Smell like shit after smoking meth

[PANHEAD359]

Swim can be clean for two years, and the second swim takes a hit off the meth pipe, swim smells like shit, i mean really smells like shit, so bad people can smell it next door. It does'nt matter if its iv or smoked or eaten. And the thing is swim has known many a meth user, like 300 or more and is the only one who has this problem, can some one explain why this happens to just swim

We don't use SWIM here. It doesn't offer you any legal protection and makes your post hard to read.

And its actually pretty common for amphetamines, especially methamphetamine, to cause people to smell bad.

Maybe you shit your pants? lol... I am thinking that it might be a combo of things including that the cut in your meth makes you smell ratchet..

Body odor, or B.O., is a perceived unpleasant smell our bodies can give off when bacteria that live on the skin break down sweat into acids - some say it is the smell of bacteria growing on the body, but it really is the result of bacteria breaking down protein into certain acids. Sweat itself is virtually odorless to humans; it is the rapid multiplication of bacteria in the presence of sweat and what they do (break sweat down into acids) that eventually causes the unpleasant smell. The smell is perceived as unpleasant, many believe, because most of us have been brought up to dislike it. Body odor is most likely to occur in our feet, groin, armpits, genitals, pubic hair and other hair, belly button, anus, behind the ears, and to some (lesser) extent on the rest of our skin.

Body odor can have a nice and specific smell to the individual, and can be used - especially by dogs and other animals - to identify people. Each person's unique body odor can be influenced by diet, gender, health, and ESPECIALLY BY THE DRUGS THEY TAKE. For example, eating certain foods such as red meat, processed and junk foods, garlic, ect.. causes a rank BO . In addition, a diet that is too fibrous/a dieat with too little fiber, eating too much carbs, and ingesting excess animal products (dairy) will create a fowl smell.

Two types of acid are commonly present when there is body odor:
Propionic acid (propanoic acid) is commonly found in sweat - propionibacteria break amino acids down into propionic acid. Propionibacteria live in the ducts of the sebaceous glands of adult and adolescent humans. Some people may identify a vinegar-like smell with propionic acid, because it is similar to acetic acid, which gives vinegar its sour taste and pungent smell. Isovaleric acid (3-methyl butanoic acid) is another source of body odor as a result of actions of the bacteria Staphylococcus epidermidis, which are also present in several strong cheese types. Meth manufacturers that utilize pseudoephidrine often synth with glacial acetic acid.

Some home remedies:
try wearing some cologne/perfume, taking showers ( dont forget to use soap ), deodorant, brushing your teeth, shave your armpits/keep them clean ect...

well since I have experience (over 20 years) with the making process and doing it, clean now, there is only one way to get rid of the smell. QUIT!!! I am not trying to be an advocate, but that is the only way the smell will go away. The problem is his ketone levels are too low to keep his liver functioning properly. The chemical reactions with his body is a big problem. It does not matter how much you shower, put on deodorant, brush your teeth, your body has to detoxify itself. and this could be several hours to several days or weeks. I dealt with the same problem with myself and others. some would have such an odor it actually burned peoples noses, eyes and it smelled like burning flesh. And this is worse for the smokers. I went to the doctor during one of these "smell episode's" and my ketone level was so low, the doctor asked me how I was setting on his table and not dead. you can hydrate your body, which is a good idea anyway, but that will not help. It is the chemical's reacting. if your friend is not ready to quit, here is a few tips, eat high calorie food, and eat at least every hour or two, even if you don't want to. drink lots of water, he should be drinking about a gallon of water, take showers. and the type of meth that he is using is also a big factor. if he is using anhydrous the smell will be sweeter but stronger. and with red phosurious (not spelled right) the smell will be more sour, but more of a smell that is less tolerable for most to handle. Also, if he feels waves of coldness, along with sweating at the same time, then it feels like his pores are tingling and you smell the odor, then he needs to eat and drink water immediately, and take a shower but remember the smell is coming from chemical reactions inside his body. It is embarrassing for him I am sure, but if this happens his best bet is to stop doing the drug at least 24 hours and eat,sleep and drink.

If the meth is pure it would not matter how it was made, the smell would be the same. Meth doesn't just have these made up leftover chemicals in it unless you got a botched synth and were ripped off. Wiki says your body eats ketones for energy during starvation mode (meth binge) because you are not eating enough. They would be higher during a binge, not lower. Low carbohydrate levels are the cause. Low levels of ketones are not an issue, high levels can give you acetone breath and ketosis but this is only seen in diabetics.

Those chemicals make me want to wear gloves all the time and no not to hide fingerprints but the nasty chemicals coming out of your skin. Dude when i was in jail and detoxing off of meth my skin turned green like a zombie.....I also had a lot of scraps and bruises from the other jail that saved me from killing myself.....Dude heed the warning. That crap is torment for your body and wll only lead you down to destructive behavior.........I'm just telling you from experience and I was a heavy meth user......I do not hang around people that do it and I'm pretty sure it's doing something bad to you if you smell like crap...That's not normal so coming here for an answer is useless because we all know if you haven't smoked meth and smell like crap then you either crapped your pants or need a shower.....If you smoke meth and then smell like crap then stop smoking meth.

In my opinion any amphetamine that I have taken either prescription or meth, they always increase body temperature and sometimes cause me or most people to sweat which can bring upon the smell. I never really thought of it much, until a few times where I have been around people who were addicted to meth, and being in their presence I would feel my eyes getting watery and my skin feeling weird, it was so odd, oh and i could strongly smell it too.

However many people using meth/amps aren't always in the best state of hygiene either. If i shower regularly when I use amps or used to, I don't really get that smell that bad and it is only a smell I can smell, but nowone else has been able to. However sometimes especially if you use amphetamines daily or "binge" usually your less likely to shower which can create a real strong odor as a combination of the amphetamine and sweat.

The smell coming out of you when you're on meth is the worst. You smell like a cat just sprayed, I agree it's horrible. During the summer I would take a shower, go outside and walk around my building while I'd smoke a cigarette. Deoderant and cologne already applied, soon as I broke a sweat the smell came right back. It's not smart to be around the ladies on that
