Dose - Can you use it every couple of weeks??

[altnipper]

Swim was wondering if using speed (form that looks wet like marzipan a bit) once every two weeks wasn't too bad, Swim understands that using mdma that often prob isn't very good and a tolerance is built up leading to having to take more and more. But as speed works differently, Swim's read of people taking it every day, obviously don't want to do this, swim knows that addictiveness of this stuff, but once every couple of weeks maybe enough to handle?

Thanks

I'd offer a tentative 'yes'. But it depends on a few factors.

Availability: SWiM has been able to limit his use to only once every couple of weeks, but one of the biggest factors in his being able to do his limited access to stimulants. If he had free and unlimited access to high-purity pre-measured amphetamine or 4-mar (or even lisdexamfetamine) I can say he'd be pretty much fucked.

Biochemistry: SWiM happens to experience (due to chronic dopamine deficiency) god-awful, long-as-fucking-hell comedowns. Because of this, using speed frequently becomes very very unpleasant very fast for SWiM. If a comedown for you is 'I'm in a bad mood for twenty minutes', the temptation to binge is much greater.

Thinking through your situation and examining your potential problems and pitfalls is essential when deciding whether using a given drug can be safe for you.

Too many determining, limiting and enforcing factors determine one's
frequency of usage, but you can reduce your chances of falling into a harmful use-pattern by utilizing as many of the right harm reduction techniques as you can.

Hope this helps.

If ever a drug had a natural built-in mechanism to limit your usage then speed has. Swim used to love it but couldn't seem to use it more than 4 days in a row simply because of the effects from lack of sleep.
Swim used to try and avoid the comedown by staying whizzed up but swim found he was dreaming whilst awake and holding random conversations with inanimate objects after a few days. Oh, and the comedown was black, really black.
Swim echoes everything Felix said in terms of comedown severity. Swim even met a girl once who actually went to work as a toy demonstrater whilst coming down off of speed. Still smiling, still bubbly and very cheerful. Others need to take a few days off whilst they try to talk themselves out of suicide.
Take things easy and see how it goes is my best advice.

Part of swims question really meant would you get the full effects of speed if used once every 2 weeks? as opposed to mdma which if you use it that often doesn't work as well pretty soon in swims experience. Thanks

I think the amount of addicts worldwide would STRONGLY disagree with the above comment!

Lol, ok, ok, point made. Swim was speaking from personal experience and now swim is exposed as a lightweight.
Swims constitution has never been able to tolerate a speed binge but concedes that he has know dudes constantly on the stuff.
How, god alone knows. Swim would be a gibbering wreck.

SWIM would not advise to take speed say every 2 weeks or something like that...
1. the effects will go down hill...the euphoria will vanish verry soon..
2. addiction is a BIG risk... speed will be very mentaly addictive and in a while nothing will see as fun as speed...

^^^ Bullshit! Not for point 2. SWIM agrees with you there but for point 1.

If you do speed and go on a bender then do none for two weeks then your tolerance will be gone completley and you'll get as high as you did two weeks prior...

Trust SWIM he has been doing amphetamines in one way or another (once a month at least, multiple times a week at most) for 14yrs now and to this day if I go on a 5 - 6 day bender than stop for two weeks the speed will have optimum effect.

SWIM agrees with SWIDM on point 1. though. The shit is ridiculouosly habit forming
