What is Speed Drugs?
Speed is actually amphetamine. There are many forms of it, such as dextroamphetamine (medicine) or methamphetamine (crystal meth). The most known form (for recreative use) is still amphetamine. It’s colloquially referred to as speed because it makes you ‘go fast’ and gives you a lot of energy. Amphetamine can also be called pep. Pep drugs are usually in powder form. Don’t think about Walter White percentages in this case. Amphetamine usually makes up less than 50% of speed. Pure speed may contain up to 75% amphetamine. But because many dealers cut the drug with mannitol, inositol or caffeine, the concentration of amphetamine in your speed becomes smaller and smaller.
Why does Speed cause Insomnia?
Speed, pep or amphetamine (whatever you want to call it) has a stimulant effect on your body making you unable to sleep. Amphetamine releases dopamine and norepinefrine, so called transmitters, in the brain. Normally speaking, these substances are already in your body and are gradually released in your brain. It’s just that with speed, the process goes many times faster than usual. Pep drugs also disrupt the breakdown of dopamine and norepinefrine. A surplus amount of these substances in your brain is the source of a huge amount of energy which results in insomnia. And then in some cases there is the added caffeine which only makes things worse.
