Goddamnit, withdrawing at 3 am and subject to all the demons in my head.

Yesterday was shitty, long story short, I popped 4 adderal given to me by a lady friend. I got horny as hell and got turned down for sex even though the kissing and groping has been mutual for a while now. She leaves, I stay up all night looking at porn.

When the adderall begins to wear off I realize I missed my dose of opiates. Blessing in disguise I guess, I'd never just forget like that if it wasn't for the insanity that uppers seem to cause in me. Thinking of copping tomorrow morning but have been too tired and lamenting that I could just force myself to wait this whole thing out.

At some point earlier today, I could feel a small particle of a tooth that was rolling around my mouth. I know it was a piece of tooth because I've had chipped teeth before, it's a pretty distinctive feeling. I'm going to have to stop using drugs or these things are going to fall out. Last time I went to the dentist they said my molars were corroding I guess from the dry mouth I get from my DoC. Also had a couple of cavities.

I'm only 21 and look young and healthy on the outside but I know I'm pushing the limits of the abuse my body can handle. I've known young people in rehab who have talked about their teeth disintegrating or falling out. It disgusts me.

I know there's only one answer to fix this but being a good junkie I'm wondering if there's some other solution to fix the dry mouth. Or something my dentist can do?
 
Well, there is a new spray to get rid of dry mouth. But my advice is to drink lots of water, it will also help your liver out a bit. As far as teeth grinding goes, chew gum. It might not help your jaw hurting the next day, but it saves your teeth.
 
The meds i am on both the psych meds and opiates give me really bad dry mouth. I find the only thing that helps is to drink lot's of water so yeah id say do that. Plus it's good for you to drink a lotta water on amphetamines so you don't get dehydrated. Chewing gum also helps me abit anyway.

I think this is more suited for basic drug discussion then TDS as you may get better responses over there.

So TDS >>>> BDD
 
^Chewing gum helps a lot. Use a sugar free gum with xylitol in it, it actually starves the bacteria of sugars and kills some of them. Brushing, flossing and using a mouthwash help a lot too.

Keep a bottle of water handy when you're on amphetamines and it will make a world of a difference.

I'm going to edit the title of your thread for easier searching in the future, feel free to PM me if you have any questions. :)

Hmm i never knew that at all. That's good info to have because i get really bad dry mouth which is not only really annoying but bad for your teeth so i will have a look for gum with that stuff in it.

Thanks man :)
