DESOXYN: just started on, need advice from others familiar with it....

"I do have 20 + hits of Desoxyn left. Guess where they're goin? "

If you feel like disposing of thoes 5mg Ovation babies i'll save you the trouble of disposing them while making it your worthwhile PM me LOL.

"You may want to give ritalin a try as it is a very different stimulant feel to meth." --Maybe thats not a great idea in your case, as it's pharmacologically VERY similar to Coke.

I found Dexamphetamine far more sleep inducing (low doses, 5-10mgs) than Ritalin, it put me into a very deep sleep the first few times i trialed it, higher doses however were a different story.
 
I guess I really don't understand cocaine/mdma addiction then le junk. I mean, meth is more than enough of a seratonin rush to keep a junkie happy, but its just not what you want. Coke really hit the spot for you didn't it.

Well, I'll be responding to this question at 6 AM my time because that fucking trash drug meth has kept me fucking up allllllllll niiiiiiight looooong! No surprise to those familiar with it, I'm sure. :X So, with two Pop Tarts in me, a glass of cool aid and two hydros to try and bring me back to the reality I'm both familiar with and can appreciate, I now await. :p

When will this shit buzz ever end anyway? For the love of God I just want my old brain back! 8o I once read a quote from a proud meth user in regards to the addiction capabilities of meth stating, "try me once and I might let you go, try me twice and I'll own your soul". Well let me add the third time for ya'. Try me three times and I'll flush the rest of your fuckin' trailor park ass down the fuckin' toilet! ;) Hey, the only positive way to look at this now, after tossing and turning all night long without ANY sleep at all, is to go ahead and let it rub itself in real good on me, never let me forget just how awful it was, and to allow me to make arrangements for it's immediate disposal and thus, it's final demise in the life of good ole Le Junk. :p

Scream, the best I can do for you is to tell you my address and then let you know when the trash goes out! ;) I really couldn't think of anything more appropriate other than the toilet, so there is a chance for ya'. If your close to Indy, let me know okay.........

I always used to joke around about meth saying "yeah, if you wanna be up for three days". Well, knock down two so far. Gooooood times, good times! :p

gonna clean the house now, Le Junk 8o

Yeeeeees it did! :) :D =D Personally, I think any drug that relies on seretonin to acheive it's high will not work on me anymore. I think those 3000 + hits of ecstasy I've hammered down back to back to back over my 23 + year run with drugs has taken it's toll on my seretonin block. Like I said previously, I'd really hate to see what an MRI of my brain would look like today. In fact, it would probably bring me to tears......seriously. :(

Le Junk :\

What relies on serotonin? Amphetamines??? Actually, they are mainly dopaminergic and noradrenargic and affect serotonergic pathways only slightly. Also, the issue is not the neurotransmiter depletion, it is receptor downregulation. MDMA affect every aspect of one's brain, not just serotonergic pathways, you are taking an extremely narrow view of your situation. How about years of cocaine abuse? What do you think that did to you? I was under the assumption that you only abused coke, not ecstasy. It looks like You have literally fried your brain, Junk. Amphetamines can be extremely fun in a HEALTHY brain. However, said brain would not remain so healthy if you ABUSE said amphetamines. If you really want some sound advice, figure out what's wrong with your brain exactly, as much as you can. Have your doc run various tests, do extensive research yourself, then proceed from that point. Perhaps you have ADHD, however that is not the entire picture here, extensive drug abuse has permanently altered the state of your brain, that must be taken into account. Just treating ADHD at this point is not sufficient, the variables have obviously changed, there is a significant damage present and it must NOT be minimized or dismissed. Months or years of abstinence will only partially repair that damage if at all. So, perhaps had you start taking Desoxyn as prescribed for your ADHD prior to your drug debauchery, your reaction could have been completely different and you would probably enjoy its euphoria as most people do. It is obvious that you are still trying to catch a buzz and learned little from the decades of subjecting your poor brain to such abuse.
 
Hey there are people with narcolepsy who take 80-100mg of methamphetamine/day for decades (that's probably like what, an 8 ball of street meth a week?) and they're not showing any clinically significant deterioration. I dont think it's the drug i think it's the way it's used.
 
^yes^ there are, when not abused@needed Meth/Amphetamine meds can safely be taken for years.

I coresponded with a guy, 63yo with sever Narcolepsy who takes 20mgs Desoxyn 4x a day+600mgs Provigal, he has been taking Amps/Ritalin-mostly Desoxyn since being diagnosed in 1957@is not a burnt out drug person, nor does he get depressed when he dosn't take them-he simply sleeps alot, he has worked since he was 18. He found 4-5, 15mg SR Desoxyns in the morning (discontinued~2001, $5.77 ech!) allowed him to be the most functional all day-he even has some left which he takes for special needs situations. His dose of Ritalin used to be 60-80mgs, 3-4x daily.

Thanks dude, i wish i was:(

You may have better luck with Dexedrine, it may be more alerting, i was scripted it after seeing a Psych my PC wanted me to see, and when he scrited me Dex, my PC freaked, and quickly had a scrit for Methylphenidate waiting for me.

Yes, but do they still get euphoric from it? I doubt it. They still get the therapeutic effect but they don't get any high to speak of.

Regarding tolerance, I've always wondered about the age factor. I would like to know whether someone can still get really high from stimulants over, say, 40. Many faculties go down after a certain age, the faculty to get high on drugs could be one of them, regardless of abuse. Could there be a menopause for drugs?

Are we refering to Le Junk as possibly being drug menopausal now? I am 42 you know? Just more good news for the now apparent, grandpa Le Junk. :(

just getting worse and worse, Le Junk :\

I was as much speaking for myself, being 47!

Aren't we blaming the quality of coke when we should be blaming the passage of time in life? Juventud, divino tesoro ...

Well I definately feel better that your 47! ;) And don't worry, it's not us, it's the drugs. I personally know people in their 60's who do coke and MDMA on a regular basis with nothing but positive results. The quality has gone waaaaay down with coke, that's a given, but the fact that I've personally abused these drugs with such ignorance is the reason for my own demise. Oh well, no better time to quit than now, right? :\

Le Junk :)

P.S. Oh yeah, still up from last nights good time................:p
 
"Normally the brain's irreplaceable complement of 30-40 thousand odd dopaminergic cells tends to die off at around 13% per decade in adult life. Their death diminishes the quality and intensity of experience. It also saps what in more ontologically innocent times might have been called one's life-force. Eighty percent loss of dopamine neurons results in Parkinson's disease, often prefigured by depression."

Age is most certainly a MAJOR factor. Natural dopaminergic deterioration with aging would indubidably cause a pronounced diminished euphoria derived from ANY drug, especially something as highly dopaminergic as the amphetamines, even in the drug naive elderly, if there is such a thing! 8o

And this would go a long way - apart from people's ubiquitous hypocrisy - towards explaining why the middle-aged and the elderly are generally against the liberalization of drugs. Not being able to enjoy drugs (any more) to any satisfying extent, they reject them for themselves and others. Another thing it would explain is why individual drug careers rarely extend long into the fourties. To put it jokingly: Le Junk starting to get menopausal at 42 and myself well beyond menopause at 47 (not even able to get high on 85%-grade coke in Peru).

One morality to be drawn is that drugs, like so many things in life, should be enjoyed while young. The assumption that drugs are especially deleterious in young people may be just another misconception or another lie. Nothing that provides pleasure can be bad for the young. Slippery philosophical slope ..
