Has anyone else heard of this term, "Chasing the Dragon"? I first heard it when I was talking to my friend about whether or not I should try taking heroine. He told me that his first time taking heroine was his "Dragon", and since then, every time he takes it, he is trying to attain that unbelievable high he reached the first time.
This mythical dragon is not the same for everyone. I think the best way to describe it is the way you felt the first time you really really got high. I had smoked pot for a while and rolled plenty of times before I met my dragon. That was the first time I took coke. Not the first line, nor the second. But there came this feeling, this level of highness, about four or five lines in, where my body became complete energy and I felt like I was completely invincible. Every time I've done coke since then, I've tried to feel that way, but have always come up short. And each time, I come up shorter and shorter. That is chasing the dragon.
Can anyone else relate to this, or at least heard the terminolgy? What is your dragon?
