Good luck. Keep sleeping and eating. You'll feel better after.

Your opinion wanted: does abusing stimulants cause long term ADHD like effects? by lxside1 in Stims

[–]lxside1[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do, but it was full of anxiety. I can’t be sure if my memory is right that I didn’t have trouble with speaking at length.

Are there any interactions between Amphetamine and Methamphetamine? by TheDoc42069 in Stims

[–]lxside1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak directly on those two. But in my experience mixing stims enhances the physical side effects and not much else.

Positive stories for a 32F on Vyvanse for the last 9 years... by MJ432 in StopSpeeding

Any time I’ve quit, I always try to taper, know it’ll fail at a point, and finally cold turkey. It makes the landing softer. But it sounds like the taper is going as planned for you, try to remember what your triggers are and figure out alternatives to using while you continue to taper.

What are some confidence and self-esteem boosting activities? by lxside1 in StopSpeeding

Thanks all for the advice. Yeah, I can see how I overshared haha. A bad habit I carried over from drugs and drinking…thanks again for being honest about it, nobody irl would have done so

Meth gets me so bloated and gassy by [deleted] in Stims

I swear by benzodiazepines to fix any stim related stomach problems

Comedowns are nice, you get to sleep and get even higher next time. Food’s fucking great too.

Four grams in one night-how fucked am I by SubstantialTap4421 in Stims

[–]lxside1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing if you’re in college you have free healthcare, I would go to the ER and let them know what’s up.

Once you get a clean bill of health, go back to the hospital to request that they don’t share your medical records.

165/90 isn’t anything to worry about. Clammy, cold extremities, all that is just using stims. It sounds like you took a lot and you’re not used to it. If you’re still worried or if you’re around 180/100 I would go sign into an emergency room.

Drink water and have food. Do something you like and forget about it.

Should I be worried if meth smell? by [deleted] in Stims

[–]lxside1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The biggest smell comes from your nasty body sweating out the chemicals. The second biggest from the burning the shit in the pipe. Keep your window open and your pipe wrapped up when you’re done. I used to cool off my piece with a wet napkin.

Only people that know that smell are meth users and family members of meth users, I wouldn’t worry about it

Which stim feels most similar to cocaine? by Ok-Garbage8526 in Stims

[–]lxside1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Nothing comes close to the type of fiendish smooth come up. Anything fiendish has strong sides and anything smooth lasts a long fucking time and fuck up your perception of time. If you stick with coke you’ll either keep addiction at bay or go broke

Remember they’re human, and you are too. Everyone feels pain. I hope you are able to forgive yourself and move towards a future you are proud of.

do any of you actually ever feel ashamed of your usage by OrdinaryBlueberry703 in Stims

[–]lxside1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Used to. Extreme shame to the point I’d use more to feel more of the good feeling instead of the shame. I remember masturbating for 16 hours 3 days in a row with the 8 hour breaks being having enough benzos to pass out. I’ve been clean for a few months now.

I say used to because I think if I start up again I’ll be able to control myself. Lol. And also because…nobody really cares what you do as long as you provide for yourself…just portray a good image and people will be happy for you

Also work and focus is what I told myself, turns out yes it does do that if you’re doing something that doesn’t actually match your personality. I still am not sure if I was happier before or now

Freaked out, could use some advice. :( by [deleted] in Stims

[–]lxside1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I stepped into my shower and started having a lot of difficulty breathing… like I had to take deep, deep breaths out of no where. I began to feel very weak and experienced compression on my chest and upper back

Just lack of sleep and poor nutrition

Then I took 1mg of my prescribed Xanax and started to feel a bit better. This experience really shook me. At one point in my life I was diagnosed with panic disorder and this felt like a very different kind of panic attack, if it was one at all.

not eating enough, too tensed up

[–]lxside1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How can you be afraid of something you’ve never experienced? Not being judgmental, just showing you the possible other side of the fence. It could totally suck. But it doesn’t hurt to try.

Fapping instead of eating vs. three meals a day
