Has long-term AMPHETAMINE use changed me negatively (please read)?

Did speed change me? There are two possible reasons why I was so aggressive, irritable, and cold.

Unfortunately, I am very aggressive, so I have extreme aggression problems… I am very irritable, fed up with everything, aggressive and somehow cold.. Because of this, I have daily arguments… at every little thing, I could explode with hate.. unfortunately

The thing is, I'm mentally screwed… I have a really not-so-great past (5-6 years of severe bullying, two traumas, arguments between parents, loss of loved ones, three breakups, and unrequited love).

But besides all that, I also consumed amphetamines (speed) daily for a long time when I was 15 and 16. I took it every day or every other day. I was really addicted. It lasted 7-8 months.

But I only became so aggressive after using speed… when I got "clean". I've been clean for about 130 days. The hardest thing was staying clean until now. When I was using, i.e. smoking every day, I once had a very heavy overdose and even suffered physical damage (seizures…).

Is it from speed, from the past, or a combination of both? What do you think?

Amphetamines are known for breaking the psyche, of course, you can’t judge online as well whether it’s about your consumption, but I would say that consumption may be a trigger, especially if you consume it so often over such a long period of time. I wouldn’t say it’s withdrawal symptoms, because the speed withdrawal makes you more depressive and puts you in anxiety, I guess you should just stay clean now if it gets too bad. Please contact a doctor who doesn’t tell your parents or the youth office.

Strangers from the Internet cannot judge this with certainty. It might be best to talk to a specialist about it.

These are severe withdrawal symptoms, you need a substitute under medical supervision.

The drugs cause your brain metabolism as well as negative experiences that are not well processed.

You should make an appointment with the psychiatrist. You may suffer from serotonin deficiency. He can promote aggressions.

Drugs don’t change anything – that was basically all there before – drugs are just a catalyst, though one of the ones takes life.

Drugs definitely change something, it comes naturally to the drug, but hard drugs often destroy the psyche, for example, amphetamines can trigger psychoses, which are also known for breaking the psyche, I have experience with it or I had a psychosis through my meth consumption, at some point you arrive at the time when you can’t get it out of bed in the morning, because you’re mentally like that.

The psychosis you had before your drug use has only increased it or brought it to the outbreak.

Someone who is all right and who is happy and satisfied, why should he come to the idea to take drugs from which he knows they can destroy his life?

Because it comes to the drug,LSD can also trigger psychosis, which rarely happens, but in amphetamines there is a so-called “amphetamine psychosis” which is triggered by the dopamine excess.

If drugs do that in principle, how does it happen that there are people who pull the stuff just as pure (LSD, heroin, cannabis – the whole range) and at some point just stop and are normal as if never had been anything?

There are plenty of people in which everything is okay that lead a good life that can then start with such drugs,the statement is incorrect because the dopamine excess in amphetamines can trigger psychoses and schizophrenia,if you are too stubborn to believe me, just google it after,nun I ask you not to spread any false information for your next time on such issues as laie.
