Speed is the generalized term for amphetamines. Amphetamine classifies the chemical Amphetamine but also any chemical that is similar in chemical buildup to an Amphetamine, which include, but are not limited to: Acetedron, Allodene, Adipan, Sympatedrine, Psychedrine, Isomyn, Isoamyne, Mecodrin, Norephadrane, Novydrine, Elastonon, Ortedrine, Phenedrine, Profamina, Propisamine, Sympamine, and Simpatedrin.

Methamphetamine in powder form is a hygroscopic, hydrochloride salt structure of the amphetamines. Methamphetamine is the active chemical in the drug Desoxyn, which is used to treat ADD and ADHD.

Speed is what its name implies, it speeds things up. It's just a stimulant, a strong one at that. Fight or flight adrenaline, yadda yadda yadda.

Someone might wanna go ahead and correct some of those amphetamine names, I typed them by hand so I may have incorrectly spelled a few.

[Oneironaut]

Speed is also another word for velocity.

Well, you have to understand methadrines are used legally to lose weight and other things. With that said, they're also harmful to the body and can be addictive.

Drugs are bad. I don't do drugs. Just weed.

[Fabolous]

Don't snort yellow speed or eat yellow snow :D

Keyword : Yellow

[LIP]

Speed is amphetamine, and can be called many things, but meth is short for crystall meth .... now thats a scum drug...

Speed can be many colours, in pills or power to snort or inject.

[HiddenBeauty]

I have led a sheltered life LIP and have only seen pink and white in powder form.I have also only snorted and bombed speed,many moons ago now.

[cannabis campbell]

It is different they are different prices.

No, you're scum. And Meth is equally as scummy as Amphetamines...

And one user said it best... although it's obvious...

Speed is a stimulant that gives you the fight or flight response.

There... to clear up whatever the thread starter was asking... you have no way of knowing exactly what you're friend is talking about because he might just be an idiot who knows not what he is even fucking doing. Ask him what it is EXACTLY and you might find your anwser... is it Meth or is it just Amphetamines? If it's crystally... it's "crystal meth". If it's a powder... it's probably not... and if it's in a pill or something... then ask and ask again until you find out.

[cannabis campbell]

How is he Scum? just because you're a meth addict?

[andruejaysin]

a quick Q.

is speed just another name for meth? or is it something different?
Slang names may be a little different in Australia, but in the US speed can mean either meth or amphetamine. Powder or crystals are almost certainly meth, at least in the states, because the key ingredient to make amphetamine was banned a few years back. Someone stated methamphetamine hcl is hydroscopic, it is actually amphetamine hcl which this is true of. That's why amphetamine is almost always found as the sulfate.

Yellow powder? Is that like Vivarian (a brand of caffeine pills) or something passed off as meth?

[CocaCola]

LOL, I'm not a Meth addict silly.

[HiddenBeauty]

One fact I know about speed and that is that it is not good for your teeth :D

[larghetto]

The reason why you are seeing these strange colours when you go to buy a bag of speed is due to one of the following:

It isnt Amphetamine; its either another chemical (maybe inactive) or a chemical chemically similar to Amphetamine (like said above).
Or
Amphetamine or Methamphetamine is usually made in someones bath using sub par lab tools and ingredients, it is not uncommon to buy speed that has other bits and pieces left behind in the synthesis. E.g. Red (Red Phosphorous left over).

[hempnbass]

I think speed and meth are basically the same thing... speedballs are meth+coke that you inject, though

[orange floyd]

uh no speedball is coke and heroin injected together, or in a more general form its just any downer combined with an upper

[BestTonicIsChronic]

Speed is most common forms of amps, then u got meth which is also called ice.

[nuggetgirl]

I live in meth county usa. Speed to me is a generalized term, If someone asked me around here if I wanted to do speed it could be one of a few things.

1-Bathtub crank. Usually made by mexicans in their bathtub, and consists of a brownish color. Snorted it will hurt like hell, and smoked will burn dirty.

2-Anhydrous. A form of speed that is made with the fertilizer anhydrous. In my area this is the most common. It is normally a dirty white color and Burns dirty when smoked. It also hurts like hell to snort. B/c anhydrous is made mostly by amatuers in the woods somewhere, it is left with alot of acid in it. Making it a more visual rush than other speed.

3-Crystal Meth. Crystal meth is probably to me the best of all the speeds. It produces a cleaner less trippy rush. It burns clear in a bulb and smokes for a long time. It also only burns slightly when snorted. Good crystal meth should look like a clear piece of glass or glass shards.

4- Red phosphorus. This is a little bit different speed b/c it is made with a slow wet cook instead of a short dry cook. Red phosphorus is commonly found on the back of a matchbook. A dirty burning, nose stinging speed. The high is good. It differs from pink to dark red.

***Keep in mind, with meth you never know what EXACTLY was cooked into it. Drano, starter fluid and the like are constantly used in street drugs to be able to reach the high demand with limited funds, and lack of time.***

This is all my opinion of course. I was addicted bad and as of this month haven't touched the shit for a whole YEAR. I'm sure there's more types around, but I'm sure these are the norm for the typical american community.
My reccomendation is to not try it if you never have. It keeps things much simpler that way.

[CocaCola]

Thanks for the info... wow, someone responded without being an idiot.

[andruejaysin]

Meth which melts blue contains an antihistamine which wasn't removed from the pills, if it melts green that's copper, comes from iodine obtained from disinfectaents containing copper sulphate. Red is most likely simply dye from the psuedofed. Meth is probably best avoided, but you'll likely have to learn the hard way, I did.

People do drugs made directly from fertilizer? :confused: Man, it never amazes me the lengths people will go for a buzz.

Congrats on your recovery. May you have a full and happy life without that garbage. You are doing something I don't know I would have the strength to do. Wow, do I respect you.

[andruejaysin]

^^They do. A very corrosive fertilizer called anhydrous (water-free) ammonia. Will burn the fuck out of your skin, and the fumes will fuck up your lungs. Stuff boils at about 30 below zero, so it will build enough pressure to make some containers explode. Fun stuff, huh?

[krustythfreakinclown]

Holy shit. I'll stick with booze, weed and the occasional bit of coke.

[420mory]

Speed makes me paranoia and stressed and has it some really nasty side effects. I have seen people take it too much too often and that didn't look healthy to me - to use an understatement.
They might use amphetamins or derivatives as medicines, but still the addictive property of this substance seems dangerous to me.
But like everything it is always a matter of moderation, it won't do much harm in a low dossage used once in a while. I will stick to some red bull, ephedra, caffeine or X to get in a party mood... :cool:

[candy oasis]

speed is plain pure amphetimine (sp) crystal meth is sim. in structure but not in effects on body, meth is much more addictive and harmful for you can cause you to pick at your skin and altogether can practically destroy your life. there are many things related to speed , coke is called something like cocamphetimine sim. in structure but slightly different ain smae family, and crack is coke freebased which causes a different reaction to you cause it goes through a chemical reaction (combustion) makes it more addictive and such, ridilin, concerta is methylphenidate, also sim. in structure but still differnt effects, and there are others all in the same family all do essentially the same things but have variations of effect and how much you enjoy it all quicken your heart rate and may make you feel sped up. speed can be reffered to pure basic amphetemine (but its still often cut with shit cause dealers wanna make lots of profit) but it can also be used as a general term for anything in the amphetimine family of chems, your friend is probably not talking about coke or meth or he will use the terms coke/blow, meth/gib and or other slang terms. sp he would be refferring to speed but ti will be cut with other shit, not referring to other drugs although maybe but he could be inclusding like baking powder or drywall or some dumb thing such as, or it could be cut with ice, crystal, meth, gib whatver you wanna refer to it as because that stuff is more addictyive and willl get people hooked fasater
