I recently quit speed. What a horrible drug. It has to be the dirtiest thing I've ever put in my body. I did it off and on for two years and "quit" many times. I've been trying to figure out my attraction to it since I always hated amphetamines.
When I coupled it with alcohol, my social phobia was drastically reduced. I don't know if I'd call it euphoric, but I felt hella good. It also got in me in a lot of trouble. For a while I was giving my dealer lap dances in exchange for the drug. Then I bought it with money that was intended for greater purposes, rent, my family, and getting out of debt.
Right now I'm crying and I don't know if its from guilt or from cravings. It wasn't until several weeks ago that I realized that I of all people, being bipolar, had no business doing this drug. Maybe I liked speed because it gave me more control over the lows and highs. At least I could decide when they happen and how long they would last.
Sorry I rambled on so long. This has been prevalent on my mind. As far as your question goes, I don't know a prescription substitute for speed except ADHD meds like adderal and ritalin.
These are actually stimulants unlike straterra.licious
