Quote from: fractalglobal on January 14, 2013, 08:37 amI'm in a bad way right now. Although not strictly methamphetamine related, I figure I'd probably get decent info from this thread over any others.I take dexamphetamine 25-40mg daily and have done so for the past few years. About 10 days ago I ran out, no possibility of getting a script due to extremely high waiting times to see a psych in aus. I have 3 orders for speed coming through but with variability of Aus shipping times, they could take anywhere from a week to a month to get here.Since I ran out I've been going through pretty bad withdrawals, sleeping 16 hours a day, can't focus on anything, 24/7 migraine, and I am pretty much constantly irritable/frustrated. It's gotten to the point where I usually just take 2mg midazolam as soon as I wake up and try to sleep the day away.Is there any better ways of dealing with it? Given my somewhat low dosage I didn't expect it to hit me quite this hard so I wasn't prepared in any way for the brutal come down I'm now experiencing.I am truly sorry, my friend, but I know of absolutely no way this can be avoided. It gets worse the longer you (ab)use daily. If you have to stay awake for work or something, any stim you can get where you are can help. But it's not going to make it go away. Nothing makes it go away except getting more amphetamine.I'll even take sudafed, several caffeine pills, drink a few cups of coffee, and pop something with yohimbe as soon as I wake up if I'm in a really bad way and can't afford to be. It at least keeps me awake, even if I end up fucking up whatever I had to do anyway. My sleeping usually regulates itself within 3-4 days of running out, but the other things stay for weeks. I've never gone longer than 2 or so, but they were getting steadily better, I'll say that much. I'm sure it would continue improving until I adjusted, and you would too if you choose to. It's always an option, even if it hardly looks like one.Apologies for being a week late with this, but I didn't see it and I really am sorry you have to go through it. It's just part of the price of daily amphetamine use. Unless you end up losing everything to addiction, I'd even say it may actually be the worst price... sleeping for a few days I can handle, but the restlessness and boredom is enough to drive me to tears. Literally sometimes.
