You seem like a bright guy. Don't get into Crystal Meth. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the list of most addictive substances known to man goes like this: 1.Nicotine 2.Methamphetamine 3.Crack.... You get the idea.
And don't give me bullshit about not having an "addictive personality". It's always the shy nervous ones who find a quick fix for their problems who become raging alcoholics or benzyl alcoholics.
Meth gives you a high so amazing that nothing in real life can compare. I mean, it feels better than that first kiss, that first roller coaster ride, that first time at the stadium. Really it does. How can anything else compare to a powder that can give you all that instantly?
I'm not saying don't use it, or that it's going to do damage from a few times, but I can't tell you how many seemingly normal, whitebread straight edge kids I've seen flicking needles a week after doing meth. But don't take my word for it.
Don't use your experience on meth as a guideline to how you want to feel or what medicine you want to be on. EVERYONE feels how you did on meth. If you want to be dead or in jail quick, or get a random assortment of movement disorders then become a hedonist.
I would stick with the SSRI's and maybe add a stimulant like ritalin or something. Just don't be a pussy and take the easy way out, be a man. Trust me you'd probably never know but I was painfully shy too, and I couldn't even imagine how I'd be now. Hang in there.
