So my friend has been using for a while,shes not addicted,which is strange because the person who taught her how to use meth warned her a bunch about how addicting it is,and they are addicted themselves.But she can go on without,no cravings,she could live without it no problem. But she doesnt know much about how much is to much. Normally she smokes about 2 bowls in one day possibly more. Is that bad? The stuff she smokes is mostly clear,decent size crystals. She will share a bowl with her significant other,they started at one pm and smoked up till 11 pm, it was two decent sized bowls maybe? Shes not to sure,but shes wondering if she could smoke more or if maybe shes had to much. She feels fine,heart rate normal,etc so I have a few questions,how much is to much for infrequent users who don't seem to be effected by it to much,and could someone overdose without a rise in heart rate? I am pretty uneducated about this sort of thing,so could someone help me out? Possibly message me about bowl sizes or answer any pathetically stupid questions I have? If anyone answers please be patient with me,and understand that I know almost nothing about this drug and I am just trying to educate myself so that my friend wont do something she may regret.
 
Your, excuse me, I mean "her" body will tell her when she's had too much. Smoking is a great way to consume drugs you aren't entirely familiar with because they kick in so fast and you know where you're at. If you feel like you wanna get higher take another hit. Repeat as needed. If your heart is racing and your soaking wet with sweat I'd probably put down the piz.
 
I heard that you can smoke a whole bowl and feel fine but then like 10 mins later turns out you overdosed,but im not sure if thats true,thanks for answering, btw can you overdose on meth without a rapid heart rate??? And how big is a normal bowl that someone you know would smoke? Just a pinch? Sorry for all the questions,my friend is currently on her third bowl with her significant other and is feeling fine besides some chest pains,but its not around the heart and she gets them when not smoking too
 
A methamphetamine overdose may be acute (sudden) or chronic (long-term).

  • An acute methamphetamine overdose occurs when someone accidentally or intentionally takes this drug and has side effects, which can be life-threatening.
  • A chronic methamphetamine overdose refers to the health effects seen in someone who uses the drug on a regular basis.

Ditto to BlindMelon, but I will add I believe smoking + meth = one of the most compulsive ways to take it.

From my understanding it's very hard to overdose (acute that is) from smoking this shit, but it's quite easy to overdo it - I've smoked and smoked and then stood up and time had disappeared and I was much higher than I needed to be. An overdose is when you need to get in touch with medical personnel. Do your research BEFORE taking anything. Amounts will depend on a person's tolerance, the purity of the shit, and plenty of other factors. You can always smoke more later; put it down and go find something else to do.

Chest pains are bad. Please be careful with this! I used to think I wasn't addicted, but I'm not so sure anymore - it'll sneak up on you, it's how it works.
 
Another stupid question, my friend was just taking a hit,she and her significant other are currently on their third bowl since 1 pm yesterday,but this time,when she went to reload she got some of the powdered stuff instead of the big crystals,something (maybe) strange happened. So she took her hit,and put it on the cloth to cool and recrystallize,she realized there was still a bit of smoke in the pipe,so she brought it back up to take the rest,well,she got the rest and more then what she asked for. This liquid came out and touched her tongue,it wasnt hot,it didnt hurt,but she thinks it had a bit of the consistency of oil,watery thin oil,and it barely tasted like anything,but she thought she tasted possibly sunflower something or another,or something of that nature,she immediately wiped her tongue off on the rag,which atm smelled like what she was tasting,she was wondering what it was,because this never happened before and it startled her,shes only been smoking a month+ does anybody know what happened? When it was recrystallized it was tinted brown,but shes unsure whether its from her significant other burning it a bit,or if its something its cut with,her other half isnt that good at lighting etc has anyone else experienced this before? She thought it might be something wrong with the meth so she lit it again,took in the smoke,left a little bit inside the pipe,blew it out so she could see clearly and rolled the pipe around while watching the stuff recrystallize,she realized it took just a little bit longer then it had before for it to harden,and once again,it is slightly brown. Maybe shes just never paid attention closely before,once again,so sorry for these dumb questions,but its not like she can go to anyone and ask away,the girl who taught her friend isnt all that knowledgeable about it herself
 
All depends on tolerance. I've heard anecdotes of people injecting 5g over the course of a day with high tolerance.

I personally keep it to <50mg a day oral only and use sparingly, but I'm after the productivity and not the high.

It is important to remember high dose use is quite neurotoxic.
 
Wow your "friend" sure tells you alot about her habit huh? Isn't this about as bad as SWIMMING?
 
We all know damn well im referring to myself :0 id rather have some answers to my stupid questions lol
 
You must remember that majority of people will not have pure methamp. it is going to be cut however much or little... Down where I live depending where you look, half a gram is equal to a few hits of clean good shard.

People who are consuming a few grams a day, tolerance or not I would put my bottom dollar it is cut to some extent.

Drug ignorance... Neurotoxicity oh I dont doubt it about amphetamines, but you must keep in mind that neurotoxic regimes you see in studies are done with pharm grade meth, not you stomped on street grade shit
