This is the dissemination of my use of stimulants, in this segment my focus is describing the drug generically sold as 'Phentermine'.

The real Phentermine is always potent when the formulation is normal not XR, and it always has potential for satisfaction in that respect. But it can be a double edged sword.

I once on my first experience very foolishly took 3 of the max dose pills (37.5 a pc.) And casually hung out in my room waiting for some kind of rush. I got ten fold more than that, my head was about to explode and my chest was EXTREMELY tight with a rapid pounding heart beat, I could also tell my heart valves were misfiring. I was prostrated on the floor trying to maintain and literally felt close to death so I prayed for Jesus to help me and give me strength, after some time I gradually recovered but had a lingering migraine that would not cease for 2 days.

As for taking a logical dose for my size, a single max dose pill is plenty, and tends to give off the same boost as taking other -phetamines. So one 37.5 for me does the same as a 20 of Dexamphetamine or a 30 of Methylphenidate. I've noticed it works best with a half full stomach as the pill needs something to break it up but then its still absorbed all at once.

I use this substance for focus and alternative ADHD management, it also curbs depressive behaviors like feeling dissociated with people and anxious over things of which I can not control. Maybe because my brain has switched to a higher wavelength and am less fearful?
