Because the comedown sucks, in the long term it's bad for your body and if you keep doing it and redosing you go crazy. Hell a lot of people go paranoid and nuts even with relatively little use. Not to mention the nonstop talking.
I'm on it right now....
Was watching an episode of Dateline on ID channel about a young couple from Minnesota I believe, I think they were like 23 or 24 years old........the bf had suggested to his college gf to smoke meth, it would be fun, from everything his/her friends & family stated, neither did drugs.
So it was her birthday & they both smoked meth & forward to 3 days later, neither had any sleep & were both driving thru a massive snow storm like 5 hours away from their apartment.
They had dialed 911 to get help but they police couldn't locate them.....the 911 operator kept asking them where they were but psychosis had settled in, they kept telling the operator they were on a road where a lot of Indians were running up & down the street jumping on cars (hallucinations obviously).........they had called the police quite a few times but couldn't give their location.
They finally got out of their car in a frigid snow storm & walked a bit until they found a barn.....they called the police again, the operator told them to stay there, but they kept saying people were outside the barn & wouldn't listen to them (the people they were talking about were really cows, another hallucination).
Finally they both left the barn never to be found alive........they both froze to death like a mile apart.......& they were engaged to be married. The girls parents did not blame the bf at all, they figured its was a big mistake on both parties.
When I read or watch stories like these, I always wonder why method users, or any other stimulant user don't have a benzo on the side like Valium. ....if this couple had some Valium, they could have slept after their first day up all night......I've never done meth so I don't know when psychosis & loss of reality kicks in, but it can be a danger game to play when you're not educated on the use of certain drugs
Always have benzos on hand if you're gonna use meth, because deaths like the couple above could have easily been prevented with some sleep.
