Meth. He said it gives him energy to get things done. I told him he's stupid for doing that. Should I tell his family before he ends up ruining his life?

Microdosing doesn't generally do any ha---

Meth.


Oh fuck that, yeah, get him some help. If he needs some energy, tell him to grab some caffiene, it's way safer and more effective. (Similar in addictiveness, but the addiction just makes you feel shit if you don't get some, rather than ruining your life; also caffiene is FAR more affordable, as well as legal.)

I mean do what you think is best. I know people who used small doses of meth to study. It's literally no different from taking Adderall. The problem is if they start to use other routes, especially IV.

Most likely. People who talk about drugs like "it helps me so much with work and focus. It gives me energy" have a very high chance of getting addicted. Doing cocaine (or yes, even meth) on weekends is one thing. Meth daily to get through the day, yeah it'll work wonders at first until it doesn't.

Yeah the weird thing about drugs is that it's fine as a party thing but when you work it into your daily schedule you're really flirting with addiction. Tellin the dudes dad is some sucker shit tho.

This. Cannabis is pretty much the only drug with any noticable effects you can use all day every day and remain productive, and even that very much depends on your personality - not everyone can do it. (I'm not including things like nicotine and caffiene here, which are kinda in a different basket altogether.)

Or he could make that friend double down from stubbornness. It's basic human nature. Actually trying to help convince them not to I'd agree with, but this course of action will just lead to the friend never trusting OP again

Tell him to go to a physician and get an Adderall script. No sense in partaking in any of the risks meth involves.

Hell, even a change in diet and sleep schedule will help

Which isn't quite the same thing as actually condoning use. It's a bit worrying that he doesn't want to try and help someone out who's putting themself at risk, but that's far from outright condoning meth use.

If you want something legit to criticize Darklit for, criticize him for being sigless.

No, it just makes the problem worse rather than corrects it.

TC could have helped said friend. Instead, said friend now knows never to trust TC again.

My advice would have been to be supportive and try to convince them not to. Not make things worse and probably stir up all kinds of shit in their personal life. Now said friend's life may be worse because of constant arguments with his parents due to them no longer trusting him.

Find a better solution. Snitching never helps.

Unless he's a licensed therapist or physician, TC is not qualified to help. You are more likely to cause more damage by trying to help him yourself than you are if you just put it in the hands of someone else who is more responsible for him and/or qualified.

Your attitude is a great way to get someone killed. Shut the fuck up.

TC objectively did the right thing. Period.

Quite the assumption you have there. Most parents don't abandon their kid because of a mistake. They try to help them or get them help from someone who knows what they're doing.

That being said, yes I would still say the same thing.

Would you say the same thing if he tried to talk to his friend about it, and because he didn't know how to actually handle the situation he only made it worse and his friend just started using more until he overdosed and died?

And friendship 301 is being able to see when your friend needs help that you can't provide and making sure he gets it even if the friend doesn't want it.

Time to move up from the entry-level friendship classes if you think "just talking to him" is the best option.

depending on the parents, i dont think this is a catch-all situation. some parents would react extremely impetuously and just kick him out then and there, or just straight up ruin their relationship.

bottom line is tho: your friend needs help and needs help now before its too late. meth is a terrible drug.

I mean, it's literally Adderall when taken orally. Try not to be so emotional.


You're betting your life that a meth cook is dosing it accurately though. You can't compare a highly regulated commercial drug to something produced and sold illicitly.

When taken orally, which I'm assuming is what he means by microdosing, it's not differentiable from Adderall.

No, microdosing requires more control over the intake, oral ingestion isnt as easily measured due to the density. Microdosing amphetamines is best done nasally, as crushed and powdered substance is precisely represented. Solid meth/Molly/coke/etc yields a suprising volume of powder. Its easier to snort a .05 as opposed to assuming that crumb is the same (but if crushed that assumed crumb would be like 3x the powder)
