After about twenty minutes, I found the effects starting to kick in. I decided to put on some thrash music to facilitate the speeding process. Within the next thirty minutes, my eyes were huge, and I was sweating bullets, but sitting perfectly still, save for a leg I nervously bounced to keep myself occupied. While I was online, my friend Lacy wanted to know if I wanted to see her new car. I decided why not and we ended up riding around town for about two hours. When I got home, I wrote some more on my novel for another hour, and by that time I was starting to crash. Through sheer willpower, I stayed awake and just as I was bout to nod off, I took the next pill. In a matter of minutes, I was cranking again, sweating like a pig and talking to my friends online.
After another two hours of reading, I noticed that the second pill I took didn't quite get me as high, so i cut one of my remaining two pills in half and took one of the halfs. That did it. I started talking about life and philosophy with a fury I had not known before. I was able to have three conversations about the aspects of reality while keeping everything straight. After an hour and a half, i noticed the effect start to fade agian, so I took the other half the the pill I chopped in two.
Now, I had not slept in two days prior to taking the benzphetamine, so I was rather sleep deprived already. I was starting to see colors, and smell the fatigue soaking through my pores. The experience was great. I have yet to know exactly what came over me, but now I had turned to talking about the origins of human life over the internet in a rather large chatroom. After that talk was over, I noticed I had one last pill left, and in the spirit of trying things new, I took that last one. It was the straw that broke the camels back. I started twitching, seeing colors, hearing voices, and seeing people out of the corner of my eye, even though I was all alone. I cranked for the rest of the night, stopping once to wash the horrible smell off of me, and again to make a pot of coffee.
Unfortunately, I doubt I'm going to do it again, I liked it too much, and I'm not willing to risk addiction. I watched the sun come up for the third time, cracked a brew, and proceeded to write this. I've never felt quite safe doing this, but in the end I feel I made the right decision to try speed for myself instead of basing my opinions soley on what I've heard about the drug.
