All drugs effect people differently.
I'm on high doses of a mood stabilizer and antipsychotic and can feel meth still.
Have you always felt like you were immune, or is this just a recent phenomenon?

What meds are you on? That could definately effect your ability to get high.
When you say "obsessed with the burn" are you reffering to the feeling in your chest from a good shot?

So if this started just as you started with antipsychotics, how would we know?
I'm on two of the three meds you're on, and can feel meth fine. HBU @tracedwards313
But like I said, it effects everyone differently.

@madness00 I dont take anything.
I have feeling it may be caused by something else.
OP, How much and how often do you use?

Oh man, I thought I was the only one. When I used to do meth years ago it was always insufflated and I was obsessed with the burn. It felt so good.
In fact, I loved it so much that I picked up a .2 two weekends in a row after I "quit" just to snort a little bump for the burn. Glad to know I'm not the only one.
Fuuuuck, I still remember.....snort a line, the burn hits.....light a smoke.....take a shot of gin. Soooo goooood. Quit two of those three now.

I felt like I was getting high from the burn alone, never mind the meth from which I most deffo did get high.

@Marji I can only guess, how many times have you used meth, ever?
Is quality an issue?
There are to many variables I dont know about to narrow it down. But I have never met or heard of anyone who is naturally immune to meth.
Meth causing a lackluster high is usually due to meds, quality, tolerance or abuse of other drugs.

Is must be my meds. They are antipsychotics. Theee of them.
ive been doing meth for around 10 years. Had clean time a couple times and periods where I was caught up into other drugs. Past two years has been everyday. I’d say about a 50-100 bag a day.

At the very least marji, you are om some pretty serious antipsychotic drugs. High-doses of antipsychotics like Chlorpromazine (Thorazine) classically have been used to abort mania and psychosis common in stimulant overdose.
Secondly, anything is possible. I've heard experiences like youra described before, but it is definitely uncommon to be "immune" to the effects of a drug like Methamphetamine.

That sounds like you just have built a crazy high tolerance. You can only use so much meth before it stops effecting you.

Someone was explaining to me in another thread that meth has effects via two neurotransmitters: norepinephrine (responsible for stimulation) and dopamine (responsible for euphoria). Some anti-psychotics (Abilify in my case) seem to impact the dopamine system meaning no euphoria from meth while still allowing it to stimulate you (and allow pro-sexual effects). But this does not result in feeling of immunity - you still know you’ve taken it and feel energised and have crashes afterwards. I don’t know if the OP’s cocktail of drugs impacts norepinephrine as well as dopamine but I’d say that’s what is killing the euphoria.
What you're describing is pretty typical. This phenomenon occurs with essentially all substances that I know of. People become tolerant to the effects and the experience undoubtedly is nothing like it was when you first started using. Most Opioid addicts will tell you that they no longer "get high"; they only use to keep withdrawal at bay. To that end, the experience of enduring severe withdrawal and then ending it can be a transcendent experience in its own unique way.
