I used to be a meth addict, but I've been off for about a year. For the past two weeks, I've been taking 2 caffeine/ephedrine pills (200 mg's of caffeine), and haven't felt much of a difference, but 4 hours ago, I took one, and now I can't stop shaking, my vision is blurring, my heart is pounding, I'm having a hard time breathing, and I can't really perceive my head. What the fuck is going on? These symptoms have been going on for 15 minutes, ever since I got out of a hot shower. Is this going to go away? I'm concerne.
 
Hey relax your fine... I take ephedrine almost everyday to weightlift.. People that first try this can get really jittery.. but it will pass... drink water.... Sometimes when i work out hard i get that feeling i think it when your body overheats.... just sit back it will pass
 
This sort shit can happen on ephedrine and related stuff, it should pass within reasonable timeframe - sit down, try to relax, drink water and breathe slowly and shit - stay in the neighbourhood of a phone and if it gets worse call a doctor (ephedra is pretty mainstream so no consequences to worry about)
 
first off, ephedrine's just as bad for you as meth, second you dont wanna smoke a joint, your heart will pound even harder and faster...
 
The same exact thing happen to me once, I took 6 hydroxycut pills.. I was really jittery and the fact that my heart was pounding so hard scared the hell outta me.. If I put my hand on my chest I could feel it pounding. I layed in bed for about a hour till my heart slowed down a bit. Now every time my heart pounds like that for whatever reason I just tell myself "Don't worry about it, Your gonna be fine, Just relax".. Stuff like that.. And I end up forgetting about it in a matter of minutes. Your ok, Don't worry !!

Thats funny...
Some people handle it differently than others...
 
Heh... when you get to that point, you won't want to touch any kind of drugs, even if you have a full carton of smokes and a supply of benzos at your disposal.
Helpful hints: It's partly psychosomatic. If you're under a lot of stress, this sort of thing can happen, you get the shakes and feel like you're going to die, except there's no way you've taken enough meth/ephedrine/caffeine/whatever to actually kill you. Still, if you're peeing a lot, try to keep yourself hydrated, and wrap yourself in a blanket. The pressure against your skin helps with the shakes.
If you're one of those people that can force yourself to sleep when you're on meth/caffeine/whatever, it's best to try and do that.
 
drink a gatorade.
you say youve not had this effect b4. id say you prob have different circumstances that youre aware of... possibly youre dehydrated b4 taking the pills, or perhaps you had too much "other stimulants"(coffe/tea) today.
no "joints" when your heart-rate is up.
