being on mind altering drugs in combat is generally considered a bad idea and frowned upon

that being said, steroids are fairly common in high speed units and that culture is slowly working it's way down into line units as well

I dont know about amphetamines. I think pilots take modrafinil now. Special forces like mexican supplements. Ephedrine used to be popular 10 years ago

What gun is that in pic?

Why not? I drug addicted armed forces might be useful. They are likely to follow orders without question regardless of the morality. Better performance if you're using stimulants.

Ded?

Speed has been in use ever since it was invented even when people didn't know what it was. I remember talking to a french paratrooper vet telling me how they use to give them "little bottles" before a combat jump that made them feel "bulletproof".

More recently, "supplement" abuse was pretty common, the prevailing idea was "don't get caught".

Not just steroids, adderall is abused and not just in the military. It really makes you wonder how many people are using one drug or another on a daily basis, I'm guessing more than you'd think.

Bad idea for multiple reasons, lots of mental illness that wasnt a problem before can be eacherbated by amphetamine s

Worse performance if your supply chain gets fucked for whatever reason.

Sporadic use of adderal is known to cause symptoms of schitzophrenia and psychosis in people that never had issues before.

Heres a good article about drugs being supplied in Vietnam.

PANZERCHOKOLADE

Adderall is an amphetamine, retard.

Are you telling me meth tweakers clearly don't have several different brands of fruit case going for them typically?

oh man makes me wanna throw in a big fat deeip.

Yes but only for non infantry

meth /= adderall

Reminds me of some e-slut that does youtube or such. Can't remember her name but i remember youtube recommending me drama videos about her. She got the same face as her , but she was wearing glasses.

Zapplesauce nigger

whats a mexican supplement?

Jumping beans in tequila.

Yes, ephedrine and dexedrine are most common

But he's fucking right, hell there are caffeine sensitive people that are fucked by shit simple as coffee. Eventually you will reach the crazy pointment with enough stimulants

After five minutes of research, I have results. The woman you are refering to calls herself sssniperwolf on youtube. She is also the woman on OP's pic.

Don't hadjis take a bunch of speed too? I wonder how much is there a connection between speed and the awful shit soldiers sometimes do. Not to absolve them, just curious how that might be a factor.

>Adderall, Adderall XR, and Mydayis are combination drugs containing four salts of the two enantiomers of amphetamine, a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant of the phenethylamine class.

>implying prime birthers should be in combat

They've been known to take whatever is on hand. Heroin to dull pain to keep fighting etc.

sssniperwolf is so hot, but so dumb.

Not just downers, hadjis run on speed too, there was a vice documentary about them iirc.

Never before or since has such a good game been made

I saw an article a few years ago that hypothesized that the widespread use of stimulants from caffeine pills and such to Adderall was to blame the amount and seriousness of PTSD in returning troops. Part of what these drugs do is stimulate the creation of memories so it makes sense that they could play a role.

Amphetamine=/= Methamphetamine

med student here

yes while amphetamines are not methamphetamine both are chemically and pharmacollogically similar, meth differs by a single carbon group

meth is like amphetamines big brother, longer duration of effect and more powerful

How about caffeine pills? Are they speed too?

Weren't the Nazis on speed during their initial invasion so they could go HARD

They were. Some blame the Wormhoudt massacre on the speed they took.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wormhoudt_massacre

The point being there seems to be a corelation between speed use and war crimes soldiers might or might not have done under speed. it would be interesting to have a study substantiating the effect of amphetamine on morality.

>we had to destroy the village to save it

looks like an Accuracy International AW, or L96 as the brits would call it

I take that back, upon closer inspection the bolt is missing, looks like a semi auto dropped into a Accuracy International chassis system

Yes. Look up khat and captagon.

assuming its not just some airshit

No we use anime.

It's called coffee.

Never drank that shit before going in.

It's a 10/22

Nice.

Adderall/ritalin was widely prescribed in the sandpit. More so than you would expect soldiers were being diagnosed with conditions that justified the use of what are definitely performance enhancing drugs.

Take from that what you will.

Always feel pretty unstoppable after 3 ripits, but it makes your piss so yellow it glows in the dark.

Fighter pilots get prescribed uppers and downers all the fucking time. Even in peace time training when switching from nights to days we get the stuff. Feels good man.

Lots of guys (myself included) use nicotine to stay awake and alert when sleep deprived.

Biomed student here. Yes they are very chemically similar. But look me in the eyes and tell me the end results are the same.

No, my dude, they are caffeine pills

You can make do in the field without those things if you really have to.
Not so much if you're an addict.

Fuck off boomer, besides thats fucking star trek

Your a fag .... Amphetamine ftw if you never did you are lying or looking to die after being awake for 36 hours on sentry waiting because your replacement never showed

Why use drugs when you will just come down hard LOL!!!!!!!!!
I used to do these drugs in school I was way cooler than you LOL!!!!!!!!!

If you could somehow cut off it's supply of caffeine, you'd probably cripple the US military.

What a ridiculous getup. Look, she already ruined her leggings just by walking through the brush. I’m actually surprised she hasn’t been cut up, especially since she seems to be the sharpshooter. So she’d be spending a lot of time on the ground.
