speed pshycosis

Alright so I am 1 year clean from all drugs and I think that I have speed(amphetamine) pshycosis the last time that I sniffed speed,I overdosed..I did like a gram of speed for the first time and the normal dose is around 30mg.... when I did that stupid thing..I could hear voices and a little girl talking and telling me : dont do drugs,they are bad. I was scared and I went to sleep before all the effects kicked in.. then I woke up the next day and I made imaginary friends and an imaginary gf.I still talk to them like everyday. I told my friend about this and he told me that 2 of his friends took speed.one of them could see dinosaurs,the other one could see elephants walking around the city.he also told me that pshycosis can develop into schyzophrenia has anyone ever had experience with speed pshycosis? how long did it last?

You may be a little retarded and the drugs bring that out to light

I think you definitely should see a doctor about this before it gets any worse. It's obvious that the speed triggered schizophrenic-like symptoms in you (ignore the people saying that it never happens), and a doctor will be able to get you back to normal. I'm sorry that you're suffering with this. You really need to get back to a normal life man.

If your over a year clean and still have symptoms I'm guessing its past the speed and its time to see a doctor.

I have a lot of experience with amphetamine psychosis. I also have lots of experience with insomnia and staying awake for days sober so amphetamines are bad drugs for me.

Anything past 48hours and the carpet starts to slip out from under you, even power naps are enough to make you at least functional but once you cross that 48 hour mark you risk acting a fool.

I've done so much retarded shit staying up 2+ days that I know I would never do in my right mind.

The worst amphetamine psychosis I had lasted 4 days and nights where there were coordinated raids and people trying to break into my house every hour, an entire subreddit devoted to people filming their raid on my house and I was on the local news (this was all in my head)

Eventually it got so bad I thought people were kicking the door and had knives and motorcycles and I swear to god I saw the lock on the door UNLOCK so I picked up a JUG of isopropyl alcohol and DUMPED that mother fucker all around the kitchen and door and then opened the door myself and held a lighter in my hand.

Nobody was outside it was just the wind THAT ENTIRE TIME. I nearly burned my own house down.

Ambien is the best drug for amphetamine psychosis.. lots of Ambien.

 you would need to have been predisposed by any number 
of other factors already.

Something I've noticed about meth users is that some of them develop symptoms of schizophrenia after either long term use or massive doses, but mostly in people who are predisposed to schiz disorders.

My first love had some mild symptoms that were unnoticeable before meth use, but after a few months of addiction she began experiencing symptoms very similar to the ones you've described, i.e. talking to people that aren't there. That was almost 10 years ago, and her condition has only gotten worse. Now she is gone and will never come back.

I'm going to have to second everyone's advice to get medical help, immediately, and if it doesn't seem to be working get a second opinion. It can be permanent, I've seen it happen and it was horrible. Hope you get better man, a mind is a terrible thing to waste
