I’ve been wondering this for a while and this is the place to ask...
Suppose a person took regular 10mg doses of an amphetamine. And suppose you had some way of knowing that if she, based on her personal physiology would overdose at a dose of 40mg, then that person could double their dose to 20 mg and be fine.
Now suppose this same person 6 months later had developed a pretty good tolerance and their regular dose was now 30 mg. If they were to double their dose it would be 60mg. Would they be likely to overdose because they went above their body’s natural overdose point of 40mg? Or would their tolerance have put their over dose level up somewhere higher as is increased with her tolerance?
So I’m basically trying to figure out if my gradual increasing doses will be dangerous as long as I stick close to my “normal” levels at the time I take them. Or, does increasing doses always involve some added risk?
No perfect answer and no guarantees, just looking for any insight into this.
