What people say about Amphetamines and anxiety
“Even taking pause from amphetamines for over a year or more doesn't seem to reset it for me. It works great for maybe a month or two when I'm back on them, then it's all negative side effects.”
“I feel good for about 40~ min and then I crash SO bad. I'm talking crippling anxiety”
“For me it's a non jiterry, euphoric and mentally calming version of caffeine... I absolutely LOVE amphetamine.”
“I use amphetamines occasionally for socialization (yeah, it's bad for you, and I don't recommend it, but I have my own reasons)”
