And yet more -
Ampetimine addiction and abuse are very real; Addicts quickly go from 30-60mg there\aputic dosed to as high as 1000-1500 mg a day to maintain a wired feeling.
Dangers are heart palpitations , sweating, nerviousness, treamors, irregular heart rhythyms leading up to and including heart attack. Other secondary dangers include sudden sleeping (after a few days awake) while doing dangerous tasks (like driving)
Fortunately, amphetimine withdrawl will not cause seizures or death (unlike barbituates or benzos - WHICH MAY CAUSE DEATH).
I am kind of prevented from abusing accellarants because if I take too many one day then I don't have enough pills for the period and have to spend the day in bed REALLY I went blind from a narcoleptic attack while walking across the room.
I have to chime in here to agree with Rocky. The first day you start with 5mg, maybe shoot it. Then by the end of the night you're doing either 20mg at once or 10mg twice as fast. Then you start running through your supply at what can only be described as an almost vertical slope. So she's not shooting it. If she's crunching it and likes the high, it's not unlike a lot of people on this board who have admitted to using hydros about 6 times a day to stay a little buzzed. But I would disagree with anyone who says it's not a problem. It can only get worse. I know that nobody ever telling me about them being a recovering addict made a bit of difference in my own decision-making, but nobody in my family so much as uses Tylenol, so I really shouldn't try to compare experiences. If she likes it and she's young, I don't know how she's going to be convinced to quit unless something health-related happens to her or she finds another, better drug. Sorry, but 19 is a bad age to be using drugs, probably one of the worst. You have access to the most you'll ever have, if you want to, you can find "friends" who do whatever you want to do, and you're young and can stay up all night. The only thing that would have made me stop at that age would have been if a family member found out. Since in her case her sister found out, maybe she's in good hands and feels enough guilt to beat the cravings. I guess that WOULD have been the only thing that would have worked for me; looking back, I kind of wished someone had...
