Meth. is not something I've ever experimented with. I see the effects it has on people but none of those through close friendships. I suspect my boyfriend is using something I think meth. We have been together 5 years and have 2 kids. He has always been a bit moody and sleep always been an issue. I've even suspected a possible bi-polar disorder. But recently he's not eating, sleeping, agitated easily, and seems to always be in a hurry and talks very quickly. I now suspect something else is going on. How can one tell if their parter is a user?? Am I at risk by sleeping with him or being intimate with him, such as chemicals being passed through semen? Someone please help me.
sodium bicarbonate is a chemical that can be ingested, but it can also lead to poisoning in taken improperly... not sure a meth user is likely of the right mind to avoid the potential convulsions, muscle weakness, and explosive diarrhea that can come from bicarb poisoning
baking soda also good for non toxic cleaning of sink and good additive for your toothpaste to take stain off teeth. However, I dont like my hygeinist using it to polish after cleaning. It gets all around teeth and not a good feeling.
My soon to be ex-husband was doing meth behind my back. I was a total rookie when it came to knowing the signs of any drug use, never having known anyone who did drugs. I noticed the same types of behaviors vcnessa mentioned, but also couldn't figure out why all the "stick type" pens in my house were missing the ink cartridge and my husbands face and arms were full of scabs. He tried to tell me poison ivy. I finally found aluminum foil with burn marks on it and scrapes "just the size of a pen" on it.... People who do meth and have been on a binge ...are the scariest people in the world. Their temper is unbelievable. Not something you want children around, let alone yourself.
Take it from someone who was swung around by her hair and lifted off the floor by the hair while he was "crashing".
perform an experiment.....when you think he's high...leave the house a mess...more clutter than usual...tell him you want a nice quiet evening at home and rent some movies....now fix...like....chinese food for dinner...the whole while, makeing eye contact whenever possible-like you think something is up....drop little hints, like...are u okay? or what's up with you? stuff like that....and go to the habeeb store...local speedy mart...they sell little tiny glass tubes with little flowers in them...."crackers" use those to smoke out of....just put it on the table or shelf as a decoration....then play super dumb! here's the catch!
first off...."crackers" hate a mess....most of em'....he won't be able to let it go....
second...."crackers" have the attention span of a fruit fly...movies...sitting still...not happnin'...
third....FOOD TASTES LIKE CRAP!!!.....he won't want dinner....
fourth....eye contact will drive him nuts, and you'll see it...he'll freak out....
last....when he sees the "rose vase" a.k.a. pipe laying around...lol....he'll freak...or steal it. or both....lol....
either figure it out and lose the dude....if he's high....or start doing it too....or find out he isn't doing it, and its all good....if he is though...this will be the most amusing time you'll have for a long time to come...lmao...

Even though this post is over a year old you still have some nifty tricks on how to catch a meth head. The little glass tubes are a real tip off same as the ink pens innards constantly missing.

as describe by many people herein, it may be amphetamine use.. but another option may be that he is manic or psychotic.
does he have disordered thoughts? ie: says things to you that to him seem to make perfect sense, but action dont make sense.
is he hearing/seeing/smelling/feeling things that arent really there>
if he is using... you are not at risk of having any 'chemicals' passed on to you through bodiliy fluids, but if because of his suspected drug use or mania, he may be undertaking risktaking behaviour which may expose him to disease, such as blood bourne viruses, so please be mindful of this.
My husband of 14 yrs is a meth head it started about 3 yrs ago I found out about it 2 yrs ago and lat me tell u it is one of the hardest things I have ever been through I now know all the signs... when he first gets high he is super nice and always on the go he talks alot about nothing he will stay up all night cleaning the house I can never tell by the eyes if he is high or not I buy drug tsts all the time but I know what the results are before I even give the test I only do the test now when he makes me feel like im the one going CRAZY.Anyway he always has diarreah and vomiting when he is coming down his left leg is always moving even when he is asleep he is a real A** hole when he is coming off his high I dont know why I put up with it .It is just so hard because he is a good dad and our children love him so much I am at my wits end this drug is so evil and does alot of damage not only to the user but everyone around
dont wonder about it , ask him to to take a drug test , i dont know if theres home drug tests for meths , but if not see your doctor you have to confront no matter how mad he gets hes the father of your kids , its not just your problem to deal with anymore
