Stimulants vaped and minor effects... what gives?

[s1l3n7]

so i decided to do some crystal last week, ended up going on a 3 day binge with no sleep or food. ive seriously read almost all the meth threads here on bl and how to smoke it properly etc etc. ended up getting a meth bong and used water the first night, and no water on other nights, switching it up a bit, and it didnt feel like it affected me too much?

the crystal that i got looked like small glass shards with some shake and it melted into a puddle then recrystallized pretty good. did the whole side to side thing and what not, packed a decent size in and tried smaller bowls as well, and basically did it all by the book. all it really made me do was get a slight feeling of euphoria for like literally 2 minutes and just made me fiend for more, and im taking in huge hits at the same time!

I ended up smoking the entire bag(about .3 or .4?) that night. I got all the negative side effects though for sure. Stayed up the whole god damn night and couldnt sleep, but the people who describe the feeling here on bl is completely different from what i experienced... so i decided to try again thru the same connect and the same thing happened for 3 days basically. i also got very obsessive of cleaning the pipe and saw things out the corner of my eyes, oh and i couldnt read or see anything straight! like the default text size on this webpage was hard for me to read and on my phone as well...

this past weekend i decided to get it through a different connect and it was different. tasted like it was better quality plus it came from a pretty good source but it did the SAME thing! just made me fiend for more and i ended up binging and smoking it for 3 days basically trying to get high off it. it made me feel pretty anti social and all it made me do was fiend for more. the crystal is good i know for a fact cause my hookup and his friends seem pretty fucked up off it.

my friends who have experience with it are lighting the bowl for me and still i get the same effects... i just fiend and fiend and fiend... and obsess over cleaning the pipe... this stuff is suppose to last for hours and hours yet i can easily smoke this entire bag in one sitting no problem and still all it does is make me feel awake for the rest of the night. is there something wrong with me or am i doing something incorrectly?

btw new to the forums! nice to meet you all. im in south east china btw if that helps at all?

that's strange.
are your friends feeling effects from the same bags that you're smoking?

 

[homeydontplaythat]

are you an IV user? im NOT suggested you go that way, just trying to figure out if you use other drugs that route.

IMO, you may be taking too much...the whole obsessive cleanliness fixation used to happen to me when i took too much adderall when i first started using it...the higher the dose, the worse my OCD symptoms became.

i would get some sleep and try it again at a lower dose...

yep same exact bags, and my friends are blasted! my dealer even smoked me out with his bag a few times when i went to pick up and he is an experienced smoker who has been smoking this stuff for like a year and a half

i used to IV heroin but i quit and that was over 3 years ago. would that affect the way i use meth though? i dont think id ever bang meth after reading about all the dangers/crazy stories here on bl lol. though that is kind of contradictory seeing as how i used to bang heroin...

is it possible to dose too much and miss the effects its suppose to give? after the first time i waited a week before trying again, and after the first bowl at my dealer's house i still didnt feel blasted at all. infact it felt the exact same as the first time i did it: mild euphoria for a few minutes, fiendish after, restlessness, and obsessive pipe cleaning after i get back to my house and smoke by myself. i guess it makes sense that if i kept redosing it would make my obsessiveness worse lol.

from what i can gather im guessing this just isnt for me. i dont feel like it gives anything in return. even crack IMHO is better than this because although i know it only lasts for 10 minutes the feeling is so intense and it is there (btw not saying anyone should choose crack or meth over one another). i personally cant justify doing meth if all i get is a 5 minute feeling of SLIGHT euphoria and then just being awake for 8 hours acting all fiendish/obsessive... i tried snorting the last bit i had hoping it would give me a different feeling but it pretty much felt the same (did about 2 matchstick sized rails, and man does this stuff BURN lol).

I dunno, sounds odd. Thinking it over I thought maybe you just were expecting it to be different, but I really can't imagine someone not noticing the effects of a decent dose of meth. Only thing I can think of is you didn't take enough, but I'd try to figure out exactly how much you are taking at a time in case you are just somehow odd, don't want you ODing. Are you on any other drugs?

 

[s1l3n7]

I guess the best way to describe how much im taking in is the amount(crushed up) in the bowl before i melt it down is about this size O. now i dont know if that will show up on your monitor the same way it does for me but its almost the size of a standard thumbtack(you know, the ones you use to flip upside down and leave on a chair for an unsuspecting victim to sit on... ), but im taking pretty much back to back hits reloading maybe every 2-5 minutes or so. the only other thing that i'm on is bud. I hadn't smoked for 2 days or so prior to the second encounter this past weekend, though. i guess i am a pretty heavy stoner. i dont know maybe i am just odd lol.

Its weird, the first three times I smoked crystal I also didn't get any positive effects compared to the amazing feeling I got from taking it orally. Smoking it just made me feel so weird, I'd just zone out and feel tired and unsociable, I'd compare it to time release methylphenidate.

It is true that smoking still isn't as much of a 'high' as eating or snorting. Its more of a euphoric relaxing rush. Then all of a sudden the fourth time it started working. Try drinking first, the first time I tried smoking it successfully I was drunk.

and even when you get the effects, a smoked bag will go so much quicker.

damn. i had already decided it wasnt for me and staying away would just be better... but you make me wanna change my mind! :D

in my younger years ive had lots of experiences with x but, in a lot of the descriptions im reading about meth it sounded like some of my experiences with what i assumed to be x. you know like the great euphoria, long lasting, lots of energy, depressed come downs, etc... so i generally assumed that, that is what it would feel like or more, and expected to feel that i guess.
