hi dr i've smoked meth ice and weed i feel sick what do i do? help plz thanks

Question

I've been smoking meth every single day since.June of 2005. It makes me feel sick now...When i try to stop it i get even more sick. How do I quit?

Answer 1

Please STOP: at this point there's nothing to do. If you feel terrible you may need to go to the emergency room Please stop doing this in the future

Answer 2

Meth ice: is the purest form of methamphetamine, followed by "base" and then "speed" The flood of monoamines to the brain produces an intense rush. Very addicting, extremely dangerous drug. By now ( you posted this question 11 hours ago) the drug has likely worn off. I suggest you add this to the list of things that you should never try again. I can't tell you how many stroke victims I've cared for due to it

Answer 3

Too tempting: Meth is very addictive. The temptation would be too great. You would eventually go back to using it. To quote a great source, "don't be unequally yoked.".

Answer 4

Possibly: But unlikely. Aa has a great saying: sit in a barber shop chair long enough and you eventually get a haircut. Your friends provide too many triggers and sometimes the desire to be with your friends is really the desire to use drugs.

Answer 5

Bad idea: The risk of relapse would be very high.

Answer 6

NO: For someone newly sober I have yet to see this workout, addiction is in the brain, and the addicted brain responds to triggers that a person is not consciously aware of, by the time you are aware, already to late. I'm not saying everyone relapses but they either do or "messed up in head" for a while, having a sponsor or sober friend and picking up the phone asap can be a life saver.

Answer 7

Quitting meth: Methamphetamine is a powerfully addictive stimulant that dramatically affects the central nervous system. You can become addicted after trying it just once! for more information regarding meth treatment centers in your community, please call: 1 (888) 287-6189. Good luck!

Answer 8

Meth withdrawal: Methamphetamine (meth) exposure is primarily associated with deleterious effects to dopaminergic neurons. Repeated passive injections of the drug given in a single day or over a few days cause significant and long-term depletion of Dopamine and serotonin such depletion causes severe and rapid symptoms of depression amotivation suicidal thoughts. Meth becomes the sustaining chemical for the brain.

Answer 9

Meth can be fatal: Methamphetamine (meth) kills over time, through damaging the brain and other organs by constricting blood vessels (decreasing nutrient & oxygen flow), raising body temperature (overheats organs), etc... Meth can kill rapidly by fatal heart rhythms, heart attacks, and strokes. Meth also causes psychotic and aggressive behavior, which can lead to deadly accidents or being shot dead by the police.

Answer 10

Depends: Methamphetamine, an fda approved agent, has a high abuse potential. Using this drug for other that it's intended purposes can cause serious medical issues some of which may be fatal. In the same way that smoking tobacco and drinking alcohol can be fatal with long term use, so can methamphetamine use. Lack of sleep, poor nutrition, impaired judgment can all lead to self-destruction and even death.

Answer 11

Yes: Methamphetamine may be used for adhd (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) and obesity.

Answer 12

Yes.: Methamphetamine is almost always a drug of abuse. It is however fda-approved, in the form of methamphetamine hydrochloride) for oral use in treating both add and obesity, under the brand name "desoxyn". It is little used compared to other add meds. It's also used at times by some drs for resistant forms of depression. Used strictly as rx'd, it can be safe & effective. But be careful=>speed kills!

Answer 13

Effects can be fatal: Methamphetamine (meth) kills over time, through damaging the brain and other organs by constricting blood vessels (decreasing nutrient & oxygen flow), raising body temperature (overheats organs), etc... Meth can kill rapidly by fatal heart rhythms, heart attacks, and strokes. Meth also causes psychotic and aggressive behavior, which can lead to deadly accidents or being shot dead by the police.
