What drugs do you do? What drugs have you done? What drugs do you want to try? I have tried: Alcohol - regularly Weed - regularly, usually multiple times a day Xanax - (prescribed) regularly, only thing that actually eliminates my anxiety, but I don't take it daily because of its huge risk for addiction --- Cocaine - never paid for it, only done it a few times when someone I trust has offered it to me, overrated, gives me anxiety, not my thing. Vicodin - I think I tried it only once, maybe twice when I was like 18. Didn't like it. It's the only opiate I've ever tried and I don't plan on doing it again recreationally. Shrooms - twice. First time I took it, best high ever from any drug. Most peaceful experience ever. Sublime. I was one with the earth. Second time was OK too. LSD - only once but it was awesome. Adderall - was supposed to take it for ADD, it helped, and when snorted makes me feel amazing. Way better than coke imo. I don't do it on the regular, maybe once or twice a year. Atarax - for my anxiety when I was 16. Flexeril - for my anxiety and muscle spasms. Good for muscle spasms and insomnia. Zoloft - idk if it even counts since you can't get high from it Valium - another benzo but not as effective as xanax. Mostly used it for anxiety but also a few times to have fun mixing it with alcohol every now and then in my late teens Klonopin - another benzo, only used it for anxiety, probably 2nd best at eliminating anxiety next to xanax. Has never gotten me high and I've never taken it to get high Ativan - another benzo I tried for my anxiety which had almost no effect Ecstasy - took it once at TechFest when I was 17. It was probably cut with god knows what, felt awful, never again. Nicotine/cigarettes - gross. Smells gross, makes me feel like shit, absolutely no pleasurable effects whatsoever. --- What I want to try: DMT, totally safe and spiritual high. --- What I will NEVER try: crack, heroin, meth, pcp I'm sure the trolls will have fun with this. But, trolls aside, let's see who's a square and who's not.

    So you're on Xanax, you have been on or tried Adderall, Zoloft and Flexeril - I knew you were crazy this proves it! Lol - I'm only messing with you. Aside from alcohol, I have been drug free for over 13 years, with the exception of snorting Adderall a few times when I have been in Vegas - and that was mainly to help me stay awake.

    No drugs, except maybe caffeine, and I might cut this out. Minor amounts of alcohol, but decades ago. Zero now. Never in my entire life tobacco or illegal drugs. And never psychiatric medication. And I completely reject the New Wine of Born Again Christianity. I don't think any good ever comes from drugs or escapism. Our country has a much more serious problem with doctor prescribed drugs, than with the illegal kind. There is only one mood alternant that I go for, as a form of pagan liturgy, and this is tantric sex. I also do a great deal of reflection and meditation. Tantric sex, meditation, and reflection, expand my consciousness and give me mystical experiences. No need for anything else, not ever. SJG PS, replying to Meat72's posts is a bummer and a waste of time. Better not to even bother.

    Lol Shailynn... I looove the way xanax binds to my GABA receptors. Haha. If only it were not so addictive - I'd be taking it every day. Maybe multiple times a day. It's literally a miracle drug. It cures anxiety, nausea, hangovers, and pms. It also gives me an appetite which is great because I love food. But I do use it responsibly and as prescribed. I don't even think Flexeril is addictive. The last time I took it was like 3 yrs ago when I woke up in horrible pain from pole work. It never really made me high per se, just calm and drowsy. Adderall is nice but I couldn't take it regularly. Only during final exams lol. I'm thin enough, I don't need anything that decreases my appetite.

    I smoke weed almost every day. It's a wonder drug. And it greatly enhances the strip club experience. I'm planning to get high with a blow job queen itc tonight. I drink alcohol frequently but rarely get very drunk. I almost took Molly with a stripper recently but tusclers talked me out of it. That's it.

    I really want to try meditation as a means to cope with my anxiety but it's so bad I fear I'll always need to be medicated for it :( Zoloft was a sham, Dr said it would reduce my anxiety and increase my appetite - LIES! I lost weight on it and it nauseated me. Cigs are gross, I'm so glad that habit never stuck with me. I never liked them. Ew ew ew

    SJG - weed is a miracle drug with tons of health benefits. It's safer than almost any over the counter med. Zero people have OD'ed on it. It's safer than aspirin, ibuprofen, etc. It has life-saving qualities and recent studies have even shown it shrinking cancer cells. It's the safest drug I mentioned and virtually not physically addictive. It's not a Dissociative, but I can understand a person getting so high that they feel dissociative effects. I respect your decision to never try it, but please understand that it is pretty much a harmless herb. Caffeine is more addictive.

    If a person is going through severe mental distress I would totally recommend monitored mind-altering drugs rx drugs, IF that gets them through it without causing them more damage. Ie find a reputable psychiatrist and take the drugs as prescribed.

    Nina wrote, "weed is a miracle drug with tons of health benefits..." I know that lots of people believe this. The more they use it, the more they depend on it, though this addiction is mostly psychological. The reason it is psychologically addictive is that people use it to avoid facing their own feelings, so that they don't have to live in their own skin. The longer they do this for, the more harmed they become. And yes, caffeine is both physically and psychologically addictive. But I would say that the psychological part of the caffeine addiction is less than with marijuana. SJG

    "Caffeine is more addictive" Sez the person who smokes weed multiple times a day. (Sorry, I couldn't resist) A few of my dancer friends have wanted me to smoke with them - but I've resd about too many people that have experienced a very fast heart rate after smoking. I just don't wanna take the chance. I would like to hear the truth though.

    Nina wrote, "If a person is going through severe mental distress I would totally recommend monitored mind-altering drugs ..." I would never recommend this. People need to face their feelings, This is what mental distress is, really bad feelings, and always for good reasons. No other way but to face them, and this can take years. But still have to do it. Alcohol, street drugs, born again Christianity, and psychiatric medication all work pretty much the same way. Someone using them is permanently altered. Or at least the path back would be very hard. It is because they don't face their feelings, so they become permanently dissociated. It is like with the Pentecostal Daughter Molester whom I helped put into San Quentin. His life had been driven first with marijuana cocaine and alcohol. The he was approached by Campus Evangelicals and his addictive state advanced to the point where Born Again Christianity could replace marijuana and cocaine. But he still had alcohol on top of his Born Again Christianity. Then he had a midlife crisis and a nervous breakdown. Hopefully he would have started to feel his feeling then and admitted that he needed a divorce and a new career. Very much like in the 1969 Kirk Douglas movie, The Arrangement. Well this guy did not listen to his feelings. Instead he listened to the white coats who told him that he had a brain chemical imbalance and a psychiatric condition and so that he needed to be on psych meds. So he never figured out why he was on marijuana and cocaine. He just found that Born Again Christianity gave him what they gave him. He never figured out why he was on alcohol, he just found that psych meds gave him what that gave him. So I spent many pages explaining to the DA that this is how it works in his church. Most of them have serious histories with alcohol, drugs, and spousal abuse. But then they got SAVED! They also all have blacksheep children. He had both a black sheep son and a black sheep daughter. The daughter he abused sexually, and blamed in on her. The son he got diagnosed with a psych condition and put on meds, and removed from the home. I was able to help the DA see through this guy's nonsense and so now he is serving a long sentence. :) These cases are underreported in the newspapers, in order to avoid further harming the victims.

    "I know that lots of people believe this." Lots of people believe this because it's true. It doesn't matter how you slice or dice it, it's a scientic fact that weed has health benefits. It can treat glaucoma, epileptic seizures, nausea, increases appetite so it can be life saving for peopel with cancer on chemo suffering from "wasting syndrome," can help slow down effects of Alzheimer's, helps treat pain of multiple sclerosis, can slow cancer growth, and even INCREASES lung capacity. "The more they use it, the more they depend on it, though this addiction is mostly psychological. The reason it is psychologically addictive is that people use it to avoid facing their own feelings, so that they don't have to live in their own skin. The longer they do this for, the more harmed they become." The same can be said for using sex or video games for mental pleasure. And, for me personally, weed does the opposite of making me avoid facing my feelings - I often over think when I'm high. I get ALL UP IN my feelings. "And yes, caffeine is both physically and psychologically addictive. But I would say that the psychological part of the caffeine addiction is less than with marijuana." BS. I know plenty of adults who can't function without starting their day w/a cup pf coffee. When I worked at a sports bar one of our servers needed a minimum of 6 cups of coffee a day. If she didn't have at least 6, she'd get terrible headaches and couldn't funtion. It's fine if you want to be marijuana-free, but you should at least acknowledge that its benefits aren't just opinions, they're facts.

    @motorhead - I smoke weed several times a day because I choose to and I can - it's not addictive. I have plenty of money to spend on top quality weed, it doesn't hurt my finances, and I don't if I have responsibilities that require a clear mind. For example, I won't smoke before class or before a trial because those are times when clarity is needed and it wouldn't look good on a lawyer's part if his assistant was laughing during his trial. Lmao I've also quit willingly and gone without weed for months on end, several times. Never had a problem.

    Nina wrote, ".... It can treat glaucoma, epileptic seizures, nausea, increases appetite so it can be life saving for peopel with cancer on chemo suffering from "wasting syndrome," ... " Again, I don't agree. Mind altering chemicals are not a good way to deal with chronic pain, like with glaucoma. Yoga and meditation are. Same goes for appetite loss. And also, look at what is causing appetite loss, cancer chemo. Now with epilepsy, that is so serious. But marijuana is being used only because it is a self prescribable alternative to psych meds. There have got to be other ways. People are just throwing this out. Multiple Sclerosis causes migraine headaches along with fractured vision. Meditation plus just a little bit of Dramamine. The effect on respiratory health from marijuana smoking is the same as for tobacco cigarettes, Stan Glantz of UC Berkeley, author of "Tobacco Papers". Nina wrote, "The same can be said for using sex or video games for mental pleasure." Yes, sex can be an addiction. We can be like Mr. LDK, addicted to the endorphin rush that comes with ejaculation. I think it mostly depends on the context and how we approach it. It is done to have a transformative mystical experience, not just to cope day by day. Someone who smokes weed each day is doing that latter, obviously. Nina wrote, "I know plenty of adults who can't function without starting their day w/a cup pf coffee. " I think that is more the physical addiction part of caffeine. Getting off of it takes about 2 weeks. But once one has had any chemical addiction, there will always be the susceptibility to going back to it because one's physiology has been permanently altered, so there is a tolerance. Once one goes back to a little bit, one will be very likely to go into heavy use again. So once one has gone far enough, if one wants to get clean, then total abstinence is the only thing likely to work. I think being marijuana free is necessary if one wants access to their mental faculties. And I don't agree that marijuana has benefits. I believe that these are illusory. Though I still don't think marijuana should be legally handled by total prohibition. Didn't work with alcohol, won't work with anything else. And also, I see everyday the people my age who have been turned into complete imbeciles by decades of marijuana. And thanks to @motorhead for weighing in.

    SJG - if you honestly think weed has NO benefits you might as well also think that the world was created in 7 days and that Adam and Eve lived with dinosaurs. You can dislike weed all you want for it being "mind altering," but it is an undeniable and axiomatic fact that weed has health benefits. At this point idk whether or not you are trolling...

    Meat72, you're welcome. Nina, just listen to what you are saying, "I smoke weed several times a day because I choose to and I can - it's not addictive. I have plenty of money to spend on top quality weed, it doesn't hurt my finances, and I don't if I have responsibilities that require a clear mind. For example, I won't smoke before class or before a trial because those are times when clarity is needed and it wouldn't look good on a lawyer's part if his assistant was laughing during his trial. Lmao" You are saying that you want to go thru life fucked up, weed several times per day. I have no idea what in the world could have made you this way. If not weed itself, then who knows. I'm not going to put you in jail and I don't mind conversing with you. But never ever would I have anything more than that to do with you. I value my mental and emotional faculties. And the people is associate with value theirs. SJG Knock on Wood, starts here [view link]

    benefits of weed? Mostly it is just that many people don't have adequate access to our health care system, and that they have good reason to distrust it. And then also, people have not been taught to manage their own emotional, mental, and physical states. So in such a bleak situation, people could come to the fallacious conclusion that there are benefits to weed. SJG

    SJG - weed doesn't "fuck me up." And yes, I plan on smoking weed for the rest of my life. I'll take long breaks without it, especially once my career is in full swing, but you better believe I will roll blunts for my future husband and we will smoke them together while our future children are at summer camp. He will have a blunt rolled and waiting for him when he gets off work. When I'm an old lady in my 80s sitting in my rocking chair I will have a blunt in my hand, and you can count on that!

    "So once one has gone far enough, if one wants to get clean, then total abstinence is the only thing likely to work," says SJG This is mostly for physical addictions like say alcohol or caffeine. It is not a moral issue, it is a physiological issue. I believe that anyone who goes far enough with ANY mood altering or physiology altering chemical is likely to get addicted. This is not a moral issue, it is a physiological issue. What is a spiritual and moral issue is when people believe that it is better to go through life fucked up instead of using their full faculties. SJG

You say weed does not fuck you up. But it still alters you in some way, and this is still a degradation. What people need to learn to do is mindfulness meditation and to be in touch with their feelings. So while I'm not going to try to put you in jail, you won't be involved in anything I am responsible for. SJG

    And SJG others believe that marijuana actually heightens their senses and elevates them into a more spiritual state of mind. You think that everyone's answer is meditation. It does not work for everyone. Some people have genetic chemical imbalances in their brain that meditation cannot fix. There are people who literally cannot function properly because of panic disorders; there are people who cannot focus on work without distracting themselves, no matter how much they focus, because of their ADD. Hell, there are people with schizophrenia who hallucinate and have delusions. There are people who suffer from severe depression. These are physiological problems in the brain that some people aren't lucky enough to meditate away. For those who can, great. For those who can't, they shouldn't have to suck it up and suffer and go crazy.

    Yes. PLENTY of famous musicians stayed stoned, performed stoned, and wrote music stoned. SJG worries it will limit one from using all one's faculties, yet for many in the music/art world it has been regularly used and sometimes even a muse. Plenty of actors and actresses smoke weed. Quentin Tarantino is one of my fave directors and does he partake? YUP. Carl Sagan the astrophysicist smoked marijuana regularly, he was also an advocate for its use in HELPING with intellectual pursuits. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates have done LSD. Guess it didn't stop them from being successful. Sigmund Freud did coke and advocated its use to help people stop using morphine (lmao I wouldn't suggest that), and Thomas Edison used cocaine elixirs. So...

    Nina wrote, "You think that everyone's answer is meditation. It does not work for everyone. .." Again, learning to live in one's own skin is a life's work. This is what I wrote to the DA about the Pentecostal alcohol, drugs, born again, psych meds case. The people of his church have not even begun such work. The people you have described have a long road ahead of them. But one thing is sure, using a mood altering chemical will make the path longer for them, not shorter. mikeya02, People who are in touch with their feelings don't talk the way you do. Coming to be in touch with one's feelings is hard work. So much in our culture is oriented towards escapism, as is marijuana. JS69, yes the stuff I do is drug free. You are understanding me correctly. Mikeya02, yes I know that a large percentage of musicians use drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. I like their music, but this does not mean I would want to be involved with these persons in any further way. Some musicians are on born again Christianity too. With these, I won't even listen to their music. Nina wrote, "SJG worries it will limit one from using all one's faculties" Not quite, that is just a shorthand way of talking. What I know is that one who wants to be in touch with their feelings and be mindful and non-forgetting would never ever use something like marijuana. And as far as Quentin Tarantino and all the actresses and actors, I do not give a shit what they do. What you say of Carl Sagan I had not heard before. Have to look into this, I don't know much about him. Of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, I had not known this, but there are lots of who have used LSD, as simply an experiment. Some maintain that they are improved by it. I doubt this. But whatever they want to think. Using it once is not a big deal. Of Freud and Thomas Edison, well back in their day lots of people were addicted to cocaine as it was used in dentistry and it came in Coca Cola. Not good. Today Coca Cola is one of the most malicious forms of caffeine addiction. Not Good. You might list thousands. Just saying that people are successful does not really prove anything. People used to think that cigarettes were good for schizophrenics. Jazz musicians like Charlie Parker thought that heroine was good. This is all total nonsense. I think what it really comes down to is do you want your memories and your awareness. This has nothing whatsoever to do with worldly success, as that is irrelevant. The mind altering chemicals and the addictions they cause are not moral issues. The moral issues is, why would you want to do anything which interferes with development of chemical free psycho-spiritual awareness? SJG

    Prescription med are clearly a more serious problem than the illegal kind. One of the most screwed up people I have ever known has been convinced by doctors that he is only held together by the scotch tape of psych meds. But what made him susceptible to this view was his long history of letting doctors put him whatever pain killers or anything else they wanted. It was also his own employment history in the psych industry, plus his having easy access to the pharmacy at our county hospital. SJG

    As Rico Suave said back in the 90s - “... My only addiction has to do with the female species I eat em raw like sushi ...” I've never tried any illegal drugs – having immigrated w/ my family as a child to the United States and starting at the bottom and having to struggle to just make it to middle-class someday I knew I could not afford to fuck around w/ drugs – I grew up w/ nothing and did not want to stay w/ nothing or end up w/ nothing and growing up I saw a lot of stoners that did not make anything of their lives. I also have a bit of a “all or nothing” personality in that often times I rarely do things in “moderation” - I either go full-board or I don't go at all for the most-part – so me being like this I always felt it would be dangerous for me to experimenter w/ drugs. I would not doubt marijuana has beneficial effects but I've always hated smoking and could never see myself putting something in mouth and inhaling it. Many drugs may not create an addiction but IMO often times it can create a dependency where one feels they have to have it to in their mind “function properly or be at their best/peak” and that may often not be the case even if the user is convinced they are better for doing it – i.e. IMO drugs are often a way to mask a problem rather than fixing it; IMO.

    I drink beer on occassion and drink soda a bit too much now. I think I'm addicted to the caffeine but need a long vacation break to reduce the habit. As far as everything else, I don't even like to go to the doctor and haven't the last two or 3 years getting free blood work at work. Half the stuff the doctor has given to me I've had an allergic reaction to or I didn't like the side effects. I have been exposed to second hand smoke a lot, including second hand weed at one rock concert. The most high I got I once routinely did by aerobic exercise bicycling one to three hours at a time at speeds up to 50mph. Drugs never really made me feel that good for so long. although beer can come close sometimes. I experienced some weird time effects after drinking beer back several years ago. To prove that I wasn't imagining it all, I played through all the levels on some arcade games in the bars. Never could have done that so easy without the time speed affects.

    SJG "The effect on respiratory health from marijuana smoking is the same as for tobacco cigarettes, Stan Glantz of UC Berkeley, author of "Tobacco Papers"." Bullshit. This is only even comparable when talking about smoking blunts and joints. There are so many more ways to consume weed than that. Smoking marijuana can be harmful because you are inhaling SMOKE. Smoke is harmful. Sitting at a bonfire inhaling burning wood is harmful. When weed is vaporized or eaten (brownies, suckers, whatever), you don't have to worry about the dangers of smoke... Not to mention the average weed smoker might have a blunt or so per day, while the average cigarette smoker has FAR more than that. Weed is still winning.

    I struggle with the efficacy of SSRI meds for depression and anxiety. I do not necessarily think they are harmful, I simple think they are rather ineffective and prevent people from seeking out cognitive behavioral therapy. However, given the impulsive nature of our hobby, I would argue that many of us have ADD and/or another clinical mental health condition found in the DSM-V. Here's the kicker for me: I am a functional benzo addict. It has been prescribed to me for years to treat anxiety for which I was previously self-medicating with alcohol. So, while I can sit here and argue that I question the efficacy of one form of medication, my benzos have allowed me to function and thrive. The withdrawal, however, will likely send me to a Betty Ford Clinic...

    I agree that SSRIs in general aren't very helpful with anxiety and depression. I only took Zoloft when it was prescribed to me. I never would have thought to take it, so I researched it after it was prescribed and it had very mixed reviews, along with other SSRIs I looked up along w/it. Then I couldn't put up with it so I stopped taking it after a few months and felt much better afterwards, physically. Mentally, it took a little longer as that was a stressful time in my life. I was still in my teens, it was shortly before I started dancing. Then I started dancing and my life got better and although I'm happier, I still struggle with anxiety. It has physical effects on my body. I've had anxiety for as long as I can remember, so I assume I'll have it my whole life. It's genetic. I have a twin sis, she's the same way.

    @Nina: Identifying positive coping mechanisms can help mitigate the symptoms of anxiety. Knowing positive strategies work for you and implementing them can make life more manageable... This is obviously input from a hypocritical individual who has been on Ativan for years... However, that drug has kept me from the depths of my alcoholism... Which was much more debilitating. Other positive coping strategies that have kept me healthy include exercise (do you consider dancing a cardio activity), therapy, yoga, and participation in positive social activities. Negative coping strategies have hindered me have included my daily use of benzos (prescribed), hoarding my money to spend on dancers and daydreaming about getting VIP dances from you and your colleagues. Oh, and binge-watching Netflix. Netflix is like crack-cocaine for my impulsive anxiety riddled ass. When I go there... There is a lot of hope. I have seen countless individuals go into remission. As I have experienced from time-to-time myself. Keep on keeping on.

    I take approximately 19 pills per day for blood pressure, cholesterol, mild arrhythmia, degenerative arthritis and petit mal epilepsy. All of these are well controlled. That said, I have basically ceased taking antihistamines, aspirin (which would be really bad with my Warfarin!) or any other painkillers except in very rare circumstances. Never have smoked or used any illegal drugs, model airplane glue or other solvents. I probably take between three and five alcoholic drinks a week.

    Alcohol--Usually in the form of beer. Being an uptight person, I find alcohol allows me to enjoy myself in social situations like parties or strip clubs. I typically drink a couple times a week, but I have gone for months without a drink. Tobacco--I smoked a pack a day when I was in my early 20's. I quit because of health concerns. Quitting smoking was the best thing I ever did. Weed--I used weed in college. Then I went into the business world and was never around weed for decades. Now I occasionally smoke weed with my stripper friends. It doesn't do much for me. Demerol--Demerol is a narcotic like morphine. When I was 22, I had oral surgery for 4 impacted wisdom teeth. The oral surgeon used demerol to knock me out. When I awoke, my mouth was swollen and full of stitches. And I felt wonderful. I've never felt so wonderful before or since. If demerol were legal and non-addictive and without side effects, I would use it every day.

If work protocols took effect at strip clubs, everyone would be required to wear ear plugs before entering the club or the music would be very soft. There would be a guard rails around all edges of the stages. Climbing up poles would be prohibited unless the dancer had trained certification and had fall protection equipment on and she was tied off. ropes etc.

I also have a bit of a “all or nothing” personality in that often times I rarely do things in “moderation” - I either go full-board or I don't go at all for the most-part – so me being like this I always felt it would be dangerous for me to experimenter w/ drugs. I would not doubt marijuana has beneficial effects but I've always hated smoking and could never see myself putting something in mouth and inhaling it. Many drugs may not create an addiction but IMO often times it can create a dependency where one feels they have to have it to in their mind “function properly or be at their best/peak” and that may often not be the case even if the user is convinced they are better for doing it – i.e. IMO drugs are often a way to mask a problem rather than fixing it; IMO." I think this very much expresses how I feel. There are things I want to accomplish in this world. For me they are not just economic either. Drugs do not help. I am involved in community programs where I have contact with people who's lives completely revolve around alcohol, drugs, born again Christianity, and psychiatric medications. These people are completely gone. Mostly it is because they are child abuse survivors. Sometimes abused in the same churches whose outreach ministries prey on them today. So no, drugs are not going to be a part of my life or my ventures. And yes, I did look up Carl Sagan and his endorsement of marijuana. I do remember now that long ago I had heard that. Well, he is entitled to his views. But I still don't go along with it at all. I believe he has done good things, and that this is despite his use of marijuana, not because of it in any way. SJG

    I don't see that there is much difference at all. I am opposed to both alcohol and marijuana, and also to tobacco. But I don't think prohibition is the way to deal with any of these issues. That didn't work before and it won't work now. I see alcohol, drugs, born again Christianity, and psychiatric medications as all working the same way and having the same effects. A question to Meat72, so if I am understanding your posts correctly here, how would you like to see the legalization of drugs proceed? Do you think there should be zero restrictions? I say that there should be restrictions on packaging, advertising, and in time, place, and eligibility for sale. I also think tobacco and alcohol should be handled the same way as these other drugs. But none of these restrictions should be so great as to encourage a black market. And then psychiatric medications should be just as restricted, And psychotherapists should be delicensed, so they are just like fortune tellers.

    @ SJG, I honestly don't know how the administration of drugs should be dispensed as it is an industry unknown to me. Maybe the same as our current pharmaceutical system, but probably a bad idea. All I know is that countries that had a terrible societal problem of drug use and switched to legalization saw their citizens addictions reduce to nearly zero %! Just look up Portugal's history of handling this. Once legalization happened they could then begin to educate and help the unfortunate ones who were addicted, so maybe we could follow a system like theirs. However in the USA, we would have the capitalists trying to do a money grab on this legalization so it can't be an apples to apples comparison. to hamper free will on drugs is to cause people to go into hiding, and the shame sometimes is more harmful than the actual drug use.
  • san_jose_guy

    Meat, I largely agree with you on this. And I had not known about Portugal. You may know that in his memoirs Vicente Fox has called for drug legalization, as the only way to stop the drug violence, and also to stop the further spread of drug use within the Mexican population. He never said anything like that when he was president, but then it was under his more conservative successor Philippe Calderon that the drug wars really took off. Now Fox is not talking about half way measures or making deals with the cartels. He makes it clear that drug distributors need to have access to the courts to sue for breach of contract or theft of their property. He means full legality and an open market. As former route driver and then CEO of Coca-Cola, he understands what this means. What I do not know though is whether his call for legalization also includes distribution within Mexico. But anyway, I say there should be restrictions on sales, packaging, and a total ban on advertising, as well as restrictions on places of use. But otherwise these street drugs, alcohol, tobacco, and psychiatric medications, should be treated the same way. We can't pass laws to restrict Born Again Christianity, but we should be able to educate people about it. In countries which have good universal health care and a good social safety net and good job retraining and placement, Born Again Christianity is all but non-existent.

    And not only is alcohol a drug, but it is one of the most addictive, with some of the deadliest withdrawals, extreme intoxication, and causes more violence than any other drug I can think of. It affects the body the same way other drugs of its class would, has the same binding sites (GABA) as other drugs that cause the uninhibited effects that alcohol does.

    LFM, why do you recommend against lean? Just curious. A sip or two shouldn't hurt... in fact I think if most people take just the normal dose (maybe 15mL or so, which is maybe equivalent to a couple teaspoons or so and less than a "shot" of alcohol in volume). I think the dose not to exceed at a time is 30mL (which would fill up one of those little measuring cups that comes with both otc and rx liquid meds). I think often when people drink lean recreationally, they have wayyy more than that. A couple months ago I tried it for the first time and had maybe half of a recommended dose. Mind you, I never take opiates so my body has no tolerance to codeine. It just made me relax and eventually fall asleep, and sleep like a baby. I just saw my regular dr a few days ago, and she prescribed me promethazine for my nausea (Phenergan). It's the one of the two main ingredients in lean. I think one of the reasons they even put it in there is so people will fall asleep from the promethazine before they OD off the codeine. Because unfortunately a lot of people end up trying these substances with no knowledge of what a small or normal intake is and end up exceeding their limits.

I think that there are so many jobs reliant on drug enforcement it would displace many former military personnel who now work in the security/police business. In the most democratic way of big government, as long as the left leaning media and political climate remains, there will be no place for legalization of drugs.

    Lol motorhead, you've always been so interested in me, even before I came to tuscl! Anyway, I'll probably never work for GM or Ford, but I know people who do and smoke weed. They managed to "pass" their tests, and I would, too. (Hypothetically) And, motorhead, since you are for some reason curious, most law firms actually do NOT do drug testing. The exception would be government jobs, but even then, many don't. As for the large law firms, they don't do mandatory drug screenings. I'm in the clear.

    I know a lot of places do initial drug testing as part of the hiring process. I remember over 20 years ago going to an interview and they did drug testing as part of the interview but didn't tell me I was going to have to pee in a cup. I was thirsty and peed before I left for the interview. It took almost an hour before I could pee again. Would have been a lot faster to get a blood sample or almost anything else. Never had a company include drug testing as part of the first interview. Usually most companies screened candidates until maybe only the ones they planned to hire were left and as part of getting approved to be hired, they had to pass a drug test.

    I think any position in a manufacturing company requires passing a drug test whether you are an office worker, manager, engineer, accountant, production employee, drafter, or whatever. At the company I work for, if you are a passenger in a vehicle that gets in an accident, then everyone involved is required to be drug tested. I think that policy sounds stupid. Makes me not want to ride with anyone from work unless I trust their driving.

    I'm ok with legalizing marijuana. However I think it should be ok on a national basis or not in any bars and clubs if not legal. I believe it's a waste of taxpayer money housing people and paying for the food and housing for years just because they had pot on them during a traffic stop. I also think sex work should be legalized and taxed. Government revenue could increase enough likely to eliminate many budget shortfalls. South Carolina could raise their gas tax to help create a consistent source of funding to fix deteriorating roads here. I'm ok with several tax cuts but also ok with lifting the pay cap on paying social security taxes so that people who make more than 90k or 100k don't get some of their income excluded from social security taxes like all of us poorer folks have to pay. Considering the system is currently scheduled to be out of money in only 20 to 30 years, I'm ok with those who are better off paying the same amount of SS taxes that all of us poorer guys have to pay. So far I know of no political party with all my views.

    I googled "do big law firms drug test" and it appears Nina is correct. And I found this answer on one board: "It seems absurd to test professionals in a high skill/high stress/high responsibility job like biglaw for drugs, not to mention insulting" -- That is just about the dumbest comment I've ever seen. So it's "not" insulting to drug test low level employees at manufacturing jobs? What a double standard. I thought lawyers were all about representing people that can't stand up for themselves. And who's so arrogant to think lawyers should be allowed to do drugs because their jobs are "professional" and high stress. Survey after survey have reported that frint line customer service representatives rank in the top ten of most stressful jobs. But in many companies, they would have to take a drug test

    Should have said letting those with higher salaries pay the same percentage of social security tax as everyone else. Right now above a specific income level, no extra social security tax is paid. I view SS as just another tax. If I could have taken all the money I paid and that my employers have paid over my life and had it invested in a special 401k similar account, I would have had a whole lot more funds available. This is a result of socialism and it worked good for the socialists until people started loving a lot longer. Originally people died before they collected hardly anything from social security. Socialism works until they run out of your money. Venezuela is a good example of socialism destroying the economy if left to grow unchecked. There are a lot of idiots in our society and those with problems and those who don't know how to invest and save for a rainy day. That's what socialism is good for. Providing for all those misfits in society and those with bad luck so they aren't left with nothing. Ok I'll stop rambling.

    Jumping in thread late: Doing drugs is a non-starter for me. Primarily because I'm not interested in doing them. Also for much of my professional life, fell under DOT rules for drug testing. Namely, initial hiring, reasonable suspicion, and random. The later category in the early 90's required a 50% testing rate, later dropped to 25% when it was shown that positives rate was infinitesimally small. (i.e. if company has 100 employees in certain category, a minimum of 25 random drug tests must be administered throughout the calendar year.) Yes, marijuana, along with several other drugs are on the "laundry list" to be screened for. @motorhead- Does Ford do random testing along with 1-2 aforementioned categories ? @Nina- A recent post of yours seems to imply that drug users that you're acquainted with "might" be slipping by the test with "one of those kits." That cute stuff doesn't cut it in the DOT world. One coworker with over 20 years at company random test showed excessive nitrates, which would be indicative of an additive to the urine sample. He got his licenses back on a lengthy appeal (chain of custody procedures had some gaps in it, he had a top notch attorney on his case) but still lost his job with co. He maintains that he didn't do drugs or an additive. Point being that it's nothing to screw around with.

    @Nina- "Someone elses pee"... That doesn't cut either, as the temperature is taken of the sample presented, prior to sealing. On the random testing scenario, supervisor notification is given. Both supervisor and employee sign form, then escorted to dedicated testing area (usually a conference room with adjoining restrooms). More forms are filled out, both tester and employee verify regular and split sample bottle. If employee doesn't have the urge to pee, gotcha covered. Bottled waters and sodas are provided, none of this "I'll go to the cafeteria and be right back" stuff. Employee stays there until he/she produces a sample in restroom, with sample, and split sample separately sealed.

    Dougster most of these people are mistaking stress for pressure, it is true, stress causes pressure, but they aren't the same thing. IE. You cant pay your rent on time=stress, I need to make enough money to pay my rent=pressure. Another point to differentiate between a casual drug user and/or drinker making excuses for why it is necessary to use these substances, or I enjoy a cold beer when it is hot outside as opposed to I just smoke a joint because I want to. An excuse makes it seem like you have to, as opposed to just the sheer pleasure you derive from doing it.

But I will say this, there will never be anyone working for me who uses drugs, or psychiatric meds. I'm not saying that these things are immoral, its just that I know they change a person greatly, even when they are out of the blood stream. They change a person the same way that habitual alcohol consumption does. They make them like dry drunks. And as such, you cannot depend upon such people, because when pressure is on they will go into tune out mode. They are committed to not feeling their feelings. Where as I have spent now decades committed to feeling my feelings. I work with people I know, not just people I can pay wages to. SJG

LSD, cocaine, mushrooms, extacy, weed, and lots of other shit that I can’t remember. I’ve smoked two cigars in my life - but I’ve never smoked an actual cigarette. Never had any interest.

    "I want to try adderall and ketamine. I'm kind of scared to try DMT to be honest but it sounds fascinating." I completely agree about DMT. I think, though, that I would go through with it. As long as I had someone I trusted around me, and did it in a good mood when I didn't have anything to do, to try to have a better "trip" and not freak out after. It sounds like it just takes you to a different dimension. One of my guy friends from when I was like 19 had done DMT. I asked him what it was like and he said, "I was only out for like a minute, but when I woke up it felt like 1,000 years." That's crazy! And it's safe, which is a bonus. Adderall is ok, it lasts a few hours and is an upper. It can help you get things done. I only did it a few times even though I was diagnosed with ADD... I don't like stimulants, as they aren't relaxing, make my anxiety worse, and give me a lack of appetite. I love food. I agree about cigs, too. Just gross. Ketamine can be put on my list of "drugs I'll never try," along with crack, heroin, PCP, meth, etc.

He told me about a time he did PCP and stood in front of the bathroom mirror for hours as he was convinced that he was dead because he watched his face slowly decay until his skin came off and he eventually turned into a skeleton. He was still fucked up about it after the PCP wore off. That's not something I'd like to try.

    I tried cannabis and didn't really see what the point was. I bought it baked in a brownie at a party. I wanted to buy 2 or 3, because I'm a big guy and figured I need a big dose (not sure if that's how it works or not). He and my friend said absolutely not. Said I should feel good in a half hour. I didn't see what anyone was raving about. Maybe it's subtle? I went back after 45 minutes to more more; he wouldn't sell me any more. I tried cannabis again in a small pipe a couple years later at a New Year's Eve party 20 years ago. Maybe the effects were subtle. Again, I didn't notice what everyone raves about. I had a small prescription for oxycodone (sim. to percocet). I didn't use it recreationally, but I did trade it for hydrocodone after a couple doses. The oxy made it difficult to concentrate on technical work or do any higher math (calculus was not possible). It was like the symbols had no meaning. It had me concerned about driving my car. Plus always in the back of my mind was how addictive this stuff is. So I was mindful. With hydrocodone, I think it, too was a poor pain reliever. It was like it disconnected the front of my brain. All the higher-functions. I could sense my neck injury, and like the Terminator from the film, the "data" could be called "pain". But at least I could function and do math. I eventually went off of it (using it to sleep for a few more days before discontinuing it) and went to Sodium Naproxen (Aleve). I tried hydrocodone recreationally just to see what all the point was. I mean, there are girls out there that suck dick and swallow just to get opoids, so THIS SHIT MUST BE GOOD, right? So I took some extra to get high. Ok. This is the world's STUPIDEST HIGH. All it does it just disconnect your brain. You feel, Weeee!. If this is what other opiods are like, this is the world's stupidest high. That was the last time I ever took a pill. Compared with alcohol, everything above just sucked in comparison.

    I was given hydrocodone (Is it also called Vicodin or is that something else?) as a pain reliever but it made me feel awful. Kinda dizzy. Since I rarely take pain relievers when they are prescribed it took me a while to figure out what the cause was. It's strange because I heard Percocet was stronger, but it didn't give me any of the strange feelings that the hydrocodone did.

While some ppl can b productive from this, it isnt used to enhance productivity in most cases... And other things intoxicate ppl too: lust, greed, tv..which is why they are also bad for u I understand if ppl use it to cope and alter reality, but because it induce such an effect(alteration of reality or the normal state) , I would never fucking talk about it as if it is a good thing .

    DC9428 wrote, "Drugs are not the problem, drug abuse is." Yes I can agree on that to a point. Moderate use has only a moderate effect. But the thing is, there is no reason people need to use such drugs at all, ever. What ends up happening is people are using it to deal with the emotional ups and downs of life, to avoid having to live in their own skin. Spiritual development requires the opposite, learning to live in your own skin, and learning how to regulate your emotions when needed. So drugs are a negative, always. And then if some people are using them, many will end up clearly abusing them. The longer you use any mood altering chemical, the greater the chances you will develop a problem. And then the only real remedy is 100% total life long abstinence. It becomes virtually impossible to ever go back to moderation. The idea that you need the drugs or that they are somehow good for you, that is just a very dangerous and complete lie. Commenting to a girl about a guy in college who as drunk all the time, and the girl signs back to me, "But it's only on the weekends." Well, even if that were true, he is still stunting the hard work of spiritual growth, by making drugs instead of himself the driving force in his daily and weekly rhythms. He is making his school work depend upon weekend escapism. And of course it was never just on the weekends. It was every time he rolled out of bed 7 days per week until he needed to maintain blood alcohol content 24/7, or face withdrawal symptoms. And then it was not just ethanol, it was also nicotine and marijuana. I have to say that I have never met anyone who was able to just occasionally use any of these things without fairly soon getting to an unhealthy and destructive level of use and perceived need. And same also for caffeine, and you could say also for sugar and fatty foods. But the argument for using any of it in the first place is just completely bogus. And the prescription psych meds are just as bad if not worse, as are the prescription pain killers. I say that the prescription med problem is actually more serious for our society. And then street drugs are just something people can prescribe for themselves, but it is still no good at all. SJG David Gilmour / Richard Wright - Shine On You Crazy Diamond [view link]

    Like I said: it intoxicates you as it alters one's state of consciousness which is why I personally do not approve of any drugs whatsoever ..maybe shrooms, but I'm not talking about that right now. Although, I haven't tried them. While meditistion alters the state of consciousness, it does so in a better way. Proof of this is just using ur common sense. ..when ppl ask you "are u high?" It obviously isnt because you are doing thr brightest of actions . If a person is in the minority for which weed makes them more productive , or if one is like needing it to cope with something , then ok But for the majority of ppl who arent in that category, weed just alters consciousness in an unproductive way. Ok this is my last comment until thr next time I can comment which is Idk. And the reason I can say that is bc I'm not looking for a debate, in am just stating my view.

    The long term effects of marijuana on a persons mental faculties, even moderate long term use, are huge! I see this all the time. But everyone should have daily routines of meditation, prayer, spiritual practice, and exercise. These are how we grow, and these give us what many people have been conned into believing they can get from drugs. SJG

    Psychedelics and Ecstasy might not go to addiction that often. But that is because most people's lives are not organized to revolve around it. Most people who use coccain do quickly develop a serious problem Marijuana is a serious problem because people lie to themselves and convince themselves that it is not hurting them. It really is hurting them. "Drug use does not usually lead to abuse." Well yes it does, because using some kind of a drug which you absolutely do not need, that is already abuse. SJG

    To all :. I love it how DC makes it appear as if I am claiming that intoxicity is inherently bad for "moral" reasons .this is funny that he does this, because I justified my views towrads intoxcity with the same logic regarding why dating a lustful person is bad for u: such a person skews ur sense of reality, in the same way that drugs and alcohol do. While ppl may assume that drugs and alcohol dont harm u in the same way that a lustful person does, why don't u tell me how much healthier ur body and teeth would be if you didnt use drugs Or alcohol , or at least did so like one or two hrs a wk , as opposed to at least 3 or 4 hrs a week Like THE VAST MAJORITY of drug users do. .just had to type this to prevent u all from thinking I was claiming intoxicity is bad for any reason than why I actually said it was bad.. Thia dude over here trying to out words in my mouth. Conclusion: in my opinion at least ,intoxicity is bad ONLY if u do it like 3 hrs a week..since this amount of hours would deem it to be frequent use, which would imply frequently being out of touch with reality .

    I would like to try the hallucinogenic stuff (LSD or maybe 'shrooms or something along those lines). But I understand I'd need to get a trusted supply and take it in the company of a trusted, experienced person. Right now I don't have such a person (with background in hallucinogenic drugs). I have been following JS69 threads, where he writes about cannabis sativa and cannabis indicta, and writes (IIRC) that the latter has effects more along the lines that I'd be looking for right now. And that the stuff 20 is light years ahead of the stuff from 20 years ago. Also the O-D risk is very low, which appeals to me. Plus it could be an alternative to alcohol, which is a plus. But that takes me back to the part of me being a wage slave. And here in Ohio, we often have to provide urine samples to employers. And I can jeopardize (right now) my employ-ability. So maybe some day when I'm more established or where that's not a threat to me. But for Mrs. 77, she could enjoy it for now. I cannot. This would all be for very occasion recreational use. Not a regular thing.

    This is ridiculous. If you've never done drugs, don't comment. Especially if the reason you haven't done drugs is because of naivete, close-mindedness, or ignorance as opposed to just not wanting to. This is not a website to get judgmental over people's life choices. And FYI, weed not physically addictive. It is also less damaging to the body than almost any mind altering substance out there. It's less dangerous than Tylenol ffs. If someone gets "addicted" to weed, they have no will power to begin with and are probably also addicted to candy bars and video games. Weed is relaxing and therapeutic. Do I smoke weed to get high? Yes. I also smoke it to relax, help with my nausea, help me sleep, etc. It's an herb. It is also less addictive than caffeine. Also, no one who drinks alcohol on occasion or at all really should be judgmental towards those who smoke weed. Alcohol is undeniably more dangerous and more intoxicating than marijuana. Give me a break. It's also funny trapbaby304 that you said you have tried heroin once and will never use it again, but just a few days ago you you listed these as your top 5 pleasures: "1- Money 2- Making love 3- Sex with another woman 4- Coke or heroin 5- Getting faded and going out to a really good restaurant" Nicole1994's opinion is useless, she's clearly already a cokehead anyway.

    "Nicole's opinion isn't useless, its actually really good." You have an odd sense of humor.

Its a poor coping mechanism but I like being high. I admit I pretty much smoke weed every day and do coke whenever I want. I also like day drinking once or twice a week. Molly makes sex or clubbing better." ^^^That is an example of trying to justify drug use. Idk why anyone here would need to justify their drug use to anyone else here. I smoke weed to get high. I don't need to justify my marijuana use because there's absolutely nothing wrong with marijuana, it's not a hard drug and it does have a wide variety of therapeutic uses.

Lmao your mind is more deluded than any weed smoker's here, you're actually calling weed smokers "druggies" when the reality is that it's not dangerous or even comparable to hard drugs or Rx drugs. You're old, you've probably had some sort of surgery, and if you have, you've done a drug much "worse" than marijuana. You also seem to be obsessed with marijuana and/or people who smoke it.

    I assume anyone who says, "Nicole is right" is either a troll or is drunk or high themselves. No one is getting defensive, except, oddly, the people who don't do drugs and also don't know anything about drugs who are being defensive for some reason. If you don't do drugs, fine, but no, Nicole doesn't know wtf she's talking about. She is both naive and ignorant on this subject. My first semester of college I was 17. I had done a little drinking but hadn't smoked, or done any illegal drugs (besides drinking underage a couple days a week). I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life so I took random classes my first college semester, one being a class on the psychology of drugs and drug behavior. I am textbook learned on all 'mainstream' drugs and have also experimented with some. I know what I'm talking about. I started smoking weed around that age, because I was in college. I first got stoned at 17. My friends and sister started a year or so earlier than me, and I was always the sober one watching them get high and think they were acting very stupid, and I didn't want to act stupid like that. But the truth was, they were all 15-16 year old high schoolers when they first tried it, so of course they're going to act dumb. And it was not dangerous stupidity like how people get drunk. It was harmless stupidity and lots of laughing that at least provided some entertainment to me. Then I first got high, I was a stoner from then on. I never thought I would be. But me and my sister got a house together and I got high a few times and decided I want to smoke weed for the rest of my life. I've had times where I've stopped for a few months, but I'll never stop permanently. And by the time I was Nicole's age, which was only 3 years ago, I was way more successful than her. If weed is so bad, then why is Nicole a 24 year old sophomore bum, while I have two jobs, make very good money, have nice things, assets, my own place, way more education, credit, etc? There are plenty of complete stoners who do well in school and are just generally very successful.

    "Cuz can u read? I guess not coherently , since in that comment I was only talking about main activity (making post ) as opposed to my side hustle (responding to comments )" ^^^No, the problem is that your *incoherent* posts preclude anyone from being able understand you, except trolls. It is quite common here for people (both sober and otherwise) that cannot make sense of your posts, because they rarely do. "Also, if u wanna smoke weed as Much as Nicole gets on Tuscl when she isnt walking to class or waiting for the preofessor to talk about something in class that will actually be on the test as opposed to answering students' questions etc, then smoke weed for one hour max each week." ^^^And what's your point? If I smoked for an hour out of each week, I could theoretically get high every day. 60 minutes would give me time to smoke half a blunt to a full blunt 6 days a week at 10 minutes each time. So what is your point? "And as for ur response as to the regular use of weed, like with this comment towards u, I already addressed ur rebuttal in a previous comment lmao." ^^^Regular use of weed means nothing. I have friends who went to Ivy League schools who smoke every day. There are rich business owners who smoke every. There are successful people with MBAs, JDs, PhDs, MDs, etc, who smoke weed every day. And there are plenty who do not. Marijuana does not preclude a person from being a success; people preclude themselves. Marijuana is not addictive enough to be life-damaging to people unless those people are already prone to laziness and carelessness. "Men of tuscl, remember how I said that comparing weed to other drugs will make weed look good" ^^^Well, it's true, because weed is very good compared to other drugs. There are very few drugs more dangerous than weed. Weed has caused zero ODs. Thousands of people die from taking Tylenol, Ibuprofen, and Aspirin. People can even overdose from these and die; the same cannot be said for marijuana. "Lmao.I'm done.go intoxicate urself." ^^^Ooh, burnnn! You just told an adult to do something to themself that they, as an adult, should have the the choice to do responsibly anyway!

    Right...cuz I'm the only example of someone who doesnt smoke weed? This argument is about weed smoking vs non weed smoking , not Nicole vs Nina. I dont even agree with ur comparison about us , but I'm not gonna address it cuz I already have in the past (according to through the eyes of law school admission officers based on discussing my situation with many of them , not thru the eyes of a stripper ) so I'm not gonna waste my time. .it is about weed smoking vs not smoking. So u have to compare the effects of weed on the majority of weed users vs majority of non smokers... Look at nina trying to be turn a topic that applies to a broad range of ppl into a catfight between 2 girls Interesting .

"This argument is about weed smoking vs non weed smoking , not Nicole vs Nina." ^^^Trust me, I know. Your name doesn't deserve to be spoken in the same breath as mine.

", but I'm not gonna address it cuz I already have in the past (according to through the eyes of law school admission officers based on discussing my situation with many of them , not thru the eyes of a stripper ) so I'm not gonna waste my time." ^^^I would understand your desire to discuss your 'situation' with admissions officers, since you are a 24 year old sophomore with a subpar ability to take standardized tests, based on your own allegation of having the grades but not the test scores for Harvard, and the fact that you can't string together a coherent group of sentences here despite regularly reposting a revised view that is still always littered with typos and grammatic tragedies. ".it is about weed smoking vs not smoking. So u have to compare the effects of weed on the majority of weed users vs majority of non smokers..." ^^^Right, because comparing effects of weed on *non smokers* will produce a plethora of data about the effects of weed, right? "Look at nina trying to be turn a topic that applies to a broad range of ppl into a catfight between 2 girls" ^^^This isn't even worthy of a response. Again, since yesterday, you've now made nearly 30 posts on this discussion. I finally stop ignoring you after like your 24th post here and include facts that dispute your ignorance, so now it's called a 'cat fight.' That makes absolutely no sense.

    You can't read. I didn't say you didn't get into Harvard because of your GPA. I said you didn't get in because of your test scores. Standardized tests are a better measure of a person's actual intelligence than a GPA is. Also, different schools even have different standards for grades, and differing GPA scoring systems, making GPAs of lesser importance in determining how much a person actually knows and understands. We've heard you talking about Cornell over and over. I do not care to have you explain how you allegedly managed to transfer from Cornell to UT after taking a four year break upon completing a whopping 30 credit hours and STILL cannot compose a paragraph that makes sense and reads with decent grammar. Perhaps there were a couple people in admissions with fetishes for girls who are half horse have ball sacks. Haha.

    And, Nicoke, what are you even talking about with me trying to get into Harvard? I have never tried to get into Harvard. I've mentioned here once that my LSAT scores were on par (or higher) than the average person accepted there. I have never had an interest in going to Harvard, you are making things up. Law typically requires writing skills, which you lack. You will have to do tons of reading as well as writing in law school and you have shown zero potential of having the grammar skills to be able to compete with other law students. You would flunk out after everyone in your classes, including your profs, have had ample time to laugh at your ignorance. And that is assuming that you even get into law school. Taking four years off after your freshman year and not even having a job as an excuse for that absence is laughable at best. You live in an imaginary circus, but are a real-life clown.

    Law also requires sufficient reasoning skills, which you cant have by assuming that a standarized test score is worth more than an actual acceptance, especially an acceptance to the school of the same caliber .

I do not support Calvinism in any form or manner, so I do not have to do stupid meaningless things to rebel against it. Life is aesthetic. Sex, food, work, reading, study, meditation, these are some of its major rituals. None of them need to in any way support Calvinism.

Now I have a reason to learn! :) :) :) DC wrote, "so I will keep my sex drive" The idea that marijuana makes you horny is sheer nonsense. If you need marijuana to feel horny, then there are already things wrong in your life, dissociation and denial. People who use marijuana lightly come to have holes in their life and consciousness. So curious that there are people on this forum willing to make so many posts to try and defend their drug habits are harmless. We all need ALL OF OUR FACULTIES to be able to keep integrating and processing the things which happen. We need to be constantly re-examinging and re-interpreting our past experiences. This is a 24/7 life long job. People who use drugs to escape or feel good are committing psychic lobotomies on themselves. Dominic77, yes some people will use psychedelics. But how much better to be able to find such states by your own consciousness. Meditation, drumming, trance, hyperventilating, all of the known psychedelic states can be found easily, and especially that often reported LSD experience of lying on you back and seeing the walls and ceiling breathing.

Someone told me a place I took food to a couple times was for medical volunteers and had some padded cells.

    "The druggie stripper whore didn't contribute at all." Who's the druggie stripper whore who didn't contribute? How dare she? I certainly contributed (this is my thread, after all), but I am not a druggie as I just smoke weed... also not a whore because I don't suck or fuck for money and men here have confirmed this. There was that troll (trapbaby304) who claimed to be a hoe who loves heroin and takes five bumps of coke before work, so I guess that is the druggie stripper whore you're referring to (sounds like one to me), but you're too stupid to understand it's a troll account.

    And I got too carried away arguing with the trolls that I think I missed answering a question that I think DC asked me. The question is why I would not try ketamine. I would not try ketamine because it's a dissociative like PCP and DXM and I'm not trying to lose my mind. A kid I went to high school with who was a few grades above me was telling me about this time where he took a bong hit during lunch and his "friends" had laced the weed with PCP without telling him. He started to freak out and thought he was dying and after he got home, he didn't come out of his room for two days and was so fucked up from the incident that he was paranoid for years after and wouldn't even eat a chip unless he saw the actual bag of chips being freshly opened. But let's change the subject to a different person and different drug... ...When I was like 19 I had a place with my friend and a lot of kids that I never hung out with, but were from the area and/or went to the same high school as me, started hanging out at my place. So this kid does DXM (robo tripping). I knew that he had done the DXM, and I chose not to partake. Only one other kid did it with him, and the other kid was experienced with it. This kid was not. We were all sitting around my dining room table, it was a large table and there was always a game of spades going on with several people pulling up chairs to watch, while others watched TV in my living room or cooked dinner in the kitchen. So I'm sitting at the table where there are several people gathered, and I'm monitoring this kid who just took the DXM, because I had never been around anyone who had done it and I was scared he was going to vomit all over my house if you want to know the truth. I told my twin sister I was concerned about the kid, let's call him Charles. My roommate and I were letting my twin live at our house because she'd just broken up with her boyfriend and had no place to stay (this was before she became a dope fiend). Twin starts making fun of me for being concerned about Trippin' Charles, saying I'm overreacting and that he was fine. Apparently I was the only one paying attention to Charles because I realized that for the last half hour or so, he had withdrawn from the conversation with everyone else and was just hunched over in a very crooked manner in the chair, staring at the table with his face all twisted up. Something bad was happening. Then some of the guys who were sitting next to him finally realized something was wrong. They tried to ask Charles if he was ok but he would just either ignore them or twist his face up some more, enough to give them a nasty look before retreating his eyes back to the top of the table. People started to realize I was right when I said something was wrong with him. I was on my laptop at the other end of the table trying to ignore his weirdness. Next thing I know, his body is hovering over mine, he is standing up but has his body all bent over so he can look over my shoulder with his face a few inches from my laptop, as if he is very interested in, or can even understand, what I was doing on my laptop. I was freaked out and moved to a different area of the dining room. He then sat down and began to dry heave. Then he wandered into the kitchen to dry heave in the sink for a few minutes. He was finally able to talk to people, but no one could understand what he was saying so he gave up for a while. The next hour or so was spent with him alternating between sitting down and scowling at the table or floor, occasionally whispering to himself in something that was not a real language, and looking extremely scared. Every 20 mins or so he would get up, go to my kitchen sink, and dry heave. Then he would return to the dining room table, sit down, and scowl like a demon from a horror movie. It literally haunted me. Then eventually, he got up and made the first real sentence since before he took the DXM. He said, "Nina, I'm gonna sleep in your room tonight," and proceeded to walk into my bedroom. I was telling my friends, "no, he is not allowed to sleep in my bedroom." One of my friends went and got him. I was genuinely scared of him at this point, because his behavior was so creepy and tragic. One of our friends ended up taking him home later that night. That day was one of my first times actually hanging out with Charles. He was a normal 18/19 year old guy all day. However, I saw him a few times after taking the DXM, and HE WAS NEVER THE SAME. He was always a bit off after that. I know ketamine has been compared to DXM and PCP since they're all dissociatives. I would never, ever want to look or act like the creature I saw that night.

    That's how I typically feel, but my first time taking shrooms I took a full 8er. Well, almost an 8er, I regurgitated a mushroom cap after trying to swallow it whole with a swig of Gatorade. It tasted so bad. It was one of my best drug experiences, though. I was with a group of friends who I loved and trusted, I had made myself a playlist of songs to listen to which helped me experience the closed eye visuals, and we all just hung out in the park underneath a huge tree sitting on the grass tripping in our own ways. It was the first thing I tried recreationally besides weed. I remember my sister did not do shrooms with us, but someone has salvia so she tried that. I was feeling so good from the shrooms, and didn't want salvia to mess up my trip, so I stayed away from it. But I remember her taking it during my shrooms trip. She had tried it once before but hadn't inhaled it enough to have an effect. So this time, I watched her take a hit, and I asked her "do you feel anything?" She said no. I waited a little longer and asked again, "ok, now do you feel anything?" and she answered with something that also was not any currently spoken language, and she seemed to stop mid sentence. Then her chin became glued to her chest and she had a weird grin on her face and was drooling. It obviously didn't last long. After she snapped out of it, we're like, "so what did it feel like?" She said everything was just dull shades of black and white, and had a depressing feel to it, and that the really depressing part was that it seemed much more real than actual reality. And she said there was a huge dome, that she could only describe as being "large enough to reach the sky but bigger," and that the dome separated two people --- me and my guy friend --- from the rest of the group. This was before the DXM thing, back when my sis and I had a house together, so it was way before she was a dope fiend. She was just experimenting, which I give her props for, because a few days prior we had all watched one of our friends try salvia on our living room floor and freak out so badly none of us wanted to try it after that.
  • NinaBambina
    •
    6 years ago
    Yeah, I only did the 8er because the guy friend that I was on the same side of the dome with in my sister's salvia trip brought me a Xanax to the park in case I started having a bad trip. But I didn't end up needing it. Same here with salvia. We researched it and it was the closest thing to DMT that we could get our hands on, and it was legal. But I never tried it, and a few of my friends had no interest trying it after watching our friend "James" do it. We were all just chilling in my living room smoking weed, maybe a couple of us were having a beer, and a friend of mine had bought some salvia. But she said she wanted someone else to try it before she did, so James volunteered. He said he had done it once before. So he hits the salvia and the rest of us there were girls. Me, and like five of my girl friends. After James takes the hit, we're like, "how does it feel?" and he just laid down on my carpet and curled into the fetal position. Then once he got back to earth, we were all like, "so what did it feel like?" and he just silently went into the other room and sat alone for a long time. I brought him some ice water and waited until he was ready. When he came back into the living room, he said the trip was made worse by all of us asking if he felt anything because he couldn't understand us. Then he said something about it feeling like he was being sucked into a Sharpie (weird) and held down. I can't recall a lot else of what he said, but it was an extremely unpleasant experience. No one else did salvia that night. We just stuck to weed and maybe a lil booze. One of the girls tried it a few days later and liked it a lot. She thought it was fun and said it felt like being trapped in a Super Mario video game. She started doing it whenever she had the opportunity. Not all day every day like a drug addict, but once or twice a week for a few weeks until the novelty wore off... ***See, this is how the thread should be. Instead of arguing about legality and morality of drugs, it should be to share crazy stories.

    DC9428 - I did my first-time experimenting with groups of trusted friends. When it came to things like psychedelics, there was always someone who wasn't tripping in case someone started having a bad trip. The last two times I did shrooms I was at my mom's house, also around people I trust. I agree about acid and shrooms. Very different, but I've only tripped on acid once. The high was more electric than Shrooms, which was just very pleasurable and relaxing. Acid was a cool experience, but shrooms was better. My closed eye visuals my first shrooms trip were amazing. It looked like I was looking through a kaleidoscope, and there was a Being. It looked like a Hindu god, I guess, although I could really only make out its shape. It was moving along with the music I was listening to and at one point started holding something out to me, but idk what it was.

    SJG posted, "Dominic77, yes some people will use psychedelics. But how much better to be able to find such states by your own consciousness. Meditation, drumming, trance, hyperventilating, all of the known psychedelic states can be found easily, and especially that often reported LSD experience of lying on you back and seeing the walls and ceiling breathing." True. If I'm going to keep my mind open, I do owe it to myself to try non-drug alternatives, first. See if they are enough. Then decide whether or not I should even pursue drugs. "Meditation, drumming, trance, hyperventilating" ^ and yoga!

    I'm remarkably square when it comes to recreational drugs. Booze primarily with highly infrequent pot use. As I said earlier (in another thread, I think), it's an odd function of TUSCL that pretty much every single dancer picks up a few weirdly-fixated trolls the moment they decide to post her consistently. I generally get along with Nina, and even when I've disagreed with her it has never inspired me to create a whole new profile dedicated to trolling her. The only thing she does that greatly annoys me is not post more pictures of herself.

    95% of what people think is reality is just a persons perception. Nina pushes that to 100% of her life is simply a perception of what her life is. The reality is that she consistently brags and posts bullshit lies on here that people have called her out on, not because anyone hates her, but because it’s a choice to not put up with her bullshit. Like how great her education was and how she was going to get a JD and be a top notch lawyer, a corporate lawyer at that!! At the time there were several intelligent members who called “bullshit” on her, and the chickens have come home to roost. She’s proven herself to be Non credible. This drug thread goes so far to act the fool, meaning who cares if you use drugs, but it’s fun to point out the hypocrisy in people. I never understood the white knight syndrome so many PLs have, but I guess I don’t have a void to fill as much as they do, but to each their own. The ignore function works both ways, so eat your words.

    ^^^ definitely a bitch I want to avoid, so you’ll never worry about me wanting to have whatever you got. As the kids always say, it isn’t what it isn’t. In this case it’s a stripper who is ashamed that she hasn’t made much of an impact in her professional career, so she creates a smoke screen to make it appear her choices are so awesome. I can now without hesitation add her to my tagline along with Icee and SJG! Congrats. Over 90% of real estate agents quit the profession within the first 5 years, but at least Nina can supplement her “career” by selling herself to old white men for companionship. Odds are she’ll get pregnant then and her narrative will change to taking time off to raise the baby. Fact is, most committed mothers can and will juggle a career and family. We shall see, but in my experience it’s usually the loudest voice in the room generally has the most to hide. That’s narcissistic Nina for you.

    The only drug I've really tried is marijuana way back in the day. First time I did it I had a bad trip. Might of smoked too much that time or maybe it was laced with something. I was a teenager at the time and did it for a few months. That was almost 30 years ago.

    Never did heroin or oxy. Love to drink and smoke weed but did all the rest. During summer moving van season if we needed to drive long sessions after a heavy day of lifting, we'd snort some crank, which is now called meth. Keeps you awake. I used to love to trip but haven't since I was 41. Wife wanted to do it together and I would never chance doing it with her, because occasionally, after you trip, you don't like something or someone that you did before.

    I'm glad this thread got resurrected; more members are sharing their experiences! For the record, I've yet to try any new drug since starting this thread (unless you count the antidepressant I was prescribed in 2020). Most of my drug experimentation was in my late teens. I have done shrooms a couple more times since posting this and it's always been pleasant and eye-opening, but the first time was the best. Probably my best drug experience. I'd like to get some good shrooms and take a low-to-moderate dose with my boyfriend. Still will never touch crack, meth, heroin, or pcp.

    I think I totally forgot to put promethazine on the original list, and "lean" which I've done only a couple times, yearrrs ago. But the promethazine I'm actually prescribed regularly for my nausea which I usually get because of my anxiety. Also did seroquel a couple times to help me sleep, both times were very unpleasant. Also forgot to add Zofran, which doesn't really get you high, it's just an anti emetic (anti nausea) along with compazine, another anti emetic. I have problems with nausea stemming from my emetophonia as a kid.

    I do so much coffee/caffeine I don't know if I could stay conscious without it. I use to drink occasionally to shake it off when I was dwelling on bad thoughts. But, now that it's convenient to get them, I prefer a 3 or 5 mg THC edible generally. Psychedelics seem like they'd be cool to try, maybe I will sometime under the right circumstances.
