Struggling with Amphetamine Cravings in Recovery

hi there, i have been in recovery from heroin and cocaine abuse (other stuff but those were the main two) since December 2020 and i honestly haven't had cravings but every once and a while but right now I'm REALLY fiending for an amphetamine (pharms, i don't want meth at alllllll). I'm thinking about making a few inquiries among people i still know from that world bc it wouldn't be an all out relapse but I'm kinda teetering on this decision.

      They have documted the amount of arrests and those admitted to rehab for amphetamine.they have also documented the purity of it and the dips and spikes in the 2 graphs perfectly line up. The higher the purity, the more arrests and rehab admissions there were. So the point of "pharma lab grade", when you look at the data, is actually more of a chance of getting rehooked

        @4Getful1 yeah the pharms vs street meth is moreso to avoid the awful comedown and to avoid being awake for 3 days from just one shot/hit. I took some Vyvanse (only 80mg) last night and i was up til 4:30 but i did eventually sleep very well.

      It will not go well. Slippery slippery slope. The high is not worth it. Do something else!!! Call some sober people!!

      What are you craving about amphetamines, specifically?

        @vespera the euphoria and ability to talk to/be around people. I was getting that from taking tons of gabapentin at a time but i stopped that 2 weeks ago. Not much withdrawal but I'm extra triggered because i don't have that escape anymore.
