Drugs

[kjguy]

I have never done drugs or been drunk in my life. I am proud of it, too.

Yah, me neither! More power to us!:smile:

 

[sdbg]

I experimented back in the '70s. I tried all types of alcoholic beverages, pot, hash, hash oil, lsd, magic mushrooms, downers, diet pills, and cocaine. The only things that I really liked were drinking and pot. About 7 years ago, drinking started to give me heartburn if I had more than 2 glasses of wine. I found out that I have high blood sugar and very rarely will drink now. I still like pot, but am very moderate with it.

Stories? Too many to tell here. They are mainly funny because no one got hurt. Now that I'm older, I would behave more maturely if I had it to do over again. I never got out of control to where intervention was needed, yet I did make a fool of myself on numerous occasions.

 

[B_New End]

What's the worst drug you've done?
Any interesting stories?
Any scary stories?
Interventions?
Current addictions?


​

Worst I would say is acid. It sucked.
Well, my bad trip on acid, and the acid induced night terrors for the next three years, were pretty interesting.

no interventions or addictions

My list, and scores of 1 - 10, star means I still engage in use

weed - 10*
nicoteen - 5
alcohol - 7*
mdma - 9*
acid - 3
dmx - 2
shrooms - 6


I love weed, I rarely smoke it, but when I do, I always have a good time.

 

[D_Sir Fitzwilly Wankheimer III]

Love some good herb. Everytime I think I've had the best some new strain comes along. Nothing better for a concert or the beach. Done coke, shrooms, acid mesceline(sp) to but herb is the only thing I use regulary.

The first time I did coke was with my room-mates in college. It was an odd mix. I was the athlete. Still am but my best freinds are deadheads. It was probably 1992? there was a bad snow storm and we were partying. I always said I prefered to be more low key and wasn't interested in trying coke, didn't like the idea of putting anything up my nose either. Anyway, they asked me If I wanted to do some but I declined due to an upcoming powerlifting meet. I didn't want to get busted so I just got really stoned. (pot is not a performance enhancing drug) I was pretty much out when one of my buds shoved the plate under my nose and told me to do a line. Wow!! That's some amazing shit!! There's no way to explain it unless you've done it. Just like sky diving.

A couple of years later I had some rich brats that lived next to me got in to the coke but I saw what it did to them and became a real pain in the ass, it really turned me off. Now it's a rare event or special occaision type of thing. I've never regretted any of my experiences. I would have missed out. You just have to know what you're getting into. These days it's just some good weed and tequila. Curious about heroin but It's probably best to wonder.

 

[Notthe7]

Lol Swimming Lad.. Alright, Alright.

The worst/most illegal is going to marijuana.
I'm probably a full-out alcoholic on top of it.

Great thing is I have the -least- addictive personality I know.

I've done a lot of prescription pills mixed with alcohol.. which is, I know, asking to die.. but I have to admitt that it's a great high... and if I was ever going to waste away my life I would go that way. Valium, Vicodin [which I don't really enjoy as it doesn't have much of an effect on me], I think I was slipped oxycontin once.

The scariest story: My dealer was out of town so I had to go through a friends dealer. I hate doing that, because I don't trust anyone for shit (either you're getting ripped off money wise, portion wise, the shits bunk etc). But we get some. It's just schwag so we don't expect much of a high. We over at a friends apartment and we have to be quiet because her dad is in the next room sleeping. We each go out one by one and smoke a bowl to ourselves.

I'm the first one to go.
I smoke.
I come back in...
And i immediatly felt fucking weird.

I should have prefaced by saying that I've smoked a lot of different types of weed, for some time and i've never, ever felt like this.

Everything in the room was magnified. My hearing was increased by like 10. There was this dolphin lamp on ! The ones that throw light and the dophins swim up and down and rotate.. and i was straight up trippin'.

I'm guessing it was laced because everyone that came back in felt fucked too. I don't think coke would do this but i have no idea what it could have been laced with.

I've never felt that way again.. and when I called the dealer to question him he was real shady. I later found out he was trying to get into one of my friends pants... and she had to escape his trunk with the drugs.

HMMM?

I'm proud to say i've done a few things in my life and I curse like a sailor. If you don't live life and even indulge in the worst........ I personally don't think you've lived.

 

[B_Swimming Lad]

If you don't live life and even indulge in the worst........ I personally don't think you've lived.

Good motto. I agree

The whole rave scene started when I was about 19, so I got right into ecstasy( when they were MDMA, not some shit mix of coke and speed) for the all night raves, a cool time. Used to take acid, coke, speed, blow, downers' mushrooms(Never injected) all at different times, for different scenes. Could write a book on the adventures from running around nude with hippies to crying begging my friends to take me to hospital after taking too much acid. Had 3 nervous breakdowns and pretty much lived in my bedroom for two years, every day a struggle! That being said had some wild fucking times in Ibiza Germany Holland England and of course at home in Wales. I don't take drugs now, only drink in moderation and I don't regret ever fucking myself up, it was an education on how abuse is fun but dangerous (seen people drop dead from abuse in front of me). These days I don't advocate drug taking but at the same time would not try to stop someone from using either, what's the point, I understood the risks and it didn't stop me. So all in all drugs were good and bad, and once the bad outweighed the good I stopped. These days I enjoy living and without taking something to moderate the experience, and I suppose that is what I wanted in the first place...a good time which I have now, but when I was young I didn't know how that was possible without drink or drugs!

 

[funnyguy]

Started smoking when I was 19 and dammit I still cant stop! I have tried and tried!
I smoked weed for several years. My friend and I got into deep philosophical and personal discussions. It opened up an area of exploration and reduced our inhibitions. I still can't understand why anyone would use it to "get fucked up"?? those days are gone now-no interest.
I tried hash one and it was much too intense for me.
I occasionally drink a glass of wine or kir.
The worst and most tragic thing was that my wife became an uncontrollable alcoholic and caused our divorce. She has since died of its affects. A big heartbreak for me and lots the responsibility of rearing 2 kids by myself.

Maybe you should try and quite for you kids then, who will they have without you? My mother recently was in the hospital for about a month because of smoking.

 

[arliss]

I used to do drugs. I had a herion addiction for, oh let's say, more than ten years, it of course ruined my life. I have been clean for more than fifteen years. I don't think anyone here knows this about me.
I wonder how many of you will have less respect,disinterest in talking to me because of this,hmmm?
I should hope that no one will but, there are plenty of people here who are terribly judgemental. I do happen to think although,that the people I consider my friends,and there are many of you,judge a person solely on how I interact with them.
I want all of you people whom I correspond with, to know,how much I treasure our "online" friendship,truely. Even those who I don't get to talk to much,I really appreciate our friendships.
Thank you to those people.

P.S.
It's very ironic that now I have fibromyalgia and chronic pain
disease,and a host of other illnesses, that I now have to use Morphine and Methadone for pain relief every day.
I have weaned myself off of the morphine and am just sticking to taking methadone,which has a high degree of relief and longer time for subdueing my pain!

very courageous of you to reveal that:biggrin1:

 

[IntoxicatingToxin]

I'm watcing the history channel at the moment... and it's all about DRUGS and their effects.

Question:
What's the worst drug you've done?
Any interesting stories?
Any scary stories?
Interventions?
Current addictions?

Etc.Etc.​

The worst drug I have ever ingested was Cocaine, and that was somewhat of an accident. I wasn't aware I had taken it till after I had. I was smoking pot with a friend, and found out later that it was laced with coke, which explained the odd high I had afterward.

I don't really have any interesting stories... but I did have a friend that almost got hit by a car while on acid - he thought that a large black dog was chasing him, and he ran through the apartment complex for a while trying to get away from it... he ran right out in front of a car, not even realizing it was there. That was pretty scary, to me.

I'm not currently addicted to anything illegal, my only addiction would be cigarettes. I've never had an addiction to anything other than cigarettes. I've had enough drug stuff go on in my family to learn that it's not worth it. My eldest brother was huge into drugs, especially acid... and he tried so many times to kick his habit with no success, that he finally just gave up and killed himself. My other brother, who is still alive (for now) has been battling a cocaine addiction for about 12 years or so now... and I just found out recently that he's been shooting up meth. So yeah. It's not worth it to me to even try those things. :smile:

 

[huw ginnit]

I have enjoyed all the drugs I have ever taken,

I had a major Pot habit, 2 ounces of Black a week for about 15 years, no more no less- there wasn't time in the day!

I love tripping and think it is tantamount to a religious experience, I prefer psylocybins to anything else ever, I once had about 500 and watched "The Colour Purple" ---not good but boy did I enjoy the singing! The first trip I ever had was a Purple Om, much fun, but then everyone took em!

Ectasy has been something of a dubious pleasure over the years, "snowballs" were the best ever, guaranteed "yum yum gimme some, luv'd up bliss!" but that'd be 7-8 years ago now, all these recent types are too mongy for anyone to ever suggest they're E's anymore...

Charlie, is the plaisir du jour these days, especially now it's really cheap too; a cocktail of champagne, brandy and a dab of Coke takes me to heaven, tho champagne gives me heartburn like crazy!

Besides that I'm a clean living boy, haven't had whizz in 15 years, tho I used to like a bit now and then. But it takes it out of you... Now I'm bobbing on,

It's funny, what happened to the "War on drugs" Police Chiefs used to talk about.........????

I find your story inspiring. I had a diagnosis of fibromyalgia until they discovered (after years) that I have ectopic atrial tachycardia. My heart beats so fast and irregularly that I don't get enough oxygen to my body so I get pain from that if I don't take my medicine to regulate my heartbeat.

The worst drug I ever tried? Well, that would have to be crack cocaine. It was nasty and I stopped after one weekend knowing that I liked it too much.

I've tried pot and amyl nitrates. Pot is OK, I'm not a fan and don't do much at all. I smoke or eat it maybe once a year. I get sick on amyl nitrates and poppers. I get sick to my stomach so I won't ever do them again.

I used to smoke cigarettes. When I started as a 17 year old I smoked Camel no-filters. They were fantastic with coffee. I lived off of those in college the first time around. I smoked 2 packs per day. I quit when I was 24. Then I started again in grad school about 4 years ago and I smoked Nat Sherman Hint of Mint only 2 cigs per day. I quit about 1 year ago. I love smoking. It doesn't love me. I can feel my lungs after even one cigarette.

I drink alcohol occasionally. It's not something I do everyday and generally when I drink I have about two drinks and that's it. I love good whiskey, scotch, vodka, wine, and beer. I'm kind of a snob and I like the good stuff so it's expensive. Thus I don't consume much at all.

I still dearly love my coffee. I have to limit it because of my heart rate issues. I only drink it in the morning and I only have one latte or one cup of drip. I don't have any caffeine after noon unless it's some iced or hot tea. Then I'm very careful not to have too much or I won't sleep well at night.

Well, that's it...

 

[B_Think_Kink]

Weed has to be the worst I guess... or hash... but I have to consume it in such large quantities that it makes no sense at all for me to take it. Thus I mix with alcohol when I do do pot. Makes for a more stable intoxication.

I've also purposely mixed my anti-psychotics with alcohol... it is the craziest surreal feeling. Olanzapine was just plain intense. I can't remember the other one I was on... it fucked me right up but it was so insane. The first time I did Olanzipine and alcohol I was so tripped out I couldn't hold my urine and wet myself a bit.... I'd take a few more pills than I should have... and drank away... and then it hits you...

 

[AlteredEgo]

Certainly not I! What tremendous resources of strength must one have to overcome drug addictions? Kudos to all of our friends here who have overcome such hurdles.

 

[B_inch_10_oz]

I'm a drinker, and an OCCASIONAL social smoker. I didn't 'start' smoking until I was 23, and I don't think i would have even smoked a packet since then.

BTW, Notthe7, I think I'm getting a crush!

 

[B_NineInchCock_160IQ]

I saw that program. I watch the History Channel a lot, pretty much whenever I've finished watching my Tivo'd episodes of The Daily Show, Colbert Report, South Park and The Office, and need something else to put on.

I think it could have been angeldust. I don't trust people either. PCP has a distinct smell, and you should try to burn a little of the weed before you smoke it. Just to see if it smells right. If it smells right, puff-puff-pass. If not, take it back. Unless you like PCP. I don't intend to find out if I like it or not, personally. The drug awareness programs in my elementary years have me sufficiently convinced to avoid that particular drug. Another thing to do is buy in very large quantities. Stay away from dealers who are willing to sell you less than half an ounce. Better dealers deliver, and sell in quantity. Their stuff is fresh and damp. Tip them,and they will be especially nice to you, giving you their freshest, making you their first stop, etc. If you can't afford to spend $100+, either don't smoke, or have a friend or two chip in. Anyway, those are my paranoid precautions.

I used heroin for about 3 years. For the last two years of that it was no longer fun. I have been clean for almost 15 years. I started smoking pot when I was 11. I had a brother who was 6 years older than I, and he influenced my choice in this matter because I looked up to him. I guess there is some truth in what they say about marijuana being a gateway drug.

Quiting both marijuana and heroin was difficult because of the effect they have on sex. With marijuana your sensations are intensified. With heroin you get what they call "dope dick", which is where you can stay hard for hours without ejaculating.

But by far the worst drug I have ever done was crystal meth. I was so afraid of possibly becoming addicted that I stopped using it after the second time I used it. Perhaps that was because of my previous experiences with other drugs.
