Hi, one thing thats been on my mind about my drug career alot is how long is long enough?

As a child/teen of the 90's, I proper caned it from 1992 to 2000. Pills, Speed, Bugal, Trips, Weed. Then I have calmed down bit by bit over the last few years.

I have had some Epic nights/sessions/festivals and no real issues along that way, but thats down to the crowd/s I hang about with.

But is there a time that you should give up and grow up?

If it makes a differenace, I don't have kids.
 
I'd say if it causes you issues then stop. If you can use responsibly and enjoy doing so then why need to stop?
 
Hi,

Always responsible, always have fun. Not really an issue, just a topic to see what other people think.

I don't go clubbing anymore, I know I am a little past that.

I guess its because with snowboarding I still mix with lots of teens and 20 somethings, and so still act that way.
 
Excited says things change. People change. Def as you get older you got to party less but I want to party less. When I do get down though its fully on.
 
Nobody speaks the truth?

What a nihilistic point of view...! I bet that is almost as true as: "Everybody is fucked up!" or "Everybody IS crazy!"

Okay....no point to be made here.

The time to call it a day is when you only do what you do cos that's what you have always done and you no longer get the same enjoyment from it as you once did.
 
Depends.......i have friends that have gotten married & have kids now so they have slowed down a lot. I mean, you want to set a good example for your kids. I have one friend thats 12 years older than me & he still parties.........everyone is different. Some people never grow out of the party scene & still party until the day they die. Obviously you gotta like what youve been doing for years if you still want to do it.

Some people get tired of all the b.s. that can come from certain situations & quit. I have a cousin that partied hard from 19 until he was 29, thats 10 years but then bought a business & figured hes not getting any younger, might as well do something else & put some money in his pocket as well (partying was a full time job for him) although he did work a full time job as well for those 10 years & partied even when he worked.

You will know yourself when its time to slow down, whether it because of health reasons (hope no one goes through this) or other reasons like stated above.
 
Simply put.. When the cons outweigh the pros. If it is affecting your life/health (physical or mental) in a negative way I would say it'd be best to quit. If your drug use affects your family,partner or friends, that too will in turn affect your relationship with them. It's up to you how you handle that.

You don't have to give up anything as long as your use is controlled, and by that I mean you should be able to function despite the drugs you occasionally take. I don't know how much you are using but as long as you really have it under control and you're doing good in life, not hurting anyone, I see no reason why you should stop.

I don't know how much you use though, so be honest with yourself asto whether or not it's affecting you.
 
If you twitch and your leg bolts out everytime you sneeze, I think you should stop doing what you're doing.
 
If youre responsible with it and can maintain a normal lifestyle while using I dont see a need to stop unless you have a desire to.
 
I've thought about this so much and I just don't know, how does one call it a day anyways? when do you know? (your question) what do you do about it? is it the right thing to do?
 
I have only been going for two years now. It's funny to see this as I have been thinking to myself 'Will I get tired of this?'. I don't know yet, I guess I wont know till I know ay? :)

I think you just know
 
I think it loses it's level of appeal, so you don't do it as much. As it slides down the priority poll uou replace it with other activities. This is a long and subtle process
 
If it becomes a serious problem - obviously then you should be re-thinking your use.
I know people who are much older than I am (40-50 yrs old) and they are still using drugs. I think you start using them less. But I notice even from 1-2 yrs ago (started just under 2 yrs ago), I use a lot less. It also depends about other things in your life. I could use a lot more when I was in college and working a couple part time jobs. Now that I have a more "real" job and am really focused on work, I can't use as much.
Definitely having kids affects things. But I do know a couple people who have kids and they go out like once a month and get high, it works for them.
