Are all of us somewhat damaged mentally forever just because we have experienced what a pleasure drugs bring?
Will I still crave for drugs even if I stay clean for the next 10 years? Does this ever end?
Not to be a buzzkiller, but no I know I'm fucked forever.
Nah no worries buddy. I think we're all have this disease in common. Maybe someone would prove me otherwise and shine a glimmer of hope.
I know plenty of people who had their fun with drugs and moved on to something else.Nah no worries buddy. I think we're all have this disease in common. Maybe someone would prove me otherwise and shine a glimmer of hope.

Doing the same thing over and over, burning through cash and having nothing to show for it plus all the rest of the limitations that addiction/habit can bring upon a person's life. Yeah, it can definitely get old.
Sometimes people find things that they like more than drugs. Travelling, a career that they are actually passionate about, some hobby.
A lot of people do get past it, even some who were into heavy gear. It can take some work though, sometimes a wake-up call.
Drugs can definitely have their place. There have been times that I've stopped taking everything, even weed, and after not too long I'm reminded of the reasons that I started using drugs in the first place.I'll be the first to admit that I have a problem with intense apathy and I don't really feel strongly about anything. What drew me to drugs though is that they enhance life and alleviate a lot of that apathy. I get a lot of shit done when I'm high believe it or not as someone who loves downers.
Like I said though I understand that life can't always be fun and experiencing pain and negativity is necessary. I've learned a lot about myself in the past 2 years, which were the objectively worst years of my life thus far. In a perverse way I kinda enjoy pain now, and fully appreciate it's necessity.

I think there is often an underlying thing, whether it's circumstantial or psychological or maybe a medical issue at the heart of habitual drug use and in a lot of cases it's possible to change those circumstances or that mindset or whatever it is.
When the drugs aren't really having a positive effect and are more of a burden than anything, I think that's when it's a good time to re-evaluate.
Probably should take some of my own advice there
On Topic: somewhat high. Little bit of lyrica and some Valium. Woke up early, took some relaxants to try and get back to sleep, but now it's sunrise. Oh well.
For me at least, I would say yes. I can't stand sobriety at all. If I'm not high then I'm not enjoying being alive. You'd think that I'm addicted to a substance by now, but I'm not. It's more like I'm addicted to getting high off anything I can get my hands on than being addicted to a specific substance.Are all of us somewhat damaged mentally forever just because we have experienced what a pleasure drugs bring?

why not? benzos are the greatest drug of all (Alprazolam that is )I literally don't want benzos.
Heroin meth combo is fucking godlike. Not overly hyperactive just feeling laser focused but euphoric.
IME, schizo is right. It's my favorite drug combo as well. No nod, no tweak; pure bliss.
