It depends what you mean by "speed". Here in the UK it is racemic amphetamine sulphate mainly, very heavily cut (usually with glucose) - so is essentially fairly similar to Adderall just a lot dirtier. Purity varies hugely so you have to just have a tiny bit then titrate up according to response.. insufflated has a higher bioavailability but it is often quite damp/paste-like so bombing (parachuting) it is easiest.
If you are an anxious person then speed could well exacerbate it - in low doses it can give you more confidence but anxiety/paranoia can definitely set in. If you are sensitive to stims then be very cautious - start with a tiny bit and see how you go. Ideally it might be best to test it out before your big night, incase you react badly - anxiety can be exacerbated hugely by being in a crowded place and if you have anxiety anyway, are sensitive to stims and don't know how you will react to speed then this could be a recipe for disaster.
Speed can last a long time and it can be easy to overdo it too so another reason to start low and go slow!
What adverse reaction did you have to MDMA?
Hey man, thanks for the response. I totally see what you are saying.
I was discussing MDMA with an insightful user on here earlier, so I will post my description here:
- June 25, 2009: I rolled 3 times in 4 days with strong MDMA pills all of the same batch. The first time (1 pill) was great and went fine. 2 days later I rolled again (1 pill) and had a scary experience during the peak. I was enjoying myself on a couch when it started getting too intense. I started feeling that something bad was happening physically in my brain. My hearing began to distort, I was getting real sweaty and had a daunting feeling that I was about to faint and die. In a panic, I found a bouncer told him I wasn't feeling well. However, within 30 seconds I started feeling better and went back inside to get some water. The next day I rolled AGAIN (about 2.5 pills) and aside from having a super high tolerance, everything went fine with the slight exception of getting a near panic attack shortly after the come up. That panic attack feeling only lasted about 10-20 seconds and wasn't like the previous night's experience.
- October 2009: I snorted ~70mg of MDMA crystal that had been regent tested. After the come up I began to feel extremely uneasy as if a panic attack was coming but that went away after about 20 seconds or so. I can't say I enjoyed the roll but I think that's because I snorted it.
- July 2010: I swallowed crystal MDMA that had been regent tested and weighed out about to ~110-120 mg. As the first effects started to kick in, I began feeling an internal feeling of worry. At first it was small and I tried to distract myself by dancing. But the feeling kept growing more powerful and within a minute or two I started to really panic. I felt my heart race and temperature rise, and above all I felt like I was in trouble and needed medical help. So I went to the medic inside the dance club and they checked my temp, heart rate, and blood pressure- all of which were high. Now I don't know if they were higher than they normally would be while on MDMA, but they felt like they were. I think I was a degree or two below a fever (fevers are dangerous while on E). After resting for ~ 10-15 minutes I started to feel better. The panic feeling did come back but only for about 30 seconds.
^ that's why I decided to take a break from MDMA for at least another 6 months to a year.
