Have you ever felt too uncomfortable or weird (not in a nice way) after taking stims? You could have been “overamping.” Stimulants like crack/cocaine and meth can lead to side effects that are unwanted and uncomfortable or potentially dangerous. Knowing what it is and what to do can help you be prepared if it happens.
Overamping happens when the effects of a stimulant become overwhelming, distressing, and/or dangerous.Overamping is specific to “overdosing” on stims like crack, cocaine, or meth. Using the word “overamping” helps to differentiate from an opioid overdose since they are different in how it happens, how it appears, and how to respond.
