Got a pesky coke habit of around 1g/day snorted. I want to stop but have trouble w/ the lethargic tired feeling I get from w/d. I'm on 140mg/day MMT and got into the blow in the first place BC it kept me awake!

So, how and what do yall reccommend I do to compensate for being so damn tired from stopping the coke?

I thought about using Benzedrex (propylhexadrine ?) To keep me alert, but don't know about the safety of using it on a daily basis for a week or two...thoughts?

I'm doing the excercise, sleep, and eat healthy thing, but that won't help me in the short term, also energy drinks/suppliments don't do much. I've tried 37mg of ephedrine that didn't do anything, how high of a dose should I try?

Is there anything else that is legal/otc that people would suggest?
 
Caffeine is readily available and can be your friend for a low price.

Ephedrine is also a good option, probably better than caffeine.

Keep up the good work with proper eating and exercise, I'm sure your hard work will pay off.
 
Thanks for the reply tricomb, what do u (or ne1) think about daily benzedrex usage?

Also what would be a strong but safe dose of ephedrine? And how ftequently should I dose?
 
I personally haven't used propylhexadrine (Benzedrex) so I don't feel comfortable giving advice on that.

As for the ephedrine, I would try to keep usage under 75mg per day, I think the maximum is 100mg/day but I would not recommend taking that much, it gets really unpleasant.
 
I recommend just spending a couple days in bed, but if you have to do stuff caffeine might be a good idea or a low dose of amphetamines.
 
My recommendation is to stay away from Amphetamine. A substitute addiction will be very easy to develop in these early, crucial days. If you really need something stronger than caffeine maybe ask a doctor.

I know Bupropion and Aripiprazole are being investigated for decreasing the cravings of stimulant addicts.
 
nuvigil/provigil would be my biggest recomendation for this, as it is not recreational but can help you stay awake and alert.

trading one addiction for another is stupid. and propylhezedrine is like the last thing you wanna take, its just gonna remind you how much better coke is, and get you back on that shit so fast.
 
Just dont do the coke...Easier said than done of course but I mean If you have things around you more intriuging it shouldnt be that hard at all, not just like K, opies, mxe, weed what not but like, look for some movies you havent seen but you want to watch, look for some new music to listen too.
 
Thanks everyone,

I'm not *TOO* worried about the cravings, I don't even really like the stuff. I only started to do it again to keep me awake and alert during the day to counteract the grogginess from the methadone. Admitedly I've caught myself doing more or more frequently than needed for just the purpose of staying awake.

But still, I don't think I will start to use b/c of cravings, I'm much more worried that ill use again b/c I won't be able to keep my eyes open at work!

That said, aamphetamines are a no go for me, I want to stick with legal otc options. Ur def right about the benzedrex being a coke trigger tho, on the days I've done it b/c couldn't get coke, it worked, but I just kept thinking how much better all around coke would be...

I think that caffiene/energy drinks are option 1 even tho they haven't really worked in the past. Also gonna use the ephedrine.

Lastly, gonna use otc diet/workout pills. As far as that stuff goes, can anyone suggest a particularly potent fat burner supp for giving energy? I know about the standard chems, but what about the not so common compounds, like CLA, DMAA (I think that's right) and those other "fat burning" chems/supps that are in a legal grey area now. The ones that are legal but only sold online that aren't RC's but are only known to the hardcore bodybuilders...
 
As far as the workout/body building type stuff, if i assume your talking about diet pills/ pre-workout drinks, the main things that give that "EXPLOSION OF ENERGY" are most of the time just simply either caffeine or ephedrine.

In terms of legal grey areas, those nutrition type places operate a lot like the same way id presume the RC companies do. Pro-hormones i remember were extremely popular, but as soon as the FDA comes by and says "no no", everything is yanked, and there is a waiting period for a couple months just until the companies that make all of it tweak one little thing here or there, thus making it legal again.

But in terms of what you are looking for, unless you plan on trying to get some muscle/work-out, there is nothing really in a GNC for what seems to be your problem, as again there are hundreds upon hundreds of different fat burners and compounds, but the main things that your going to look for are the caffeine and ephedrine type stuff, which if i read correctly you already have, so unless there is some internet type thing someone else knows about, the whole GNC approach wont help ya all that much.
