too much dex?

[keroppi1]

how much is too much dexadriene to take at once or in a day? i had the 15mg (i think) orange and black ones and today i took 4 at once then like 2 hours later i took the other 4 cause it felt like the first ones were wearing off. is that too much? are there any bad side effects i should be careful of? also, are these addicting? i was going to save the last 4, but couldnt resist the urge to take them. one day a while back i popped one every hour for like 10 hours, is that dangerous? i like how these make me feel when they kick in, and how they kill my appetite. so if i like these is there a chance i might like meth too? thanks for n e answers, and sorry for so many ?'s. xoxo :D

how much is too much dexadriene to take at once or in a day?
Opinion varies. I would say you are taking 'too much' if you are experiencing bad side effects, or being high is interfering with your life/work. How much dexedrine you can take before you start to have problems varies from person to person. You really have to decide for yourself.

i had the 15mg (i think) orange and black ones and today i took 4 at once then like 2 hours later i took the other 4 cause it felt like the first ones were wearing off.
The 'black and orange ones' are the dexedrine SPANSULES, and they are time release, meaning that they are specially forumalated to slowly release the dextroamphetamine over 6-8 hours or so. It is therefore a little strange that you find the high wearing off so quickly. I will also add the 4 15 mg spansules at once is a rather high dose! Not SUPER high, but still high, and especially for a beginner with no tolerance...

are there any bad side effects i should be careful of?
Yes. Watch out for any cardiovascular effects/problems -- like a pounding heart, trouble breathing/feeling out of breath, tight chest/anxiety. Also beware of psychological problems like anxiety, and paranoia, both very common with amphetamine use. Make sure to drink a glass of water an hour, to keep well hydrated (as amphetamines are very dehydrating). Also, I wouldn't take so many dexedrine every day; you will develop a tolerance, and furthermore, you need to keep getting sleep, eating well, and taking care of yourself -- and people tend to forget about these things when they are using amphetamines.

also, are these addicting?
Amphetamines arent very physically addictive, but it is very easy to become dependant on them and psychological addiction is very common. So yes, be careful, and don't do too much too often if you don't want to become an addict.

i was going to save the last 4, but couldnt resist the urge to take them. one day a while back i popped one every hour for like 10 hours, is that dangerous?
I find this slightly disturbing. IMO it is not a good sign that you couldn't 'resist' taking the leftover dexedrines. I would also say that popping a 15 mg dexedrine every hour for 10 hours (= 150 mg dexedrine total) is a bit excessive, especially for a new user. It's still unlikely that you would OD at that dosage, especially if you were taking the drug orally. I would slow down a bit though if I were you -- even if you don't give a fuck about your health, if you continue taking dexedrine at this rate your tolerance will build up very quickly!

i like how these make me feel when they kick in, and how they kill my appetite. so if i like these is there a chance i might like meth too?
Yup, amphetamines are euphoric...that's why people like 'em and abuse 'em. The appetite suppression is of course one of the effects, and also considered desirable by many..of course this can be problematic if you are using amphetamines so much that you cease to eat normally, and thus you become deficient in nutrients/calories...
If you like dexedrine (dextroamphetamine), then you will certainly like meth. Meth is stronger and more euphoric. However, as you seem to have gone a little nuts with your first experience with dexedrine, I urge you to be cautious with your meth use if you try it, because meth is even more psychologically addictive. Just be careful and safe, okay?

Wow! You're experience was synonymous w/mine about 6 months ago.
fairnymph: excellent post!!! this is what I wanted to know when I was hardcore into dexies.
I can speak from experience. I've probably done over 300 dexies in my life. WATCH OUT!!! Sure they are fun, but I've went through a lot with this addiction. Everyday use is not healthy. No sleep, food, sense of reality. I went to detox because of it. I aquired a yeast infection in my throat and that HURTS(I'm male by the way) . Also, I used to weigh 250lbs an now I weigh 155. I never gained the weight back either, looking like an anorexic.
In the end, it isn't worth it. The hardest thing to do is resist wanting to take more and more and more because the feelings won't last forever. After a while your brain will wear out and have no energy supply. Amphetamines use up stored resourses/chemicals, they don't magically produce energy and euphoria, and once that's gone you suffer for a long time. So, please take it easy.

With years of dexiamphetamine use and abuse I can say now with some confidence that it has substantially affected my memory recall ability, amoung other things. Now, I know everyone's brain is different, but I'm quite sure that ampetamines generally damage dopamine producing neurons by raising the levels of production until the cells burn out. My sleeping patterns, appetite and memory have suffered from thism, and continue to do so. But i still use it because it affords me as much good as it does bad. It's a kinda of balance that I'm waiting for to become unequal....
life without drugs can be just as fun...

Dexies can be alot of fun, but they can be extremely dangerous, esp. if you have heart trouble or the such... when you took that much dex did you exp any trembling or shaking... i use to get that alot when i'd eat like 4 to 10 15mg pills a day... and it can be addictive in that you have to eat more and more just to keep that feeling of upness... like anything, you gotta be responsible...
