Side effects - 100mg dexedrine in one day, strange effects

[cobetcknncoio3]

although pretty experienced with amphetamine, SWIM usually takes adderall, but this time he got dexedrine. dosing several times a week, (not necessarily every day though, but some weeks almost every day, and usually dosing 50-75mg), he has a pretty high tolerance. anyway, today, after taking dexedrine in excess of 100 milligrams (more amphetamine than he's ever ingested in the space of 24 hours), SWIM started to notice some pretty strange effects:

-significant shift in perception of reality (more than usual while speeding; feeling of dissasociation from where SWIM really is, "not all there")
-some sudden, brief nausea earlier that made SWIM gag, did not vomit though
-strange visual sensations (everything looks all wierd...can't really describe it, but SWIM's field of vision seems somewhat distorted and everything looks and feels unstable, like the world is moving all around him)

the exact dose was 30mg snorted 21 hours ago, 45mg taken orally 12 hours ago, then another 45mg snorted about 3 hours ago. all of it was dexedrine spansules, the snorted ones were thoroughly crushed up and hit SWIM harder than the oral doses. SWIM slept 2 hours last night. no other substances are present in his system. mentally and physically, he feels extremely euphoric, and pretty relaxed, psychologically in a deep, almost meditative state. in fact, SWIM could say he's enjoying this quite a bit. no auditory or visual hallucinations, aside from the slight visual disturbances mentioned earlier.

anyway, oddly enough, SWIM doesn't feel paranoid, scared or the least bit uncomfortable, but is suprised over these very powerful effects. SWIM feels pretty comfortable and isn't too worried about it, but was just wondering what is really the main cause of this: dose, frequency of using, sleep deprivation, or just the fact that it's dexedrine, which SWIM only tried once and isn't too familiar with, instead of adderall? or could it be a combination of several or all of these things?

SWIM recently took the most dex he has ever taken in one time frame. He snorted 80mg over the course of 5 hours. He used it for studying and it helped immensely. He felt semi-euphoric while he was studying. An hour after his last dose he began to feel completely void of energy. He felt quite dissociated after he came down and slept for a very long time the next day.

SWIM would say that SWIyou are feeling dissociated because of lack of sleep.

SWIM has had similar effects at similar doses of Dexedrine. Disconnected, nauseous, world moving. It's normal, all things considered.

On about day 3, SWIM starts seeing the shadow people, who seem to have an affinity for red hooded sweatshirts. This can be circumvented by sleeping at least 3 (preferably 4) hours per day and remembering to eat. SWIM prefers crackers with cream cheese to settle her stomach, and rotisserie chicken. Unfortunately, SWIM is a slow learner and often fails to take preventative measures. Other than the nausea and the eventual appearance of the shadow people, SWIM quite enjoys the effects of high Dex doses.

Yeah I know what you guys mean. It's like in excessive doses (80+ milligrams), d-amphetamine is somewhat psychedelic and weird. No stimulation, just massive visual disturbances, a feeling of tiredness but you know you are on d-amphetamine so you keep awake, weird physical sensations, dissociated and wondering if you 'took to much'. Glad I'm not the only one who experiences this phenomena!

There are a lot of things to consider here. Swiy should see if they are eating enough food or getting enough sleep as both can cause some pretty strange effects. Swiy might also be running through his neurotransmitter supplies as those doses of amphetamine can cause massive neurotransmitter release, maybe a break and some precursors (l-tyrosine and 5-htp) are in order?

yeah a break is definitely in order, binges like this never end well for SWIM. as of now he no longer feels affected, having finished off his last 30mg this morning, and it having worm off hours ago. all there is now is the comedown, which is amplified by the large size of the dose, combined with the effects of not having eaten or slept in the past 48 hours. and to top it all off, SWIM had just a downright shitty day today. lol.
