Practically every drug Ive taken has fialed to work the first go. I smoked 5 times b4 I got stoned (and even then it didnt work easily).
But even more so with speed - I took this about 10 times, and never really understood it - I kept expecting to get "wasted" or something.....in actual fact, it seems to do the opposite, ie If I was stoned, Id be less so, if I was Eing off my nut, I no longer would be. I almost went to hospital once after taking 12 diet pills in Thailand (a form of shitty speed), coz they didnt seem to have any effect.....but the fact I couldnt eat and barely sleep for 3 days and eventually thought I waz gunna die proved that they did!!!
After vowing to never bother with it again, I had it once for free at a party, and forgot about it, expecting nothing at all.....it finally worked!!!
Yeah, I can see why ppl use it now, but I still think its a dirty, shitty drug to be avoided. (I can feel a flame coming on)
