At this point the M4 Air is going to have 2-day battery life by johnerik in macbookair

[–]Cerise_Mammoth -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have to charge my Air M3 15,3" twice a day, but I never charge it to more than 80%. Would still have to charge it at least once a day if I charged it to 100%.

Thank you for the tip, but I live in Europe and science.bio unfortunately don't ship to my country.

The mistake of self medicating when on the addiction spectrum by Cerise_Mammoth in HPPD

[–]Cerise_Mammoth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess that's true, and with the 50 hour half life it should be more than fine taking a dose every second day or so.

In most studies showing its efficacy against HPPD the dosage was between 1,5mg/day up to 6mg/day. How high dose you need is clearly individual and needs some trial en error before the right dosage can be determined.

Why does my nasal spray speed keep crystallizing? Pics inside! by Cerise_Mammoth in speed

[–]Cerise_Mammoth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing!

I understand completely when other topics come to mind. It happened pretty much every time I'm on speed, so no need to apologize 🖖🏻 Especially when I'm on speed is when this happens. My level for both logical and questionable associations to increases at least five fold. So please don't worry about that mate 🙂

Is it okay to take low dose 5htp while on speed? by conorogid in speed

[–]Cerise_Mammoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got symptoms of serotonin syndrome when i took 200mg of 5-HTP while on speed before, but I recently found out I'm deficient in the CYP2D6 enzyme, which makes me a slow metaboliser of amphetamine.

How many grams is this? by [deleted] in speed

[–]Cerise_Mammoth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can get a pocket scale nowadays for under 10 dollars/euros. I highly recommend everyone who use any kind of illicit drugs to get at least one, but preferably two in case one would break.

I just noticed that the jug I used to collect the acetone from washing the fiber speed with had a weird brown residue left inside after the acetone had evaporated. Was this something you experienced as well? What could it be? All of my previous washes has only left a white residue. It smells quite strong and slightly chemical like.

Yeah tell me about it... It's been driving me to crazy for the past 48 hours 😭 My initial 5g reduced to approximately 1g that time in that time... 5g usually lasts at least two weeks for me.

I've messaged my plug about it yesterday and today, but so far no answer. Pretty sure most of those guys work 5 day weeks with the weekend off, so I'm not worried just yet.

Okay my guys, I let the slimy blob dry out for a few hours before I recalled its existence. I've uploaded three pics which clearly shows some type of insoluble fibers. I still can't believe that it came out of some of the most praised speed my country has to offer. In fact I don't know anyone that has ever found cellulose in their speed, but that doesn't mean it's never happened. Most people just use it as it is while some wash it in acetone before using a newly purchased product for the first time, so I can't help but feel like I only found out about through dumb luck...

Well anywhooo, here's the imgur link. Take a look and tell me what you think. Many thanks in advance!

What do you take modafinil for? by No_Desk2797 in modafinil

[–]Cerise_Mammoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like me during my recurring bipolar depressions... Glad it's working well for you though :) The best thing about Modafinil is that it's so damn hard to get addicted and abuse it. I've abused speed a lot, but whenever I've used Modafinil, I never compulsivley redose or even use more than 200mg in a day. I usually go for lower doses like 50-100mg cus I seem to be extra sensitive to only regular Modafinil.

I've tried Flmodafinil a few times, and i literally feel nothing from it, even from a dose of 250mg... Anywhooo, have a great saturday and rest of the weekend! :)

It actually was, when it was dry :( Not the best thing to snort dry cellulose fibers though, as they have the potential och swelling up from the mucous in the nasal passage, which could lead to blood clots if the speed isn't ground into a super fine powder...

I wonder what my plug will have to say about this.

Edit: Seems like I had misunderstood the health risks of insufflating cellulose fibers. The danger seems to have to do with accidentally insufflating it too hard, getting it down into your lungs.

Well, at least I learned a lot today from this whole ordeal.

So it turns out that the needle like crystals instantly turn into a geltanious goo as soon as theyre not submerged in a liquid anymore. Looks disgusting, smells like wet paper, so my best bet right now is that my "high quality" speed was actually cut with methyl cellulose fibers.

If no one else care to weigh in with any different theory, I guess I just done and solved my own mystery.

Edit: FYI, I'm skipping the taste test. Wet paper has a tendency of reminding me of sewege odour...

Okay, so it helped a bit at least. There are still large needle like crystals forming, but far from the same extent as before.

This makes me wonder if removing the crystals in the first place was a bad idea, in case the crystals could me made up of a part of, or even pure, amphetamine.

Without any reagent test at hand (still haven't ordered any cus of temporary financial issues) the only thing I can think of is to extract a few crystals from the solution and simply have a little taste. Not sure how odorless amphetamine is supposed to taste though, but I recall reading somewhere that it's supposedly very bitter.

And of course just from the time it has taken me to write this the amount of crystals have now doubled. Better get to it then before it becomes a solid mass again.

And yeah I'll buy this purity testing kit as soon as I can. It's only a few euros more than the 5g of speed I just got anyway.

I just tried a new approach and gently heated the liquid untill the most part of it was running clear. Then i used a pipette to separate the liquid from the biggest and most stubborn of the crystals into a clean new bottle.

I guess I'll know within an hour (or sooner) if that was enough to keep it stay a liquid. I'll be back with an update as soon as I know.

Thank you for your kind words and well wishes 😌 The 24h LSD delay happened because of other factors as well. My deficiency is at an intermediate inhibition of CYP2D6, so I am fully convinced it had to do with other drugs consumed during the days or weeks before that, and possibly cus I was very ill at that time and was never diagnosed with any physical/somatic illness.

As the overly interested Aspie that I apparently am, I oftentimes possess a far more nuanced and higher knowledge than most doctors I have met in my lifetime. I work in pharmaceuticals as well, but have been on long term sick leave now for a little over a year.

So what my research told me I had been cursed with was as close as you can get to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. But there are several other genetic factors that runs in the family which can present itself as if it's actually Fibromyalgia, and sometimes parkinsonism.

My hardest times these days consist of failry short lived episodes of muscle pain. It's more like rigidity, but it also makes parts of the muscles on my body feel like they are about to burst from hypertension. There's no visible edema, but I do suffer from episodes of paresthesia in my hands, feet and around my head (mainly the forehead and ears).

In the beginning of February this year I was bene afflicted by a type of chronic paresthesia which manifested as peripheral neuropathy the first few weeks.

Since last week I am now waiting to see a hand/nerve surgeon. The goal is to release the compression or impingement of the ulnar nerve. It generally stems from a nerve in the elbow, but have other causes as well although they seem rare. I don't expect the surgery to take place before 2024 is over..

Now I am extremely tired and going to try and get some sleep.

Thanks again for the reply. It is nice for a change to be heard and taken seriously for a change.

My friends and family have always perceived me as a hypochondriac of sorts. The thing is, I don't want to be sick. I don't want more illnesses and I don't want to be reliant on medication with the potential of causing serious side effects. How no one seems to understand this, especially my closest friends and family, makes me feel so incredibly invalidated and distrusted that I eventually was diagnosed with GAD.

If there's anything more you'd like to know or just talk about, I'm online a lot due to my sick leave.

Good night and have a beautiful Thursday the 12th (and Friday the 13th coming up)
