meth comedown and withdrawal

[Drayen]

phew, u guys must be pretty tired of me now. this must be my forth post in 2 days ;p
well anyways can someone out there tell me what the comedown feels like and what it feels like to go through withdrawal.
the first time i tried it was last night and i had a very little bit about 3h ago. i've never been addicted or had withdrawals with ANY drug before so i can't really place the feeling.
spanx for any help.
p.s. i've noticed that the smoke recrystalizes on the sides of the pipe. when you hold it in your mouth does it recrystalize inside your mouth then? if so, which would transfer the chemicals faster into your bloodstream if u let it recrystalize in your mouth or diffuse through your lungs?

At first the meth comedown can be fairly tough for some people. You will suffer possible bodyaches, as well as feel mentaly and phisically drained. As your body learns to deal with meth these effects generally decrease. As for your second question...When you "smoke" meth its not really *burning* it. Much like you heat water and water boils and evaporates the same chemical process is what is happening to the meth. The molecules speed up and become less dense and are able to travel through the air. When they cool down they become dense again and solidify on whatever object they are on. The chemical composition of the drug is still the same. Methamphetamine is water soluable and as long as your mouth has saliva in it, the resolidified vapor would disolve in your saliva and eventually make its way in and out of your body. The same thing happens in your lungs, your lungs are quite moist and the theory of meth crystalizing in your lungs is a urban legend. However, the chemical vapor is quite hard on your lungs and chronic meth smoking does cause severe enough damage for you to encounter complications, that may require you to be even hospitalized.

Meth is seriously psychologically addictive, in my opinion you should try tapering down and maybe switch to parachuting it if on top of the cravings you feel like you have no energy when you don't use. When you assume meth orally it doesn't give you a rush like you get when smoking but it will provide a steady energy level for quite a long period of time. When I experience a shitty come down (like after a few days binge) I rely on benzos, but I try to do it only when absolutely necessary.

The worst part of the comedown for me is finally becoming tired enough to need to sleep, but as you sit or lie down having your whole body sudednly just tense up and jerk you awake every 30 sec. or so. That really sucks. Other than that I just get really super bummed, evil and cynical for awhile.

umm, ive only done meth twice, the first time not enough, but i tweaked nicely the second time. when i finally let myself fall asleep on sunday night after tweaking all day saturday, i woke up monday morning feeling like SHIT in no way ever before experienced. i was so GODDAMNED tired, my body felt so incredibly shitty, i called in sick to work and slept all day. i had to get up before my parents came home from work so they wouldnt think i was fucked up, but after dinner i went back to bed. after being up for so long, i just wanted to sleep. no withdrawl for me, but then again, i havent done it enough. youll probably think about it though and wish you had some...mmm, yum!

First, meth doesn't crystalize in your mouth or lungs - thats a myth, you can hold the hit as long as you like...
As for the withdrawal, you really gotta get some momentum with it before you will be welcoming death... you can tweak your balls off all weekend, and only be a little tired or worn out... addiction doesn't set in for awhile, so don't worry...
But one you're hooked, it can be nasty to not have it... horrible pains, cravings, etc...

I quit my gram and a half a week habit cold turkey. I haven't had any for two weeks now, and I feel fine. The addiction is all in your head.

See, brother Lingo speakuth the truth... his mind is not clouded with dellusions of mythical creatures such as "Allah" or "Mohamed"... he prays to a REAL GOD and not some make up nutty God that demands you pray toward this magical island called Mecca 47 times a day, and wear these goofy dots on your head, lets not forget the dots!
I forgot the point of this...

worst part of the comedown for me is when i've been up for 2 or 3 days and really need to eat or drink something but can't because it seems so nasty. I usually am a binger, once every month or so i'll go out with a couple friends, smoke a buttload and then not do it for a long time. i haven't done it in a couple months though because just thinking about how sick my stomach feels the day after, makes me yak

Um, how hard is it to eat d00d? You shouldn't be using the drug if you can't even fight the urge to go without food... yeah, after a weekend of tweaking the prospect of a nice, fat steak dinner might not shine your cock, but you shouldn't have a problem getting a meal of some sort down...

I've allways found that putting a key sized bump or so in some coffee can really help the comedown...
