Ecstasy and Meth dangerous together?

This is for your next dance party, especially if you're taking your pet rat. Researchers in Sydney have tried – in rats - to see what happens when you give them ecstasy with other drugs.\n\nAlthough ecstasy is an amphetamine, people still take it along with methamphetamine – one of whose names is Ice. Methamphetamine can cause dependence and even psychosis and people have been known to buy what they thought were ecstasy tablets but actually contained methamphetamine.\n\nRats given both ecstasy and methamphetamine were more likely to develop a high body temperature – a serious side effect of ecstasy. The rats' brains were also more depleted of a brain transmitter called serotonin.\n\nThe researchers also gave the rats ecstasy plus THC - a chemical in cannabis. They found that when ecstasy was combined with very high doses of THC, the rise in temperature was lower as was the reduction in brain serotonin. But the doses were much higher than normal use.\n\nThe questions are whether these findings are applicable to humans.\n\nGiven the risks with methamphetamine and not knowing what's in a tablet, the safest option is to get your kicks another way. Like an evening in front of the tellie with a cup of tea. Just the job for adolescents eh?

Methamphetamine, a synthetic drug known as 'crystal meth', 'ice' or 'Tina', is even more addictive than crack cocaine or heroin.\n\nIn high doses, methamphetamine causes irritability, insomnia, confusion, hallucinations, anxiety, paranoia and increased aggression. In even higher doses, hypothermia and convulsions can cause death.\n\nWhen the body is stimulated by methamphetamine, the drug can cause irreversible damage. The increased heart rate and blood pressure damage blood vessels in the brain, which can cause strokes, or irregular heart beat, which can cause cardiovascular collapse and death. By vastly increasing the release of dopamine, methamphetamine appears to damage brain cells, eventually reducing the amount of dopamine available to the brain, causing symptoms similar to Parkinson's disease and severe depression, or both.

it depends of your metabolism. if you need to pass a kind of test or something you should know that ecstasy stays like a month in your body.

Speed is a slang word for amphetamines.  On the street crystal meth refers to a highly refined meth-amphetamine, where as "crank" is usually dirty and gross.  Real crystal meth looks like broken glass, where as "crank" is a white or yellowish (sometimes even brownish) powder.\n\nThis is the worst drug in the history of man, stop using it now.  Very very bad stuff, all of it from crystal to the yucky brown stuff!\n\nHow could you use this drug for 4 years and not know the difference, or what you were doing?

No, there's no coke in meth... a lot of times there is meth in coke but that is only because meth is more addictive and if a dealer puts a bit of meth in his coke it gets more people to come back to him more often...

Chrystal meth produces schizophrenia-like symptoms due to it's effect on the dopamine receptors. However, unless you are genetically vulnerable to the disorder and the STRESS of taking a stupid recreational drug creates trauma, these effects should be only temporary

I personally have never done meth, but my dad was a tweeker, my aunt is a tweeker, and so where two of my best friends. The town I'm from is a meth town. It runs rampant in the oilfield. It allows you to stay up hours on end until the job is done. (They don't shut down for to much) The effects are a lack of sleep and an increase in energy. Depending on how long they have been up and how much they have smoked, they will start seeing hallucinations. You get really board and have to find stuff to do. Like my two friends would clean your cars motor with Q-tips. Just because it would keep them busy. When they went to jail they both weighed in at about a hundred pounds. And one of them was about 280 lbs. in high school. This is because most people can't stand to eat when they are spun. They have a loss of appetite. From what I understand Meth makes you feel like your on top of the world, because you have this new found energy. Meth is bad because it's highly addictive. People will steal your shit to support their habit. It has overtaken heroin as the most addictive drug from what I understand. They have also declared Meth as an epidemic. Crazy huh. It now has the highest relapse rate. Parents will often loose their kids due to it and they don't even care. It also crystalizes your lungs. And forms divots in your brain from what I've heard. It's commonly refered to as the devil's drug. My dad has been sober for over 8 years now. And everytime he gets tired at work, he thinks oh man I wish I had an 8 ball, I'd be ganked then and could easily finish this job. Good luck with your report, I hope I helped a little.

mmm What kind? If it was Weed mail it to me if it was Tabs mail it to me if it was Ecstasy pill mail them( just kidding) but if it was crack or meth you need to tell your parents especially if he used to be on them bad he may need some help. Seriously though if it was any kind of dirty drugs get him some help. Both my parents, my husband, the father of 2 of my children,and 3 of my sisters are on drugs and it is a very sad feeling. I did not know my husband was on them until we had gotten married and money was missing. I mean I still love him but I pray for him every night. I never did drugs but as you see my life is surrounded by it and I thought when I got married I was through being around it. So please get him some help and pray for him.

Dangerous, no. Gateway, not exactly. My idea of a gateway drug is the drug that you first got high with. So in some cases it may be weed, in others it's cocaine and harder stuff. And as far as it's being dangerous, no one has ever overdosed on weed. It's only dangerous when you mix it with cocaine and other substances. My suggestion to you, Smoke 'em if you got 'em.

I think by eating healthy foods like fruits, vegatables, and high fiber foods (All Bran Cereal, etc.) will help purify your body of toxins.  This are seemingly foods that could help you.  I was a counselor of addicts for three years, however, I concentrated moderately on diet.  Be prepared to gain weight most likely, have lack of motivation, and constantly tired.  Keep in mind that you are moving toward being healthy.  These different aforementioned negative things are the biggest reasons meth users go back to the drug.  I commend you highly on taking on such a huge leap in your life.  No offense, and I ask you to take this jokingly.  In the next few months, as you look in the mirror, and you see a tired, slightly plump, hardly movitivated person, take comfort in knowing that you are healthy and alive.  I lost two people as a counselor to drugs, and it warms my heart to see you taking this step.  Stay the course!!

I think it can cause a positive reaction to methamphetamine (aka crystal meth, ice), and the drug test they may be using might test for that drug along with cocaine. I would ask the company that does the testing exactly what drugs were tested for the one that brought you up as positive. Are you a member of a union? It's time to seek legal guidance. If you can't afford a lawyer, then go to the free legal services in your city or town.

they are two completly different drugs. Ex is a "happy drug" it is a club drug. It has a mixture of different drugs in it generally. Meth is a drug that is HIGHLY addictive! It will eat at your skin, it comes in a crystal form that you burn and smoke. ex comes in a pill form also known as a "stack"\n\nbtw, ex will not make you do things that you don't remember.....maybe things you wish you hadn't done....but you will remember everything

The effects of meth use in a parent child relationship goes a lot further than concern the baby will get the drug into their system. Meth users have no business anywhwere near a child and that is why child protective services will remove the child without a second thought and any family court judge in the land would take away custodial rights. If you are in a situation like this do what is right for your baby because the baby can't protect themselves. Good luck.

I wouldn't suggest you do it... but if you are going to, i suggest you read up on the drug first... get to know what the risks are before doing it...\n\nI can tell you from first hand experience that prolonged use of Ecstasy can trigger depression, anxiety and panic attacks... you can become paranoid and then you may even feel like you want to hide away in isolation.\n\nRemember to drink enough water because you dont want to dehydrate but not too much water because you dont want to flood your brain...\n\nEcstasy may be fun when your up and high but when the come down starts to happen thats when you may feel a bit regrettful\n\nI hope this helps
