Are you a successful drug user?

I use amphetamines to practice my music. I actually got a lot better.My grades went up, i exercised more, and overall it made my life a lot better.
 
in progress, i'm starting a job formation in september, and have hugely improved mys social life since the last couple of years, so i'm heading in the right direction, i'm far from a successfull drug user atm... but i'm making efforts ton make it hppen, ib have come to terms that i am pretty much doomed to addiction, so the best i can do is be a functional addict
 
I'm relatively successful by my own standards. I'm still pretty young, but I graduated with pretty amazing marks from college, I really love my job and the pay is okay. My boyfriend just graduated very top of his class and he has a job making a lot of money and he loves his job too. We live in a pretty rich area. He uses a lot more than I do, but we are both pretty successful druggies :p. I think it's so funny that people would consider me a druggy because you'd never guess it if you saw me just on the street or whatever (well unless it's after a night of clubbing ... even then ... I look OK). :p

That being said, I've never used drugs at work. Just does not seem like the right place to do it, at least for me.
 
I'm a pretty successful student, definitely more intelligent than the majority of the kids in my high school... which isn't saying much. I'm very careful about how I go about doing drugs, because I don't believe that people should do drugs if they aren't informed or with someone informed about the drugs they are using. Education about proper drug use will minimize improper drug abuse :D
 
I would say no. I have really fucked up this past 2 years. I know I can handle my shit, and could be successful, but dont keep that discipline. Someone always pisses me off and I start making destructive decisions. Which is a character issue I reckon

lol im the exact same way. junior year of high school almost every day i was on something, although i rotated them to avoid any dependence. school was already easy for me normally, but with amphetamine i can sleep through all my classes in a day, go home, pop a pill, and learn everything i would have at school in an hour. i took all of my finals that year while i was high as fuck on both amp and weed, and i aced every final with a 95% or higher lol. i can do advanced math (calculus, college level physics, etc) while stoned, and do it correctly. in computer programming, i made an entire and fairly fun flash game from scratch (including models, sound effects, etc) in C# in 4 hours while i was stoned. honestly being stoned makes computer programming easier for me.... probably because normally im not that creative. in addition to all this, ive never really been caught doing anything. ive come close a few times while smoking weed, but i played it off as a cigar. i also got caught drinking once, but that was the first time so not really any consequences and at the time i had no idea what i was doing. ive managed to use a wide range of drugs quite frequently for about a year without ever being caught, becoming addicted (tested by checking for cravings and periodically taking a week off of everything), or allowing it to affect my personal life beyond minor changes. so i would consider myself to be a successful druggie... i just do em a lot cuz i enjoy them and because i can and i honestly cant think of a reason not too.
 
What you're trying to achieve doesn't have anything to do with how other people handled their drug use. You should trust your own capabilities rather than basing your views on the lives of other people.
 
I was successful until opiates.

This is why I would warn younger users to no get too into themselves being successful just yet. As others have stated its easy to say "yeah I'm getting grade grades at (college or high school) and have a job" I too was like that.

It wasn't until I got out of school met a girl and got a life that things got bad. Even then it took 2 years to get bad.

There was a time where I paid bills did every well in school and had a good job. There was a time where my relations were great and my family life was awesome. Then came heroin and before I realized it myself I went from weekend user, functional addict, to addict. Now I don't pay shit other then dealers even with a full time job.

I just want my life to be a warning to others. It's not terrible but if you told me 3 years ago this would be me I'd say "no look at how I conduct myself and my life" but now that's a distant past.
 
I smoke too much weed and go to college but am slowly falling behind at the moment

I think i could force myself to do the work but its a bigger effort when your in a daze

the key is having a joint on the weekend at the most if you find weed unmotivating like i do

thats really hard to do in my home environment at the moment though
 
I'm still alive and not homeless, so I'd have to figure yes on the subject.

What exactly is 'successful,' anyway? I know this isn't P&S but humour me.
 
success is when you are using/have used your talents to a decent extent and are feeling fulfilled as a result

thats my best shot
 
I am still alive and I'm not in jail so I guess I am some what successful. On the other hand I cannot turn water into wine so from that perspective I am a complete failure :(

Hah ^ When the chips are down-possibilities are endless. I consider myself a successful user as I have always held a job down, keep a nice home and most importantly do not inflict anything of a negative nature onto anybody as a result of my drug use. HOWEVER.... there have been times when I could have climbed the ladder in my chosen career, though opted not to do so because the transition would have not worked (because of my addiction) When I reflect on this I feel extremely negative and yes, to some extent that I have failed-at least to be better than now- Whatever.. grey areas.8)
