English term or phrase:tweaking
Opis stanu, w którym zwiększanie dawki metamfetaminy na koniec ciągu już nie powoduje haju, pozostaje tylko pustka i głód narkotykowy. Wiki przekierowuje to "stereotypowania", ale nie o to chodzi, tak przynajmniej mi się wydaje. Próbowałem znaleźć coś sensownego po polsku, ale się poddałem.
4) Tweaking— A methamphetamine abuser is most dangerous when experiencing a phase of the addiction called “tweaking”—a condition reached at the end of a drug binge when methamphetamine no longer provides a rush or a high. Unable to relieve the horrible feelings of emptiness and craving, an abuser loses his sense of identity. Intense itching is common and a user can become convinced that bugs are crawling under his skin. Unable to sleep for days at a time, the abuser is often in a completely psychotic state and he exists in his own world, seeing and hearing things that no one else can perceive. His hallucinations are so vivid that they seem real and, disconnected from reality, he can become hostile and dangerous to himself and others. The potential for self-mutilation is high. - http://www.drugfreeworld.org/drugfacts/crystalmeth/the-stage...
Frank, I think the best part of our job is that they pay us to learn, instead of charging tuition ;) I've been doing a lot of anti-drug materials recently for a big client, and man, did I learn a thing or two!
Now, Frank, you if feel the need to explain yourself when you don't answer a particular question of Kudoz, that's the sign of a real sense of ownership of the place! And in your case, fully justifiable too!
