Meth ⫸Methamphetamine Megathread⫷

Hey guys just wanna check in with yall. Was a IV heroin/opiate (downers in general) addict for most my using, but in the last 2-3 years have switched over to meth. Mainly because it's all I can find where I live. Opiates got so hard to come by. Anyways, I kinda just go on 2-3 day binges every 1-2 weeks, which is just kinda how it's been going lately. I have a girlfriend who tries to kill me every time I use because she's so pissed. Eventually she convinces me to go to detox or something and come down, it's kinda fucked up. Probably not the healthiest relationship, but there are definitely still good times between when I'm using....

Anyways, just wanted to check in with my peeps and say hey.

That sounds horrible ans really unhealthy for both of you bro. Have you thought about ending the relationship? I mean, if you're invested in continuing to use, which is fine if that's what you wanna do. Sounds like it would take a heavy toll emotionally on both of you. And that's how you waste years.

I've only ever had a handful or partners that were okay with my meth use...whilst it's popular here in Australia, there's still a huge stigma, a lot of negative media-driven hype and of course the extra stigma one gets for being an IV user.

I've been using for 18 years now (I'm 35) and have led a relatively productive and fulfilling life, I think the secret is sleeping and eating every day you possibly can.

I've just moved states and having some chill time in South Australia atm, went from everyday use in Melbourne (around 1-2 points a day, sometimes more sometimes less) for 6 months to nothing for 8 weeks. Have decided to treat myelf for having 2 months off and ordered some from my friend over there, just a small serve. Absolutely hanging for it to arrive haha but keeping the fiend at bay by working on assignments.

Do you enjoy your using time more than your downtime with your girlfriend? What do you get up to when you're high? It can be a very lonely experience when you're using and you have to hide it from your partner.
 
Thanks for the words man I appreciate the comment. Yeah we've talked seriously about ending it and decided it's for the better to stay together at the very least for the 3 kids (2 are hers, 1 ours). IT does get very lonely and scary for both of us at times. She is a nurse, the caretaker type of girl who wants to bring people back to health and I'm more of a taker I guess.

I enjoy my family time much more than my using time and your right I need to get my priorities straight, it's just so fucking hard when that shit has ahold of you, you know?

That's, funny I have a package on it's way to me too and the mail just came and went and I died a little inside because it wasn't there. lol good luck and thanks

I could/can never figure out wtf is going on when I do (I smoke) a hit and then lean back on the couch and doze/nod. I have no clue as to why this happens, but it feels just like a H nod.

Ive talked to a bunch of IV stim heads about this...it?s happened to me too...but only on like day 2 of heavy use...from what I?ve gathered it?s ur body?s way of tellin ya to take a tolerance break...I went hard on the IV for like 3 weeks...yea I slept, kinda, and forced down food and water but I was takin .3 shots like 3-4 times a day/night...I had energy the entire run, I work Construction, so I?m legit outside doin shit for 10 hrs a day so that was chill. But after the first week of this routine I would bang a shot...and nothin, no ice breath...no euphoric rush...just kinda squirlly/tweaky.
Changed up my routine after that run. Stopping is no prob, like I can?t believe people call it withdraw..lol
i shot speedballs for 2 years, gettin off that and Valium was a fuckin nightmare (havnt touched an opiate in 3 yrs✊?)
So on day 2 no meth I ate an 8th of mushrooms and spent the day outside. Changed my whole shit up...took like
A month tolerance break than went hard for like 2 days. I alternate between 2-3 days of meth fueled debachary to 2-3 months off. I work 55 hrs a week, and generally life is good. Hit me up if ya got any questions??

I'm new and this is my first post. Really needing advice. A brief history: I've used meth off and on for the past 4 years or so, a few weeks on then a few months off, smoking only until recently. I'd get burned out and no real desire to continue... no problem. A little over a year ago I IV'd for the first time after being sober for 6 months. Just had a bad breakup, loss of a job, and my car dying all in the same week... I was in a bad place and a friend introduced me to the idea, said it would help... I was reluctant to try it from the start mostly due to being a type 1 diabetic and the impact on my heath IV would have. He assured me it wasn't any worse than smoking so I agreed to a small amount. The rush was intense andI felt amazing! But that shot led to almost a 2 week bender with barely any sleep, forget to eat, forget to hydrate... at the end i remember my chest hurting, felt my heart beating out of my chest, blood was thick and hard to register at that point, paranoia and anxiety, guilt, depression, constant worry and hyper aware of the way my body felt. My buddies were all doing these huge monster shots and mine were a fraction of that but still I felt like I was more likely to have a heart attack because of my diabetes. In hindsight it was only an intense panic attack. But in that moment it was real and to "save myself" I insisted he dose me a shot of H to counter and level out. I'd swore that H was something I'd never do and I haven't again since. But it opened my eyes how outta control it had become. That 2 weeks was the longest day of my life and the events that went on just blur together. I quit everything and moved home with family...

Fast forward to now. I had been clean for 10 months. 3 month's ago i started a new job, got a place, began a new relationship, and recently a car with the overtime. She enjoyed meth on occasion so I told her my story and the lessons I learned. I told myself that now I knew what bottom looks like so I can prevent a downward spiral. I'm in control. Wasn't long before I'm using the needle again primarily. Eating, hydrating, and sleeping fairly regular, adulting. We became close and then she left me a month ago and im back in my feelings. I have no social and now i work 12 hours a day 6 days a week. Ive been shooting at least 4 times a day almost everyday since early October. It's become routine. I've checked myself into the ER twice since then thinking I'd done too much. Both times they said I was fine, gave me benzos and sent me on. Even with all that I still continue to push the limits, I tell myself now that I need the overtime. My family is rooting for me and far as they know I'm on the right track. Fact is I've relapsed. I'm keeping the doses relatively small but my tolerance is building and I don't see an end in sight now. I want to know how bad I'm hurting myself with my condition and prolonged use? I'm afraid but also very curious of what a "monster shot" might do to me. I've read so many post about people doing half gram shots and it being great where my half gram lasts me 3 or 4 days only to stay awake. My biggest fear is to be found dead by my mom when she's done all she can to help me and thinks im making good choices. Shes proud of all the progress I've made but she doesn't know I'm still in the fight... no one does. I need to quit or at least know where the limit is. How long can i keep this up? What symptoms are real and dangerous as opposed to just panic and anxiety? How or if it is more harmful to someone with diabetes? What will happen and what to expect as normal if i continue mild to moderate daily use? These are my thoughts and Any input is appreciated.

There is no end and there is no limit except death. If you take the time to research and read (a lot) about meth, you'll find it's the worst drug out there for your mind and body. It does permanent damage, and the way it affects your body is contraindicated with a lot of ways type 1 diabetes affects you. You're correct in fearing that it's worse on you than a normal person, and you really are flirting with death bro, but at the same time try to stop worrying so much and allowing fucked up images to come into your mind. Don't feed the beast.

Trust me dude, I mean really trust me and listen to words, IVing meth will only lead you down a bad road. The people on here who say they lead normal lives while doing it are downplaying it and most likely flat out lying about some of it. It only gets worse and worse, and there's scientific research to back up what my experience is trying to tell you.
 
Wanted to ask if anyone who have tried both smoked or IV meth, could compare it to (smoke/IV ?) use of Heroin in terms of addiction

aiiight...whelp...I shot dope on the streets of Philadelphia for two years. Went thru some fucked up shit (to say the least)
went to treatment...havnt touched an opiate in 2.5 yrs. (brushes off both shoulders)
i moved out west 2 years ago and occasionally fuck with some really good crystal. And let me tell ya...IV is the way to be...shit is amazing. So after my first shot what did I do?...go on a 3 week meth fueled run...duh. It was pretty fun...staying up...bangin diff chicks like a fuckin pornstar...sleeping a little...eating a little...IV 3 shots a day...each .25...all while working construction 55hrs a week. The problem with meth is, no matter how conscious I was about eating, drinking and sleeping, my body just started to fall apart. Losing weight, skin tone, and just general well being started to decrease. And ya get to the point where even a thick shot of that shit just doesn?t do much. Tolerance is a bitch right!?!
example...my very first shot was prob .07 and it fuckin rocked me, ain?t gonna lie, my dick just moved a little thinkin about it. 3 months later is when my 3 week run started...and I could go they a gram in a day preparing 4 syrupy shots per day, and my dick didn?t move at all, not even a little. Now...I operate a little smarter these days...I take 2-3 months off and then get down for 2 days. I?m feelin pretty good about that...it allows me to keep up sleep, nutrition and all around health. And I get high...so that?s fun too.
as far as your question about addiction to both these substances imma go ahead and say the drugs are a variable and the addict is the constant. Like if ur fuckin with these two substances ROA IV...u prob have issues with addiction, not to say that prevents responsible use, but for an addict it?s a tricky line to walk. Who knows...I could stop meth forever, and still get addicted to anything that makes me feel good, gym and nutrition are my go to sober addiction. I know this post is long and I hope it answered ur question. You are obviously interested in IV ROA of both these drugs...I say go for it...try it out, but respect tha drug, cuz u will get got. Best of luck to ya!...if ya got any questions let em rip...
 
everytime im on a meth binge for lets say 2-3 days, the tip of my nose turns red. i literally look like rudolf the red nosed reindeer. please help :?
 
I have been using meth to get off of Roxie's for the last 4 days . Very little food or rest..I've at least tried every common street drug, but after ODing on H in February, I decide that I deserve to at least try living the best life I possibly can. And I want to be the father I never had. Even after OD it took me 2 more weeks before putting the H down. I went to 5 Roxy blues a day. That got expensive and I didn't have an end game, so on Friday I got some crystal. First night I did .25 grams and basically spent the entire night in the garage smoking the pipe. When left alone, my main tweak is on that fucking pipe. Saturday picked up .5 g, snorted and smoked while I read this entire thread. Sunday got another .5, but I smoked/Vaped the first .25, and then when everyone was asleep, I IVed for the first time in my life. It was amazing. I redosed at 3 am with the remainder and it was even more intense. Today, my last day of meth bc I should be over opiates, I got another .25 and hit it in one shot. This wouldn't be my doc if I was able to pick something, I really liked H, but I have enjoyed IVing Ice so much that it scares me. I'm a true drug addict/alcoholic through and through. I remember hearing about IVing meth when I was in rehab and always had the desire in the back of my mind. This thread served its purpose to the fullest: I shot safely and cleanly, and I have read enough people warn others to run from meth if they can. Thank you BL!

Yeah almost every person on it succumbs to addiction or death or psychosis. Many are never the same.
 
What would you guys recommend to reduce methamphetamine neurotoxicity?
thanks in advance
 
I'll never fucking learn.

A few hours ago I did a shot of meth in the thumb side of my wrist that was too much and too thick. It burned a good bit but I registered a couple times so I don't think it was a miss. Anyway immediately after my veins on that side start throbbing, burning, and doing this awful tightening/pulling thing, so I put a hot rag on it for a few minutes then switched microwavable pad, and for some reason every time I put even a little pressure on the pad, it felt like stinging lava under my skin until I moved it. Now the spot is very tender to the touch and it's swollen randomly from my thumb to the injection spot, and theres a major tightening across the whole top of my arm. ALSO I just remembered that when the pain was really weird and at its worst, my right arm kept having shooting tightening spots, like it was some kind of radiating pain.

My question: it registered so it was definitely in my vein. Could it have just been totally caused by the thickness of the shot combined with me being too dehydrated for it to move thru my veins?
 
I think you missed. It will burn a good bit when you miss, like it did in your case. And thickness of the liquid/dehydration I don't think would case that giant chain reaction of discomfort. Hitting the thumb is hard - the slightest movement will screw you up, even after you register.

Did you even feel the rush?
