I am an 18 year old user of various amphetamines, my favorite so far being d-amphetamine or sold in the pharmacological market as dexedrine. Ive been using for 2 years ever since i tried a few at the age of 16 because i red on the internet the positive effects it could yield. I immediately felt better then i had ever in my entire life, it was like i was on top of the world. I had a really bad childhood situation with a lot of emotional tension with my parents and abuse, as well as being surrounded by drug abuse. So for me amphetamine was relief from the mental anguish that seemed to attack out of nowhere and not even because of anything i thought of, i just always felt hopeless and like i could never be happy. As I am typing this, i have taken 80mg of dexedrine insufflated, and I still have a cigarette pack celophane wrapping full of 80 more tablets, they are 10mg a piece. I am wondering if anyone knows the highest anyone has gone with amphetamines and died, like the highest dose, because the highest i ever went was 220mg of adderal, and i still survived. Amphetamine addiction and dependence is an insane cycle of intense happyness and intense depression and it can destroy a person over the years.

The most adderall I've taken was about 500mg in a 4 day period,It was insane I had dementia and psychosis but I survived.I also know that most amphetamine related deaths are due to accidents such as fighting or something self afflicted,and most deaths are from IV use.

Well Festus, The types of drug abuse I have seen as a child have been the abuse cycles of heroin and crack cocaine. Im old enough to understand now how narcotic abusers will go into these cycles to avoid the negative effects of either drug or to come off the other. But anyways, as far as supporting my habit goes, i can easily acquire amphetamines online from various products designed for different uses and under different brand names. Also, I have several friends who might of been prescribed to an amphetamine for adhd treatment or other purposes and buy from them for real cheap at high quantities, usually because I do things for them as well.

Hey,Endy,I got your response,I guess I was kinda wonderin how you are feeling about the cycle you,re on.Are you healthy?Do you eat much or take vitamin supplements or anything like that to guard your health?In case you,re thinkin"Why does this dude wanna know all my sh__,for,anyway?",it,s a simple answer.You remind me of me,the way I was a good while back.Funny how me and my "boys"would cruise all day to find some "pills",so we could drink more beer and Jam on our geetars aalllll night long!!Now,I gotta take 20mg of Dexedrine 3 times a day for ADD that I had all my life,but just got diagnosed a little over a year ago.Sure don,t feel like it did back then.See Ya Bud.

Give up the stimulants. (I loved them, too. Hell, I STILL love them. Just Don't touch them.) They cause permanent brain damage. There is documeted scientific evidence of this. Do a google search on "Amphetamines Seratonin Dopamine". The damage leads to plethora of psychological disorders that you will fight for the rest of your life and will degrade the quality of your life and livlihood horribly.
I am not a "born again" type. I pay attention to the reputable scientific literature and am paying an incalculable price for my past abuse.
