Can emphetamines make you go crazy?
February 6, 2014 at 7:15 pm (This post was last modified: February 6, 2014 at 7:17 pm by paulpablo.)
I know meth amphetamine is known to make people go crazy, but someone I know takes speed.
He's been taking it for about 15 years or so, he's already had what he describes as psychosis from it but still takes it pretty much every week and he does act strange but will insist that it's not because of speed and insist he isn't addicted.

Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with amphetamine addicts before? Are they all annoying arrogant pricks or is it just the guy who I know?


By the way the title is supposed to say amphetamines, not emphatamines


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

Yes, depending on dosage. Your friend is likely in denial.

They can cause depression and they gave a friend of mine an anxiety attack.

I think all that emphatamines do is make you emphatic.

Amphetamines, on the other had, are pretty well bad news all the way round.
