Low recreational doses of dextroamphetamine also give me dehydration, headaches, and muscle aches if I'm not properly hydrated or haven't eaten in a while. So that might've played a role. Methamphetamine is proven to be more neurotoxic than amphetamine even when accounting for its extra potency, though, so it should ideally only be taken infrequently, in very low doses, or not at all. There are some neuroprotective substances you can take beforehand to mitigate the damage, but it's probably not worth it.
