smoking ice

Meth is the holy grail of tweakers, a great drug, a great time, but it comes with a lot of other aspects that any user, especially a newbie, should be well aware of before getting into this world.  I am writing this post to spread and encourage the safe and proper use of meth, because the right way is fantastic and the wrong way sucks. 

ROA: there are 4 actual ways to ingest meth, some people prefer certain ways, but i intend for my readers to at least try three of the four ways.

1.SMOKING: A sack of meth usually comes in the form of many very small crystals (almost powder), with bigger crystals among them. When it comes to smoking, you want the bigger crystals, because they don’t burn as quick, therefore you waste less. Put a crystal in your pookie, make sure its at the bottom, and slowly (but with rhythm) twist it with your fingers back and forth, (not even that much) while keeping the flame under, but barely or not touching the glass. Just put the flame close while to get a crystal burning (if it’s powdery, don’t let the flame touch at all that would burn the shit.) Then slowly suck in the smoke. People who lack tolerance should exhale immediately after their done hitting.  Basically, you never want to end up with soot on your pipe, that means you went too close.  Now, one fat hit is a pretty recreational dose, a newbie would be just fine with one, maybe two spread out hits.  IMPORTANT: the thing about smoking is that it takes about 10 minutes to realize how high you are, so it’s very easy to overdo it.   Take ten-fifteen minutes between hits if your doing a lot.   

TIP–NEVER LET THE FLAME TOUCH THE HOLE AT THE TOP OF THE POOK!  METH AND FIRE DO NOT MIX!!

2. SNORTING: This is personally my favorite way.  You can use the powdery shit for this. I usually will snort half a dimebag at once, but a newbie can simply pull out a mid sized crystal out of their 20 sack and snort that, or do a keybump.    You must crush it completely into powder to snort it, or it’s gonna fuck your nose up.   Take a credit card and crush the desired amount into powder.  I find that meth gets stuck in most surfaces, so i usually just crush it between two cards.  After. put it on the table and make a line.  If your doing a fat line, you can split it in two and suck up one right after the other to minimize burn.    Remember to wait at least five minutes to redose, so you don’t overdo it. Snorting gives a great head change, and yeah, it burns, but it’s a great burn.

TIP–WATER IS YOUR SECOND FUEL. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS HAVE WATER WITH YOU WHILE TWEAKING!

3.INJECTING: This form of ingesting is the most intense, however, you come down faster and harder! Not to mention it is the only sure fire way to feel withdrawals quickly. It’s something i recommend doing once a week max, it can get risky if you surpass that.  I’m going to leave preparation out of this atm, but if you decide to shoot up, make sure you got someone who knows what they are doing, and make sure you’ve seen them successfully shoot (not missing, no cotton fever, good confidence, and still hands) before having them do it to you.   Anyway, injecting usually (depending on the quality) will give you an intense rush involving the “bell”, a distinct buzzing, a unique type of nausea and intense euphoria. Every 10 mills. is a benchmark.  A newbie would be fine with a “dime” (10 mills.), then after shooting two or three times (CLOSE TOGETHER, WITHIN THE SAME WEEK), the newbie can graduate to a “dub” (20 mills.)   I highly discourage going past 30 mills. as more would just raise your tolerance and cause addiction. Personally, i do not enjoy injecting by itself, it’s too short lived.  However, if you smoke 20-30 minutes after the shot, you won’t come down so fast, and your high will be amazing!!  Always be careful though, it is very easy to OD on meth while shooting up, so don’t try to overdo it. If you OD, you will get awful withdrawal like side effects, or you’ll just pass out, or die. 

4. PILLS/PARACHUTING: The most medical method to use meth, you can either get vitamin capsules from a store (just dump the vitamin out and put the shit in) or just wrap a dose in tissue or toilet paper (make sure its completely covered, or it could burn your stomach, which isn;t bad, but hurts) and just swallow it.  I’d suggest a newbie go with a five sack at once. It will take around 30 minutes to kick in, but will last much longer.   

                 SAFETY: Meth is a very unpredictable drug, which means that anyone who is new to it needs to do it right to not risk disaster. Here are some simple steps to guide anyone the right way.

ENVIRONMENT: If you are new to this drug, you will want to do it around good, trustworthy friends, preferably in a house where no one would care. Remember to not overdo it if your by yourself. Don’t be in a position where you would have to get emotionally involved in anything. BE HAPPY!  that is very important, being optimistic can turn the comedown into something decent and keep you from looking like a tweaker. Also, GUM, you will want gum for two reasons: because tweaking makes your jaw shake, (a telltale tweaker sign) and tweaking makes you chew the fuck out of your tongue. Gum will resolve both these issues.  Most people don’t seem to get dialated eyes on speed for very long, but if that makes you sketch, sunglasses will do the trick. If you cannot find friends to tweak around, just make sure you have something to do, that will keep you well busy.  I’m talking like, making music or working on a computer, nothing extra physical. 

TIP–NEVER EVER EVER MIX ANY STIMULANT WITH ANY PSYCADELIC!!!!  THEY DON’T MIX, THEY CAUSE A VERY INTENSE AND PAINFUL REACTION IN YOUR BODY THAT CAN PERMENANTLY FUCK UP YOUR RESPIRATORY AND CADIOVASCULAR SYSTEMS! TRUST ME, THIS IS FIRST HAND!

BINGING: Here’s where it’s very important to be careful.  The decent (euphoria, confidence, ect.) effects of meth only last two consecutive days.  Going past that is very unhealthy and basically pointless, but, i’ve done it, so i have advice to all the all week tweakers as well.  First off, WATER!  if you are binging (or just doing meth at all) you NEED water.  Since Meth dehydrates you by using water as energy, water is your second fuel, especially if your binging!  Keep a water bottle at all times while tweaking, and sip it at least every ten-fifteen minutes.  You will feel much better. Secondly, is SLEEP.  People have a tendency to neglect sleep while tweaking.  Thats fine on a normal day or a 1-2 day binge, but if your regularly using Shit, you NEED to teach your body to sleep while high.  You can do it, it’s not hard.  Sleeping during a binge is far healthier for your heart and it prevents psychosis.  Thirdly, FOOD!  You may not know it, but going a day spun out, not hungry, not eating is hard on your body.  Just like sleeping, on a binge, or with regular use, you NEED to teach yourself to eat while on Meth.  I know, it’s hard, you don’t feel like it, but your body needs it, and it will make your trip a world better than what it could be.      IMPORTANT!!: DO NOT BINGE MORE THAN FIVE-SIX DAYS!,  you are risking serious damage to your body (heart) and even death if you go that far.  1-2 days, perfect. Also, KEEP BINGING TO ONCE A MONTH AT MOST!   Lastly, moderate your Shit use.   Don’t use more than a half gram total when binging.   If your binge is longer than 2 days, the same rule applies, half gram.   DON’T SHOOT UP after the first day of your binge, if at all.   It’s risky, and either way, you’ll pay for it after. On a binge, you want to spread out your hits as much as you can.  Binging is not about getting as spun as you can in a matter of minutes, it’s about staying up for a lengthy period of time, the better you understand that, the funner time you’ll have and healthier you will be.                       

TIP–METH WILL MAKE YOU EXTREMELY HORNY, WHETHER YOU ARE BINGING, COMING DOWN, OR TAKING YOUR FIRST HIT.   WHILE BINGING, MAKE SURE THOSE HORNY THOUGHTS AND PORNOS DON’T KEEP YOU UP ALL NIGHT.  THAT CAN HAPPEN VERY EASILY.

COMEDOWN: Now, the comedown is a very integral part of tweaking. How bad it is depends on your use. It is when your brain is coping with the loss dopamine and regeneration. Symptoms are depression, anger, irritability, anxiety, and insomnia. The good and bad parts come in waves, however, so you will feel bad, then euphoric, until you are sober. Meth, in my opinion, has a very light and controllable comedown IF you’ve only done a normal dose.   Propylhexedrine (Benzedrex) is farrr worse, the worst amphetamine comedown.  Anyway, theres no real need to worry if you only snorted a line or took a couple hits. However, if        you’ve been doing it all day, shot up, or are binging, you will want a  benzo for the comedown. Xanax, ativan, ambien, valium or klonopin will do.  I suggest taking a Xanny bar as soon as you decide the comedown sucks.   Weed and alcohol work amazing for the comedown as well if you don’t have benzos.   IMPORTANT!!: Remember to not give in to the temptation of using more when you feel the comedown.   Just remember that it really isn’t bad, and focus on getting downers. A comedown off a binge will be much worse than a day sesh, obviously, but as long as you don’t shoot up, the comedown should be mellow.

CRASH: The crash is the intense part of any binge.  Not as bad as comedown or withdrawal, you just feel extremely tired and burnt. This is when all the loss of energy, sleep, ect. catches up.   You can use benzos if you want, alcohol would work too, but weed is by far the best substance to use on a crash, it provides a unique high that isn’t bad at all. You can take melatonin pills and camamille tea to help with your crash. Just make sure you sleep as soon as you feel that super tired, dead feeling hits, staying up or doing shit during the crash is a very bad idea.   

TIP–One sure fire thing that has worked for my crashes is my friend’s psych meds, Clozapine.  YOU ONLY NEED 1/8 OF THE PILL!!!  That will knock you the fuck out fast, that shit is strong.   Don’t go past that, Clozapine is extremely easy to OD on.

WITHDRAWAL: Once you get past the crash of a binge (or go cold turkey off heavy use), you will feel withdrawal. Your body has gotten very used to having Meth in it’s system and it wants more.  This is the real test of will for most tweakers.  Withdrawals are no big deal if you just went hard the day before, but if you have been binging, that is quite a different story. They are non lethal, but symptoms include anxiety, despair, depression, sleeplessness, hypertension, compulsive twitching, HEAVY heartbeat and heavy breathing.  A benzo is your best bet.  Weed works too, BUT make sure it is SATIVA, not indica. Indica will fuck with your hypertension, sativa is prime for withdrawals though. They will last 1 to 3 days depending on how hard you were going.   IMPORTANT!! NEVER LET YOUR BODY GO INTO WITHDRAWALS AND THEN HIT METH!!   THIS WILL BRING THE WITHDRAWALS BACK WAYYYY WORSE!!  Opiates, hands down are the best for curing meth withdrawal. If you get dope, opi pills or some flip, you’ll be just fine.     

TIP–NEVER SMOKE CIGARETTES DURING WITHDRAWAL!!  They will fuck with your hypertension BIG TIME!  

  AFTERMATH: After coming off a binge, you’ll have to decide if your going to stop doing shit for awhile, or keep going.  That is up to you if you came off a one or two day binge, but any longer than that, TAKE A BREAK.   The issues i’m addressing in this paragraph are the long term and stereotypical values people hold to meth. 

LONG TERM USE: Meth can be used on a regular basis healthily if certain rules are followed. I don’t recommend any sort of consistancy with meth use, but it can be used medicinally, therupedicly, and as a work tool, so it’s not a big deal.  If using regularly (or if in the middle of a binge) watch your hygiene.  It’s easy to forget to shower or change your clothes when spun out. Also, BRUSH YOUR TEETH if you smoke it.  Meth is a chemical, it will wear at your teeth if used too much, but good oral hygiene will offset that.                 Another important rule is CHANGE UP THE ROA. Smoke it one day, snort it the next, parachute the next, shoot the next, for example.  Meth is a chemical, whatever orefice you use it a lot on, it will wear at, (teeth, nose, veins, ect.) but if you change it up, your body will thank you.  Below are examples of healthy ways to use regularly.         And for the record, the below recommendations are far healthier with no shooting at all, but some people gotta shoot, so i’m putting in my healthiest recommendation.

LIGHT USE(20 sack a week or less NO SHOOTING) This would be for newbies, or people who stick to the drug medicinally (i am not counting recreational users as regular users)  Smoking a bowl or two every day is perfect for those who lack tolerance.  Veteran users may not realize this, but a single decent hit of meth will get a person spun out for hours. A light user should spread thier dime bag or dub every other day through the week, unless they have scheduled work or something, but a couple days off a week are important.  After a MONTH of use, there should be a two week to month session of sobriety before coming back.

MODERATE USE(20-40 sack a week OCCASIONAL SHOT, once a week AT MOST) People who buy this much are more into it, usually have jobs they want to get through, or are just plain habitual users. This amount should not be used to binge AT ALL, but used every other day, BEFORE the evening, so you can sleep every night.  After a month or two of use, there should be AT LEAST 2 weeks off, preferrably a month or two off, but a short break is just fine.

RECOMMENDED HEAVY USE(60 sack or more a week, SHOT LIMIT TWICE IN A WEEK, WITH SOME WEEKS OFF)  As far as my opinion goes, this is way to much to fuck with on a regular basis, so it’s not too healthy, but there’s no reason you can’t be a heavy user and get the most out of it.  DON’T use every day.   Take at least one day off a week, two days every other week.  With use this heavy, a given user should keep benzos around just in case they have an off day and need to chill or sleep.   Try never to use in the evening unless you can sleep through your high. After two months, take as much time off as possible, it is a good idea to find another drug to fuck with while your body recovers, minimum 2 weeks. Keep in mind, i am assuming that a “heavy” user can handle his shit (life, emotions, ect.) while high. If yout going past light use and at the same time you notice people being hostile or different,   and things just aren’t going right, that is a sign to cut back or quit.  Keep an eye on how the drug affects you.

STIGMA: Meth has a fat stigma attatched to it, and while it is an exaggerated stigma, part of it is very much legit. Just follow the basics of this guide and there is nothing to worry about, but in any case, time to address these issues.    Yes, people can and do lead normal lives being meth users. It’s all moderation, additionally, contrary to popular belief, meth itself doesn’t do SHIT to your brain cells, not directly.  People lose brain cells from not sleeping, not using meth, so make sure to get some z’s on an overnight tweak sesh. Other than that, make sure you have decent hygiene and aren’t an asshole to your friends while tweaking.  And that’s that, it really isn’t some super drug, its simply a dopamine releaser, a marvel of science

MEDICINAL USE: More so than ritalin or adderall, a conveniant side effect of meth is that is destroys adhd, and makes people focus. It can be used at school or work at low doses (non-recreational).  Smoking and snorting while at a public place can be a pain, so parachute that shit, that is the most medicinal form, as it takes 30 to kick in and the high is light but long lasting. Meth is also a great replacement for coffee if your reallyyy tired, or not even!

TIP–DON’T MIX COFFEE WITH METH OR ANY OTHER STIMULANT!  AWFUL HIGH, FEELS LIKE DEATH

TWEAKERS: Meth users are a whole community of people who have one thing in common; Meth! Tweakers i know are usually very chill, and anyone who really digs Shit will have to amass a group of tweaker homies eventually. While they can be moochers, you will recieve good things when you least expect them if you are cool or shoot them an occasional bowl or shot. Just mind the ones who are having thier comedown or crash days and be a pal, they could always use some handouts or someone just to chill with.
