From my experience with meth, the first time you use, your heart is racing, you don't have a care in the world and you can do anything you want to. Then you come down and think "Why the hell did I do that" Then it gets offered to you again and you go through the same process. I started taking more and more to re-enact the first experience and you can almost achieve that. Then the come down begins and you dose up again. Nearly ev ery user I've spoken to tells about the time they "over did it" or binged. Mine was about 18 months ago. I managed a 5 days stint of being high, it all rolled into one huge day, i didn't know day or night, I looked like shit, my eyes were sunken, my face was grey, I'd chewed my tonge, cheaks and lips, I could taste blood and I finally slept. Then I started hilucinating people, objects, moving walls, voices etc... It was the beginnings of psycosis. So 2 days later, I binged again to escape my mind-set, this time I smoked it, not just ate it. This time it was on my own too, not with friends as normal. After this binge, the hilusinations became worse and worse and I wanted to binge again to escape it, again. I called the drug and alcohol help line and they re-assured me the psycosis would disappear in a matter of days, up to a week. It did and I have used again but only in small amounts and recreationally with people around me. It's normally in conjunction with ecstacy to enhance the nights events. I know how addicts become addicts now and if it wasn't for me hearing of the drug and alcohol help line, I wouldn't have stopped. My friend Adam is now in the same situation, but his psycosis is from ice, a much more pure and potant version of meth.
Feel free to e-mail me if you have any more questions or want to know anything at all.
Hope this helped you. keep in mind, everyone's body works and reacts differently, there is no one path to addiction and like one person put it, disease.
