the heart than even meth.

Even if i did jump i still have massive tolerance now. Like i would say 60mg of adderall makes me feel like 30mg did months ago.

If my tolerance is twice as high does my heart still get the same amount of damage if i were to take 30 mg with my tolerance and 30mg if i didnt have tolerance?
