I could really use some serious help

[Adella_Anesthetic]

ok soo the first time I did meth was about 7 months ago and I smoked it almost constantly for three days until I came down and didnt do it again until about a month ago and I smoked it every 30 minutes for about 10 hours I didnt smoke a whole lot but enough to get me high to the point of being a magiver. well I stayed up all night (of course). towards morning I started to have trouble breathing and I had to keep taking really deep breaths but it felt like my lungs couldnt be completely filled with oxygen. after a little while of doing this my hands and legs and also lips were starting to feel tingly like pins and needles so I decided fuck this im going to try and sleep or something. I stood up and the breathing and tinglyness continued and when I stood up I became pretty light headed so I got to my bed as fast as I could and laid down. while focusing on trying to breath right my boyfriend and friend came in the room to see if I was alright and I told them what was going on. my friend was going to tell his mom but I told him not to than I started to kind of pass out and my boyfriend noticed that my lips and eye lids were purple. also my hands started to close and make really tight fists and I could barely open them and if I did they would close again.
my friends mom decided it was a panic attack considering that I have anxiety offten but no medication. I had never had a panic attack before.
she knew I hadnt eaten anything so she made me eat and gave me some sort of pill to help with my muscles.
it eventually all stopped and I was ok.
now every time I do meth for more than 2 days I have almost the same symptoms.
It freaks me out and worries me and I really want to know why it happens and how I can make it so I can breath easily right away.
If you've ever experienced this or no someone who has or if you know how to fix it please let me know.

oh and yes I know drugs are bad and its probably because of the drugs that this happens, I dont need a lecture about drug use. but I would still like information about it.

hopefully you'll get some expert answers here, but it sounds like the drug and you just don't mix. (that's also some pretty heavy binges dude)

Please try not to do meth for 2 days... but given that you don't want lectures...

Do you eat properly while on meth? It could be that you're iron deficient (you need iron to make use of oxygen).

Maybe there's something in the cut that's effecting you when smoked - have you tried eating/drinking it instead?

Sounds like it could be crappy meth. If it's not "cooked" properly then you may be getting lots of "undesired" chemicals. Ephedrine and Pseudo can cause massive panic attacks. If not processed correctly or cleaned in some way, there is a menagerie of things you may be consuming.
I have had the same experience many times over. I do have panic attacks constantly. I am an ex-meth cook and ex-addict. The well cooked and cleaned meth never gave me a panic attack. The dirty or rushed batches were terrible as i would almost always have them. Pay attention to the color, and how it looks when it burns on foil. The better stuff will have less or no "snowflake" looking structures when it cracks back(immediately hardens). The good stuff burns clean and looks smooth...little or no pretty crystalline designs when it hardens. If possible run far far away from Meth as you would a monster as a child. Meth is a real life Monster that doesn't go away when you turn on the light.
If you choose to continue, always burn at least a spot of it before you bang(please don't) or snort it, just to judge it's purity and meth content vs. unprocessed ephedrine.
Stay safe and always stop to eat drink and rest.

my advice is avoid taking meth, especially multiple days in a row. or at least cut your dosing back, it sounds like you're using way too much that you can handle.

good advice is to also keep hydrated the whole time you're using, and this doesn't mean alcohol. drink water and powerade type drinks that replenish your electrolytes, but don'y go crazy on them. try and snack on fruits like bananas, apples, oranges and watermelon to help hydrate and replenish vitamins too. try and eat some proper food if you can, just light meals of pasta for example. also light snacks on vegetables like pumpkin, tomato (its a fruit i know), cauliflower and broccoli are great too.

one of the biggest problems with people abusing meth is neglecting their hunger and hydration.

I wouldn't do meth anymore... it *might* have been a panic attack but it could have been something worse, but unfortunatly panic attacks mask other serious medical conditions. Good luck and stay safe.

Am I missing something? These are classic symptoms of peripheral vasoconstriction. You took too much or you had a dodgy synth. Correct me if I'm wrong, I may just be being thick.
