Coming down for days

Why are my comedown's getting worse! they used to be nothing at all, but now they shit me. And cause I know they are coming it makes it even worse. Then when I am coming down I think about it while I sit alone and get depressed. Takes about 4, 5 or 6 days to get back to completley nomal.

ps. from extacy + meth + alcohol

 

uuhh duhhh

 

sorry that was rude. what i meant to say is-

that is the way of life.

all those drugs cause tolerance. they also cause your body to counteract their effect as soon as you get them, or even have them around you. the more you take them, the more your body knows that they are gonna make your brain go intense, and your brain (as much as your mind may think otherwise) always tries to be at equilibrium. so when it knows the drug is coming, it starts to react in an attempt to keep you at baseline. then, when the drug wears off, you not only have the 'opponent process' but you also have the comedown. not only this but you have less chemicals to flow through your synapses if you dont wait a while between each tiem you take (and have a healthy diet). so when you come down, you have no reserves of serotonin or gaba or dopamine to keep you feeling alright.

 

Nah I have a very healthy lifestyle, but I go hard some weekends.

It's becomming more of a mind thing... I sometimes get dissapointed cause I'm a "druggie", or I think I am an addict (social addict), think I hide everything from my family etc...

Physically I can handle it, I can sleep it off if I'm tired, and I enjoy tweaking when comming off meth or xtc... but it sucks hiding from family and other non drug users while coming down, and that depresses me.

 

yer dude thats come down talk...
comedowns come with the emotional and the physical
when i come down i jus feel tired but i have friends who sit there and cry over stuff
jus part of the lifestyle baby x x x

 

swap out the meth for some shrooms or acid and your comedowns will be better. Oh yeah don't drink when eating shrooms or rolling on e.

 

omg... I didnt plan on having anything on Friday night, but after a bottle of JW Black a friend asked if i wanted a globe before she left, it was only a little bit so yeah went for it. Unfortunately it was the bombay! and I started ringing around to find ppl to go in with me to get a bunch. Stayed up smoking constantly untill 11:30am the next day, then had to go shopping while buzzing off my cha-cheese!

ate some sushi.

Went to my place, met my mate and started pre-drinks drinking games. A few more people turned up and we were pretty drunk by 3pm. We left to go see Daft Punk at 4pm and I lovin it. Got to the concert and kept drinking and meeting up with a lot of people.

6pm dropped pill #1 with a mate, it kicked in at 6:30 (pretty quick).

7:20 dropped pill #2

7:30 dropped half a pill.

8pm DAFT PUNK BABY!

strong pills were awesome, danced and drank like a mofo.

Went to my house with a couple mates and railed the rest of the meth I had left. They left shortly after cause it was sunday and they had to work in the morning.

Some girl came over so I sang her a couple songs and took her to bed, but we didnt do much sleeping. Oh yeah, she had a pill so we crushed it and railed it.


I had to take monday and wednesday off work. I went in at 1pm on tuesday, its thursday now and I came in at 2:30. The meth fucked my voice and I have only just been able to talk today (got some medication for it). Feeling like a little bitch all depressed n shit haha, what a tool!

I'll get on with it, but the meth is starting to have a lot more down sides than upsides. Time to seriously think about kickin it.

 

I had some meth 2 weeks ago, and I was depressed for 7 days after, and only just feeling 95% normal now.

I used to bounce back from an all nighter after 1 sleep... now its taking a week and it's not just physical, its more mental/depressing.

 

E has just made me feel really mentally incapable the day after taking it, sometimes even into the next day. Amphetamine comedowns aren't fun either. They're not particularly bad, but extremely long.

Weed is the best comedown remedy =)

 

alcohol is a depressant, so coming down would suck regardless

x fucks with your serotonin levels so of course youll feel like shit afterwards

meth.. thats just fucked up man, meth people are fucked up regardless of their lifestyle

 

why do u people do this to yourselves??

 

You can't do that every weekend....even as appetizing as it may sound.

 

This is quite possibly the best explanation to a neophyte on the subject that I've heard. Kudos.

Also, maybe i should try that "sorry that was rude, heres the deal" approach in the future. That way i can still get in my smart assed remarks and not piss off the newbies . . .

Edit: Also, it seems my body has an opposite reaction from the norm. When scrip day comes around I'm practicaly tweekin all morning till i go pick it up. Thats a bit strange . . .

 

i really hate to say it but the honest truth is if you do drugs. there will be consequences rather it be depression or anything else. when you start feeling different defiantly take a break

 

EyeCyoo can answer your own question? you feel like shit now for 4-5 days? wtf look what your putting into your body. im guessin you do drugs often. you tellin us about your day and poppin the pills drinkin ect then taking meth?

i have taken xtc 2 dozen times and the only thing i have with me is weed.
drinking and rolling is fucking dumb shit if you ask me.
doing meth is even dumber.

 

Thank you for your enlightening input. My god what was I doing all these years?! We have all seen the error of our ways for Friends has shown us the light by telling us how dumb meth is. Thank you kind sir.

i had one of the best times ever at the recent Sydney Mardi Gras. Ive never been before so i figured id go all out and get IN the parade, drink a point of base, and take a few pills.

i dunno about you meth and chem bashers, but i couldnt have imagined it any other way. you can tell why superstars take coke so much - stimulant highs like that amplify feelings of pride and power, so when the cameras start blinding you, it may as well be ecstacy blasting right out at you. (this is in my experience)

theres a time and place for everything. if youre going to be parading down the main club strip of your city with 300,000 people cheering and watching and reaching out for you, totally dressed up (or down lol) with sexy mardigras style, thats the time and place for drugs like meth. and i dont think anyone could disagree.

doing meth every week? well youll survive but dont expect your brain to be functioning at its appopriate potential..

then again, whos brain does?

 

i suggest that perhaps this is merely the excitement that humans get when they feel assured that they will be getting what they want at a certain point in time.

like, if you werent gonna be getting a script, all the anxious energy that is being released in the absence of your drugs would make you frustrated.. but since you believe/have assured yourself that youd be getting the drugs at a certain point, that anxious energy can manifest as excitement.

what do you think?

 

Yeah, thats pretty much what I had thought. I used to do the same thing with coke. Driving to the coke dealers was usually the best part of the night . . .

 

The ritual is half the fun... getting together, everyone agreeing to getting high tonight, making calls to see who's holding, working out price/quantity, driving to get it, putting it all on the table just before everyone takes it and having the feeling of "scoring".

^^^That part is great, the chase.
