In reply to psychosis and amphetamines, posted by Johnnieboy on November 18, 2000, at 15:44:44
> I just recovered from a psychosis caused by my frequent use of amphetamines (XTC and speed). Having been clean for almost a year now, I wonder if even sporadic use (say, once every three months) can be dangerous. And how about cocaine?

I suffered very bad effects from heavy amph. use and I believe permanent nervous system damage. They are highly addictive and stronger than us in my humble opinion. What is the reason you feel you need to take the amphetamines and or cocaine? Once you realize the reason find other healthy ways to deal with the problems. Maybe see a therapist if the problems are too tough to handle-I did. Now, I take psychotropics that are safer.
