"Speed":  Methylamphetamine




"Speed":  Methylamphetamine

Andy Dittrich English 102

     Since I have started school at U.N.R, I have been expose to a more
variety of drugs than high school.  Speed (Methylamphtamine) is a drug that I
totally despise.  I was in shock because I did not realize how many students
were addicts to this drug.  I have always known what this drug does to people
because I know someone that is addict to speed.  The drug is one of the most
addicting drugs out there and I hope the information I  have researched on can
make you never think twice about trying this addicting drug.
     Speed is a stimulant, a drug that can make one feel cheerful and wide
awake for days after days.  Students use the drug for intensive study habits or
during depressing moments of school.  On Speed, users never want to eat because
the drug shrivels up their stomach that causes massive weight loss.  One of the
reasons' women use the drug is to lose weight, which is an extremely unhealthy
way of doing it.  What Speed  does is it effects the middle nervous system, and
stimulates the brain.  The drug causes insomnia, restlessness, and a fake sense
of acting normal.  People either snort the drug up the nose or smoke it through
the mouth.  After staying up for days on Speed the drug where's off and a person
will sleep for days, there is a larger fatigue and one will be so damn depressed.

     I stopped talking to a friend because he was so addicted to this
horrible drug called Speed.  One thing I noticed is he was a totally different
person when he was using speed.  Whenever he was high on the drug he was a great
guy with all this incredible energy, nothing would ever possibly make him upset.
Though when the drug wore off he was so grouchy that no one could stand a single
bit of being around him.  Every little thing you did when he was coming down on
Speed annoyed him and it made me wonder if I was wrong at times.  I remember a
group of us walking through the mall one day and we were teasing him about some
girl he was courting at the time.  He had not been on the drug at the time and
was upset he couldn't find any because he was so addicted.  The next thing you
know he was trying to fight me in the middle of the whole mall.  My other
friends had to hold him down on the ground because he was so out of control.
