Speed makes you feel as if you just have energy coming out your ears..it gives you that feeling of being invincible..that you can do anything..depending on how much you took and over how long you took it,it could last 7-10 hours..the ‘highs’ can be euphoric but the ‘come down’ can be extreme…severe dehydration,paranoia and general uneasyness around people…it makes your heart race so it can cause heart attack.It also can damage the liver(long term use )as the liver is the body natural filter!

Speed is amphetamine although very pure speed is only dextroamphetamine, a very powerful central nervous system stimulant. Also methamphetamine is NOT speed, some people do call it speed but it is NOT. However the side effects, risks, effects, and benefits are basically the same for dextroamphetamine and methamphetamine. Amphetamines act primarily one three neurotransmitters in the brain- serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine. These are stimulating neurotransmitters.
Amphetamine effects:
hypervigilance, enhanced concentration, increased motivation, euphoria, increased talkativeness, positive mood, sense of well-being, reduction in depression, increased sex drive, wakefulness/increased energy, reduced appetite (anorexia), dilated pupils (mydriasis), blurred vision, dizziness, insomnia, anxiety, agitation, and impotence.
More serious effects include:
Increased aggressiveness, psychosis, uncontrollable movements (twitching, tremors), gran mal seizures (convulsions), rapid heart rate (tachycardia), hypertension (high blood pressure), rise in body temperature (hyperthermia), inappropriate or dangerous sexual contact (unprotected sex).
Amphetamine is metabolized by the liver but it is unlikely to be damaging to the liver. Amphetamines have significant cardiac properties and they can stress the heart too much. Although rare, large doses can basically cause the heart to “blow up.” People using amphetamines recreationally have a much higher risk of heart attack (in an ER doctors typically assume a person under 40 having a heart attack has used cocaine or an amphetamine). Large doses of amphetamine are highly neurotoxic and will burn up brain cells and may shrink the brain over time. Typically amphetamine, depending on how it is taken (orally, smoked, snorted, injected) typically lasts 4-6hrs.
Thizz (you must live in The Bay area), better known as ecstasy is substituted amphetamine, its chemical name is methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA). It has effects similar to “classic” amphetamine and psychedelics.
Most MDMD tablets are NOT pure can have many contaminants. Often other drugs including amphetamine, methamphetamine, ketamine, methadone, DXM, heroin, cocaine, ephedra, pseudoephedrine, antidepressants (Prozac, Zoloft), LSA, psilocybin, methylphenidate are in ecstasy tablets. In some cases ecstasy tablets have no MDMA.
Mixing MDMA and amphetamine is a terrible idea. They both have many of the same actions and risk of side effects, hospitalization, and death greatly increase. Also since MDMA is rarely pure it may contain other substances that interact with amphetamine. The risk of hospitalization drastically increases with polysubstance abuse (using more than one drug at a time) and almost all deaths are from polysubstance abuse.
If a person takes pure MDMA without any other drugs (prescription or illegal) is actually very safe. Research indicates pure MDMA is safer than marijuana (THC), alcohol, tobacco, or prescription drug abuse.
Amphetamines are used medically for ADHD, narcolepsy, weight loss, treatment resistant depression, hypersomnia, and some other psychiatric or neurological problems.
Amphetamine medications
Adderall (mixture of dextroamphetamine and amphetamine)
Dexedrine (dextroamphetamine)- this is the purest form of “speed”
Desoxyn (methamphetamine)- “meth”
Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine)- this drug breaks down into dextroamphetamine.
Amphetamines are schedule II drugs in The United States and MDMA is a schedule I drug meaning it is illegal.
