Mephedrone Addiction

Not open for further replies.
Well as I said in my previous post, i've felt like a walking dead person for the last 8 weeks. It is a struggle to perform everyday actions, my fatigue was never this bad before.
 
Yo dudes. Long time reader and all that shit.

I hate to get all deep and that but I've found the path to true happiness is philanthropy. Do stuff for your parents, or grandparents, or even help out a local charity. I can say it's more satisfying than any drug I've had or having lots of money in the bank. Might be worth a shot for you anyway.
 
Yes but philanthropy involves getting up, doing loads of stuff then getting a reward of feeling good; in todays 'instant gratification' society, the instant reward of drugs is much more appealing to many. In fact this instant gratification attitude is responsible for a lot of society's ills IMO

Don't get me wrong I think doing things for charity is very rewarding, only it involves a big initial investment that many aren't prepared to make (anyway I do stuff for animal charities as when it comes to people I'm a dyed in the wool misanthrope ;) )



if you havnt got any hobbies i suggest trying to find something your intrested in and turn it into a hobbie

For which you will need a flask of weak lemon drink (does anyone remember the hobby spot on Fist of Fun?)

Thanks! Think I should be ok with it in the long run. Was seriously craving some yesterday and just as I was leaving work was about to go down to the local head shop to buy some. Then I thought - Fuck it, what's the point?! I'm going to buy a gram, get fucked up, be wrecked tomorrow in work, probably want to buy more then. If I can keep that attitude I should be fine... Needless to say didn't buy any yesterday!

Anyway, Stashes, I'm in a similar position, and I know I need to make a clean break with this stuff sometime soon.

Story Phil. Good to see you speaking openly about it the other night. Edited to fuck I know. I'll be making a clean break myself soon. It's a cunt of a drug imo. I have always loved my pills and shit and was discussing with friends recently. Meph is too easy to come by which is why we end up on these mad 5 day sessions. Pills take a bit more work to get so we're planning to go back to the good ol' days of getting fucked up on stuff other than Meph!!

I have never taken it more than once a week and I hope I never will, because I'm sure this one is both physically and mentally addicting.

Not to me it isn't. Not even remotely. To be honest it's hard for me to think of anything less addictive than Mephedrone.

Like with all things there's a tiny minority of people with addictive natures who will get addicted. If Meph didn't exist they'd find something else to be addicted to. Perhaps a fat man taking a dump on their chest.
 
That's the second time you've used that last example Ismene, trying to tell us something? ;)

For those with an addictive nature meph does seem to be particularly nasty, mainly because of the easy availability and cheapness which means there's nothing in the way to stop people taking it constantly. If cocaine were in the same situation we'd be seeing the same.
 
My apologies inso, I've just had that particular image on my mind for a few days :)

Sure - I can understand people taking it because it's cheap and you can order it over the internet but I can't stand this bollocks about it being a "devil drug that people are helpless in the face of". Surely it's up to people to grow a pair of balls and go "You know what, I've been taking a gram a day for a month, maybe it's time to have a break"
 
Is it the drug thats addictive or the fact that people are addicted to getting off their faces?

I mean I have the desire to take mephedrone but if better drugs came my way then....
 
i reckon people are getting addicted to some thing that actually works again. alot of the young generation have never had proper drugs so meph must just seem amazing to them
 
I suppose it's like fat people who can't stop eating mars bars. Do you blame the mars bar or the fat person?

Cool that u brought this up. It's kinda my strategy for feeling like shit. When I'm tired and depressed I think about how I can help my SO instead of sitting around and feeling sorry for myself. And then I set myself little goals..helping out with stuff then taking a break. It might also work with parents. It has helped a lot. Doing things might seem impossible when u r tired and depressed, but when u start doing even something small, u will feel better yourself and the people around u will treat u better and be happier. Can't go wrong with this attitude. It makes life worth living again when u feel needed and appreciated.

Might not work for everyone, but it has helped me not relapse multiple times.

Also the stuff F&B said about instant gratification is definitely true. But u don't need need a big investment to do philanthropy for the people around u. Do what u r capable of. Volunteering doesn't cost anything, just ur time and most places even feed u for volunteering and give bus passes and stuff like that. Don't think too big about things u can't do...so then u'll get discouraged. There are tons of things u can do for the people around u. Especially if u have people that have done a lot for u, like some parents and SOs, make them happy by doing things for them.

The drug has something to do with it. Very few people get addicted to drugs that don't fuck with levels of dopamine in the brain. People are designed to become addicted in a sense to increasing levels of dopamine in the limbic system. Without it there'd be no motivation to do anything. It's the way we are

I guess mephedrone serves as a good counterexample for why it might be a dangerous idea to have drug legalisation :(
 
not really it shows us the dangers of poor drug education and no regulation more IMO
