A or B - Thought Experiment: Diachronic euphoria or permanent abstinence???

Pick one


  • Total voters

I'm not sure. If the option of using chemicals to reach that altered state were removed, would the effort I expend being able to afford and then actually procure such chemicals be transfered into improving myself either through exercise, more education or some kind of exploration of my mind.
If I was actually given the option, I think B, but while we're just playing, then A.
 
I would pick A. Because, you guys picking B didn't notice, There still is a way out with A. You just don't have the insta free from drugs. I can choose A and still abstain later in life.
 
smackem, I did think about that, but I'm trying to be realistic about myself and despite knowing that overall my drug related activities are harming me and my progress in life, I still haven't made the choice to cut them out completely.
It's not all negative, by any means, most of the time it's great and everything I want out of it, then other times I get into such a massive mess that if they weren't involved I wouldn't have got into.
The drugs aren't to blame, of course (how could they be, they're just chemicals), it's my relationship to them.
 
I’ll finally answer my own question. I’d go with B. As much as I believe that life without drugs is boring, I know I’m kidding myself. Life without drugs would be a whole lot more interesting, just harder work. But to my mind it’s the hard work that makes life interesting. Don’t want to sound corny but you can get high on other things than drugs. But it’s no easy choice.

B) Because i choose to accomplish something great with my life and contribute to the world, rather than all you A) people who would do nothing but sit around all day high
 
^ A bit presumptious, no?

The question, as I read it, asks if you would choose a life-time supply of your drug of choice - it doesn't necessarily follow that constant use would be involved. You would have the choice. I imagine the novelty would soon wear off, but at least you'd always have the option open :).

Muhahahahah ....... you think you would have a choice ?

Maybe with weed or psychs, but the way people here are talking about oxy and blow........ choice ? ........ =D
 
^ Ahh! The youth of today - so full of boundless energy and enthusiasm for the chemical world: You have a point :D.

I'm sure I'm not alone here in having gone through periods of great plenty - "What? Another speedball? Now? Nah, I'll leave it. Can't be arsed". It's fun for a while, but you get bored soon enough. If you're high all the time, then you aren't really high at all. Or maybe I'm just getting jaded in my old age...
 
Definitely A...I honestly couldn't pass that up. If I had a lifetime supply of H, like whenever I wanted it, I could just sell half and buy other drugs. That way, I could take smack 3 days a week (with breaks), do meth/coke/MDMA for 2 days a week and do benzos/booze/GHB/Ketamine for all the other days. Then I wouldn't get physically hooked and I'd be high like 24-7 with a fairly low tolerance to everything.

I would only choose B if I was guaranteed that I wouldn't have mental cravings for any drug for the rest of my life...physical withdrawal is one thing, but psychological addiction is the worst and definitely the hardest to break.
 
If I picked A I'd end up a miserable addict and probably OD (prob feel pretty fucking good as well though!). If I picked B I'd have no cures to my depression/anxiety.

I lose.

Ha! You have wonderful imagination and optimism. I wish you all the luck in the world with that one :D.
 
A, sure, i'd slowly become a hardcore junkie living in a closet shooting up all day, but free dilaudid or cocaine non stop? Ill fucking love it.
 
I guess A, assuming I could still use other drugs, right? I'm mean, my first-choice DOC would be supplied for free forever, but I could still procure and use (and feel!) other drugs independently, extracurricularly, peripherally, whatever, right?

A lifetime supply of heroin would be little comfort to me if I couldn't smoke weed along with it or take a big dose of LSD every few months. :(

And, as someone said, you could still abstain if you chose (and sell your free drugs when you do! :D)

B. is just lose-lose. Fuck that.

(A is winning handily; what a bunch of fucking degenerates we are!) :D
 
Because there's no free supply (same situation I'm in now:)) and even if you run across drugs, they won't work (no thanks).

The only plus is no addiction. Granted, that could definitely be a plus, but hardly worth your volition and ability for ANY chemical enjoyment.

It would be like getting castrated to avoid having your heart broken in the future. If that sounds good to you, go for it. :D
 
There was a time where i can guarantee you that i would be dead if i choose A and obtained a huge amount of coke, but now the sheer thought of doing lines makes me sick. And i can pretty much get whenever i want for close to nothing so my 16 month abstinence is not contingent upon cost, or availability. Which is why I would still choose A, but that is because I really just want to be able to grow weed freely and take psychs whenever I want.
