Stimulants How do you deal with teeth grinding?

Well I went out and got some chelated magnesium today, next time I take anything with grinding side effects I'll load up and see how it goes!

also ErgicMergic, personally I actually quite enjoy that actual clenching, it's almost like scratching a really bad itch, but my teeth have always been pretty shitty (some deficiency of something....) so I'm always really conscious about it, it's very strange to be logically telling yourself that the clenching is really bad and that you need to stop, all the while thinking how nice it is to be able to clench...
 
I can't even take adderall without my teeth clenching till it hurts, and then some...

The caustic nature of meth also contributes to meth mouth.
 
its not so much teeth grinding for me as constant mouth tics, like swallowing and rubbing my to gue against the roof of my mouth violently. but chelated magnesium will help a little bit for grinding, and generally improve the high.

Probably not significantly though, I mean, the only ROA that would have meth actually in the mouth would be vaped, or if for some reason someone sublingualed shards. I think that 90% of the oral hygiene problems related to meth come from the dry mouth and poor hygiene practices.
 
pregabalin usually works fairly well for bruxism, at least in my case.
if not, chewing gum.
 
Personally, I've never gotten teeth grinding from the stims that I've taken (various amphetamines, MPH, MDMA), even at really high doses.
 
On a side note, do you know anyone who enjoys the jaw clench? My brother's friend refuses to take Mg before events since he thinks the clenching is part of the roll (E, not MDMA). My brother also said he enjoyed the clench on a tweaky roll, he said it made him feel animalistic and primal, and it just felt right.

I enjoy the sensation of bruxism, for pretty much the same reason.

It feels like you're revving your engines.
 
Whenever I take any amphetamines, Vyvanse in particular, I have bad jaw clenching problems. Easily treatable with magnesium supplements however I like to add potassium to it too since I've read that they like to work together. Although just keep up water drinking, I've found it stops it.

Also, toothpick!
