Are you a Harm-Reducer outside of bluelight.nu?

I notice myself being the kid who watches out or informs people when they come to me for drugs, and my friends aways come to me when they want to know what the effects are of drug combos... etc.. i naturally have a liking for spreading knowledge of illegal substances.

its gotten so extreme that some ppl take drugs just to impress me or do it with me, ive got a harem of kids that follow me everywhere... and dammit its getting annoying!! :p :D

what about you guys?

No i don't, just let people find out for themselves. I wouldn't go around telling people about certain drugs and their effects.
 
Saftey First!

I do that. Generally because I take an interest in what drugs I'm having and what effects they have, people then ask me for advice.

I'm always happy to help educate people, but the problem is when they some of the more impressionable people will exceed their limits to impress, or want to try a drug that they've never tried and know nothing of, just because they happened to see my friends and I enjoying said drug.

I also often end up being the guy who (desipte being all kinds of messy on the inside) has to hold it together to look after the people who can't. :\
 
well i am the one that knows the most about drugs of al my friends so yeah there always asking is this safe or is this a nice combo but i don't really mind that....i haven't got a harem of kids follow me everywhere because that would suck.....

thats me.

i share my knowledge whenever i can, but we havent introduced anybody new to my circle of friends in FOREVER, and i've shared pretty much everything relevant with my current circle. i've got mild social anxiety (even on mdma, it blows) so i cant share easily with strangers, but i still try.
 
I do - but not to everyone. I dont wanna appear to be too much of a 'nerd'. Most of my friends dont spend their lives on the net like myself, and wouldnt take much notice of anything i say relating to "www.website.com', hey you really shouldnt do that every weekend as it fucks up the seritonin in ur body, u should get one of these to check for dodgy drugs." :\ 8)
 
Re: Saftey First!

My friends come to me for advice and know they can ask me to be present and look after them for certain drug experiences but i'm also quite foward about it with randoms i meet out. For example if im talking to someone i've literally just met and i see they're grinding their teeth i will mention magnesium pre-loading even though it often just gets a nod and a slightly distrustful look, i think a lot people think i might be talking drug induced bullshit, when i end up hanging out or talking with them for a while on the night they will often bring it up again when they know they can trust me asking the details again and saying they will definitely give it a try next time.

The thing that pisses me off is when people come to me and ask for my advice and then don't take it. Like i think there was something asking about whether your friend has ever asked you if they should take a whole mdma pill in this thread before and i have been asked that exact same question and because it was the persons first time and the pills were some of the strongest ever seen in Aus (orange stars 03) i told him "definitely not, no way" he responded "well actually am just i gunna take a whole one". I argued with him but clearly he'd made up his mind before he asked so by asking he was just involving me in the situation and giving me the shits.

Yeah me too, does anyone else when trying to look after people when really messy go into like full army officer mode- 'taking control', giving everyone else orders and trying to run everything with the upmost efficiency? It's not like im trying to be a control freak or anything but its like the only way i can 'have it together' is to get totally into the mindset of someone who needs to protect the group/person, its a bit hard to explain though not sure if anyone will know what i mean.

I also find myself chatting to random people and mentioning shit too... like often at parties I will be always going around to friends and offering to get them more water. Also if I see people grinding I also give them advice on magnesium etc.

I just enforce the fact that everybody should be knowledgable about how drugs work and enable them to fully enjoy their trip while being as safe as possible. It just gives me a good feeling when people listen to me and take my advice and come back later thanking me...
 
im jus like you. fuck, last year i didnt know shit about about drugs. this year, the drug dealers come to me, askin "whats this?" "how do i take this" "how much is this" etc..its quite amusing.
 
Most definatly and people know they can always ask me any question about any drug, even the ones I don't use
 
By sucking up harmful drugs and otherwise diverting them away from the ignorant and into my sponge-like body, I think I qualify as a "harm reductor".

Yup, that's me too. I've taken the time to learn about even the drugs I don't use. I'm also the designated "Babysitter" of the group. When people are having a bad trip or it's their first time, they're given to me. It's not something I've ever minded.
 
I am all about drug safety but that doesn't mean I haven't taken risks or made stupid choices. I don't go around preaching or vote myself to be the babysitter, that just ruins my high. It may sound selfish but the only person I am interested in keeping alive and entertained in an altered state is me.

When sober, that's a different story. I am there if you need me to be. I don't agree with the drug combos some of my friends indulge in. I tell them the possible negative side effects and that is all I can do.

If you aren't sure about a drug, give it to me and I will take care of it ;)
 
i used to be

but then people try to tell me im an idiot for using scientific data, physical proof, historical facts, anecdotal evidence, my many many years of personal experience and knowledge of the human body, all combined with resulting correlations, to argue against their bullshit street myths and idiotic ideas of horrible drug combos and bad activities to do on drugs. so i stopped. if i see someone or hear someone doign something that would drastically endanger my life or the lives of my loved ones, yeah i would stop them, but other than that people can set their own water to boil if they dont want to listen.
 
^^
That's exactly how I am. With most people it's not even worth the energy.

If I hear someone bust out a myth like "I like the pure dancey pills not the ones with heroin" or "LSD builds up in your spine" I almost always say that it's not true... but if they are convinced they are right and think they can prove it, fuck it.

But hey if somebody wants to sniff a 2C-x or snort some pills which are more effective orally, and they seem convinced this is the way that "always works best for me", fuck it.

If I witness somebody about to do something dangerous, or take a risky combo I will tell them not to. If they insist (which has happened a few times) I just say don't say I didn't warn you.
