When someone says or writes "Meth", what do you assume they mean? Obviously context plays a part too, but if someone was to say:
"I've only tried mdma and meth"
do you presume they actually mean mephedrone (i've definitely heard some people call 4-mmc meth), or are they talking about methylone or methamphetamines?

Thanks
 
In the UK they generally mean mephedrone or methadone. Elsewhere in the world it would almost certainly mean methamphetamine. People should make it clear in their post though cos drug slang varies so much around the world.
 
I've never heard the term meth used to refer to anything other then methamphetamine in the US, Canada and Mexico. I've never been to Europe (or anywhere other then North America) but I've heard that methamphetamine is quite rare in Europe.
 
Never heard anyone say meph in the uk either irl, everyone calls it mcat round here. Probably varies in other parts though. Online meph is a common term for mephedrone, and meth means methamp.
 
"Meth" should mean methamphetamine and nothing else. Using "meth" to talk about methadone is counterproductive and really retarded. Well, imHo (yes, in my humble opinion).
 
Just to add to the potential for confusion, methylone is also sometimes abbreviated to "meth" in the UK. Using a drug's full name would be a Good Thing for all concerned to avoid any possible confusion. Some people are lazy fucks though and seemingly can't be arsed to use the extra calorie it might take to type the extra coupla letters :\
 
I don't think people refer mephedrone as "meth". It's usually called "meph".

However there's also methedrone which I've noticed to been referred as "meth".

I can see someone easily getting mixed up with these two and it's no wonder since they both feel very similar to each other.

Mephedrone = 4MMCat, Methedrone = 4MeoMCat
 
Yeah the naming of cathinones almost seems designed to confuse. Here meth
means methamphetamine and know one has even heard of any of the others.

Well, methadone but that would be unlikely confused with tweak.

They definitely do here - both meph and meth (and a host of other ridiculous names) are widely used. But those same people usually also don't know that mephedrone and methedrone are different drugs (the latter has never been widely available here but even vendors used the names interchangeably 8)).
 
I've never heard of mephedrone as "meth". I have heard of "meth" being used to describe both methamphetamine (primarily) and methylone (in very rare cases and then the context usually gives away the substance in question). Mephedrone is either mmcat or meph.
When someone just plain old says "meth", I think methamphetamine.
 
Thanks for all the replies, i too would think that meth means nothing other than methamphetamine. But i definitely hear/read people talking/writing about meth meaning 4-mmc.
 
I've only heard meth in reference to methamphetamine. The only time I've heard it referring to something else is on bluelight - for methadone (and in posts to follow...they are bombarded with questions about WHY they don't just write 'methadone' as meth = methamphetamine. ha).
-No one here talks about mephedrone at all, so that is not an issue.
 
Using the word "meth" in reference to anything other than methamphetamine is blasphemy. Blasphemy I tell you! :p
 
agree, methadone here in manchester,england is allways refered to as METH or GREEN never heard it called anything else. methamphetamine is allmost unheard of in the U.K., i for one know no one who's tried it. WIZZ is the name of "common garden variety" amphet over here
