So I was wondering,
What exactly does everyone here that uses for fun or ligit needs their meds for a medical condition (no wise ass remarks like "my condtions is I use cuz I enjoy it" i mean ligit illness ok?
(notify which you are when you respond please)
What do you do for income? Do you have a family? Married?
Are they aware of your drug use?

Ill start:
Im a freelance writer, mostly ghost writer for magazines, books, blogs (not every blog is really written by that famous person, now you know!)
Do my co-workers/clients know know? Nope, how many people look at you like an addict EVEN when you are FUCKING dying and this med gets you to get up and work and keep your food down. Man I hate hypocrites-and Imhate to saynthis but most od the super "goody good" tyoes are nothing but trampy losers and usualky I have learnd are the religion church pushers (no not everyone, my apologies for insulting any church goers on here. I have just personally had bad experiences with a lot of church goers.)
Why do I use meds? I am terminally ill and only 24, some life huh? Got a killer career at 21 to lose it sooner than the time most get to where I am in their careers.
Family? Yep.
Aware of my use-well yeah duh I'm sick.

Ok your turns.....
 
I own a night/dance club. Axis/Radius
I quit opiates and benzos so I do everything else I get my hands on. I still will take benzos, just no more access to them. No street dealers I know who sell it and not prescribed it anymore. I take amphetamines daily as well.
I have anxiety problems, ADD and bipolar so I self medicate for my problems and also just take for recreation.
 
I am a football scout by nature that is currently working as an NFL draft "expert" for multiple publications/websites.

I began using opiates for a severe hip condition caused by birth defects but it spread to general abuse and I am currently on methadone maintenance.

Most people I work with don't know about it but abusing pain killers is extremely common among football people so it wouldn't shock/bother most. More than half of the people I work with use them regularly. A team doctor gave me a shot of morphine a couple years back without even bothering to ask why I wanted it.
 
i'm a professional muscian that plays guitar in a successful band with a seven figure contract and i work studio lead guitar for artists(some of the biggest names in music) for a large fee per hour.

to sum up how successful i am, i have: a beach house in Newport Beach, CA; three exotic cars(2000 Lamborgini Diablo, 1996 BMW 850ci, 2010 Mercedes CL65 AMG); millions of dollars in the bank; a trust fund from my parents(i get even more when they die; and whole bunch of other crap.
 
How anyone with our habits could survive with that much access to money is beyond me.

If I ever had that kind of money I would be dead within 6 months I'm afraid.

i can't count the times i've almost died.

trust me after while you'd get used to it.

also my habits are probably some of the worse on this whole site and i'm alive and well.
 
Ahhh......So your the one who has been getting all the good luck that has evaded me through the years :)
 
i'm a part time pharmacy tech
still living with parents
student
i am rx'd a minimul amount of xanax and i also have an rx for adderall

i get random UA's so it's VERY RARELY i do any of the fun stuff i used to do like MDMA. so i sometimes take a lil extra adderall if i'm bored. or i smoke something legal.


sucks =/
 
I'm a stripper and a server. I don't have a drug problem...well if smoking pot everyday is a drug problem I do that...I have tried just about every drug but never been hooked...did a lot of coke in college...the thought of coke now makes me nauseated. Recently experimenting with opiates...but that's kind of a secret. I dont tell my husband I have been because he's a former benzo and opiate junky. I dont want to influence him to mess with them again...it was bad bad bad news when he was on them...

Dude can I send you my demo? It's the shit, really!!

I'm just kidding but I bet you get that a lot. I just moved to the city I'm in, just another week till I start my job as a cook for a meh restaurant. Nothing special, but it'll pay for the bills, and most of my habits. :) I used to play rhythm guitar in a meh metal band. It paid for my partying on the weekends but unfortunately I had to move for personal reasons. I'm currently looking for another band.

Am I weird for thinking that I could never stand someone I loved being a stripper?


I am only 26 but I guess I am a bit old fashioned. I want to feel like I have someone that nobody else gets any part of.......

I am not an overly jealous person either but I guess I must be to some extent....
 
He met me at a club I worked at...go figure. My ex before him hated it, we fought about it...my husband isn't jealous and trusts me.
 
I have my own business dog trainer, but the economy has fucked me over. So, I work for a major healthcare organization in IT.

I currently live in SoCal, but I used to live in Jacksonville, FL. When I lived there I was the dog trainer for a few of the Jacksonville Jag players and a few other million dollar clients. Back then I was partying my ass off. Everything I could get my hands on.

I was addicted to opiates for over 8 years, been over 4 years clean. I still like to indulge, just not opiates. The sucky thing is, I don't have any friends in SoCal. And, I just broke off a 7 year relationship with my bf. So, all I do is work.

I am seriously looking for the one client that will make my business take off again. All it takes is one person to start talking about how great you are and then everyone wants you.
 
Good thread! I've always wondered what all you fellow freaks do for a living.

I'm a mine engineer. I have acute anxiety problems approx. 5-10 times a month that I treat with mild opiates (Lortab), and benzos (Valium, Xanax). I live in a beautiful part of the country, married, three little boys, and I love my job - even though it stresses me out a lot. My wife is aware of my drug use and is supportive of it because it turns my Mr. Hyde back into Dr. Jeckyll. =D I don't drink alcohol - and I don't abuse my meds. My dad is an alcoholic and a chain smoker and I've seen how substance abuse can destroy personal and familial health. I exercise regularly and eat healthy, but it still doesn't curb my anxiety and social phobia issues.
