Hypothetical Meth Binge Question...

[ElegiesOfDeath]

So I know many people have done the crazy 5 or 6 day binges, and many people binge rather regularly. So I have a hypothetical for you guys

It's the weekend/holiday/etc
You've been up 72 hours smoking the crystal
Suddenly, you get a call. You work in 12 hours!

Do you
A) attempt to sleep as much as possible?
Or
B) power through with more crystal?

 

[PriestTheyCalledHim]

I've never used crystal meth and do not want to; but in the hypothetical scenario I would just try to get some rest for 12 hours. Everyone I know that is or was into meth used to just take a Valium or Xanax on the comedown and force themselves to sleep when it came to work.

I would definitely get some rest. You won't even be fully recovered in 12 hours, I guess, but if you try to power through without sleeping, you might be pushing things too far.

 

[Burnt Offerings]

Take Xanax or another minor tranquilizer and initiate "precipitated crashing".

No one who has any respect for their profession would go to it on 4 days of no sleep & high as a kite on strong stimulant drugs 8)

 

[JustMethinAround]

I would definitely say that I would have to rest.... But because im an addict, I would probably stay up.

Not only that but when I crash out, I dont wake up for anything.

That's depends on what kind of work it is. If I was doing skilled work like brain surgery I would sleep, if I was doing manual labor without dangerous equipment like sweeping floors I would probably keep going. Who am I kidding...I'd call back and make an excuse up to call out and keep going. So glad those days are over though and I don't have to screw over my employer and coworkers any more!
