Amphetamine is a stimulant. Define the effects however you want to. Push out anecdotes that are pure BS, like "as you take it more, every day, you don't get as much heart rate increases." No shit, that's because you also aren't getting the other effects - its just simple tolerance, where all the effects decrease unless the dosage is increased. Stimulants are going to make anyone feel euphoric, have increased brain and body activity. If that's no longer happening for you, guess what, you have tolerance. To avoid rebound effects, you continue taking the low, ineffective maintanence dosage. Because if you stopped, you'd feel exactly the opposite for quite a while until your body detoxes from the addiction. Slow, sluggish, etc. This maintanence dose puts your body into the same state as if you weren't taking anything at all, if the physiological dependency were gone. Baseline. Amphetamines aren't somehow special for one person and not for another, lest we are talking about actual brain damage. They will make any person more apt to do mental and physical tasks. So keep on excusing the fact that you are doing a hard drug as a substitute for actually learning to learn. Being on speed your whole life is not a good thing. It's gross that this thread is being subverted to claim non-medical anecdotes about how gentle a hard drug is, and "once you get used to it, its no big deal!" It's fucking speed! Of course it makes you feel great and more energetic. Thats what stimulants do!
