i was just wondering why meth causes me to get all these aches and pains? it feels like every joint in my body's aged a few hundred years; the bones in my face hurt as if i've been clenching my jaw for days, but as far as i can tell i'm not.

my wrists also burn like a motherfucker - it feels kind of like acid, which sometimes allows my passive or dormant injuries to be more pronounced (i think i have some form of carpal tunnel which i can really feel when i'm on cid/speed)

i guess what i'm basically hoping to hear is that this isn't actually my body disintegrating, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was (not that i do much meth, maybe a point or two a week)
 
Because it causes CNS stimulation, so your muscles are tense. You are also probably sitting/moving rigidly (due to the physical stimulation of meth), and probably aren't stretching enough to counteract this.
 
Hey meth is bad for you. O yea what he said ^^ but yea meth is one nasty chemical, obviously those are just some signs to show for it. Loss of dopamine producing neurons is another and thats permanent.
 
yeah, i don't really make frequent use of meth. last week i stayed up for 3 days on the stuff, but even then, i managed to do that by only smoking two or three points. i'm trying to steer clear of any permanent damage.
 
Whenever I am on speed It's impossible to relax my leg muscles. I'll wear myself out from just sitting in place. I tend to only realize it sporadically while I'm high, but later on I definitely feel it, the soreness you're talking about that is.
 
for me the aches arent nearly as bad as the sensitivity i get in my teeth.. i cant eat anything solid after a few days of bingeing on the shit.. just soup and bananas
Meth makes me feel like what i imagine a 90 year old feels like, with the acheing and the lethargy between doses and all..
 
Just comes with the territory. I'm lucky that my opiate tolerance is pretty low but I always try to have a few hydros or oxy for the comedown. And a benzo is nice to. Meth is alot of fun, but if ya want to dance you're gonna have to pay the piper.
