So I started smoking meth again about 3 days ago,I only take 2 hits and then I feel some shortness of breath it only last about 1 hr then I go back to my normal breathing, is this normal it's been a long time
Thanks
 
Normal probably not. But your smoking meth:) I know i get shortness of breath and lung aches after smoking for a few days. Does it affect you in a bad way? like not being able to walk or having to sit down to catch your breath? OR!! Have you slept my friend??
 
Yea I sleep every day about 5 hrs after I get out of work, I check my oxygen saturation and it's 100 witch is good but I feel like I'm not getting enough air and my chest feels alil compressd
 
I know with me the smoke alone irritates my lungs sometimes and causes them to feel tight for a few minutes. If it happens a lot or starts to bother me I either stop doing/smoking for awhile or if i'm deadest on doing it, I find another way to ingest the drug.

If your oxygen is 100%, perhaps you are having anxiety. I get shortness of breath when I am having a panic attack even when my oxygen is at 100%. But it could be worse than anxiety as well.. It's hard to tell. I hope everything is okay. Maybe a benzo would help you out.
 
It could be anxiety cuz when I smoked it I was on my break when I came back my boss was there so I was tryng so hard to be calm and not bounce all over the place I was also trying to slow down my resperations. So my boss left the office so I did a line and I feel good no chest pain or sortness of breath
 
I would stop smoking methamphetamine now. If you continue to have shortness of breath, seek medical attention ASAP. We're not doctors and can't tell you if you're okay or not. Medical advice is recommended.

If you're having a panic attack, a benzo would certainly work. It's probably because you've been using a strong stimulant (methamphetamine) and not getting sleep. I seriously recommend stopping the meth and getting some rest.
 
Yeah I agree with neighborhoodthreat you should stop smoking methamphetamines now. I once knew this chick her lungs got so fucked up from smoking heroin she had to be hooked up to a machine for certain parts of the day.... Don't go down that road if you can stop ahead of time because I'm telling you it will get worse before you know it.
 
I get shortness of breath, too. However, I am an IV user. Sometimes I can't get enough air in my lungs to walk up a few stairs! In MY own opinion it's normal, well normal for using meth anyway, and I do agree it could have a bit to do with anxiety as well. If get a crap bag, it will give me a panic attack and it's hard to breathe. I feel like I just can't get enough air. Then I started messing up my breathing, which ends up being worse for me! Thankfully I've learned to control the attacks, so they don't go into full force. But yeah, sleep! When I'm up for a couple days it's defiantly worse! Just take it one slow breath at a time and figure out of it's worth it to you.. Good luck!
