ALCOHOL

That shit ruined every aspect of my life.
NO es mi droga, nunca más

Others however (Sertraline, Opioids) no. I never want to be without them. Me MUCHAS encanta :love:
 
yes Meth, I wish I could go back and threw the point I bought for the very first time, never to touch again.

100% agree and I think that's a great attitude to have. I didn't know about that saying "maktub" so thanks for that. I think that this feeling that "maybe things could have been different" is at the root of the human struggle to accept reality, but once you can accept that they could not have been, it becomes a lot easier to accept and move past a lot of other difficult things such as grief, which I guess is essentially another form of regret, in a way, as well as grudges, resentment towards others and just any other things that stem from not being able to properly accept reality.

It's not possible to talk about this really without touching on free will a little, whether or not we have it, what that even means, because the obvious implication of this is that free will is somewhat illusory too. But it's not necessary to discount free will entirely here - maybe there are other alternate hypothetical worlds which blink out of existence one by one as humans make choices (or branch off into parallel but inaccessible alternate universes, depending what flavour of reality cake you prefer) - but the fact remains that the fact that you are where you are today is because this is how reality is, now, and those other hypothetical yous where you decided different things are not you. Maybe this all goes without saying... as I type that it seems like a self-evident truth, but again it seems to be a difficult thing for some people to accept, I don't think I'm personally capable of explaining it any better though if it's not obvious already.

I will say though obviously knowing this rationally and fully accepting it emotionally are 2 different things, and it can be a challenge to achieve the latter. Regret is a natural human emotion, and we also all need to take responsibility for our decisions, and for our mistakes, and knowing that probably we could not have acted any differently anyway doesn't absolve us of responsibility for our actions. In some sense to operate in this reality effectively requires holding a somewhat contradictory dichotomy in our heads - that we are responsible for the choices we make - and that (probably) we can only ever really decide one way. For example, it's probably not helpful to teach children that their lives are likely already written - and it can be harmful psychologically even for adults, as it can be used as an excuse to keep on making bad decisions, and completely reject any responsibility for one's actions. I'm not entirely clear what the solution to this is, as a species I think we're all still figuring that out.

I will challenge you on the notion that regret is a natural human emotion.

Firsthand regret- Yes

Regret caused upon by someone else defintately isnt natural.

We share altruism like dolphins.

Regret should’nt be a natural emotion.

Love 100% is
 
trying to figure out what this was a response too... a single arching fact? Could that not be delivered for about anything? I am unclear to what you are responding to is my point i guess.
 
Wish I never picked up nicotine. Has me waking up at 3AM to buy more and chain smoking all day feeling my lungs suffer. I’ve easily gotten off of drugs from Xanax, LSD, to Kratom without any issue and never looking back. But nicotine feels like something I absolutely need or I’ll have psychotic symptoms. Anyone else?

Yeah. What I regret is not knowing how alcohol compared with other drugs.. Not making a more informed choice. Then maybe I would have destroyed my body less.
 
Personally I have not had problems with addiction before, nor have I spent money that I couldn't afford to spend.

But the one drug I regret taking is air duster, I said some things that I cant take back while on air duster. Although I was in a bad place at the time and the duster isn't to blame for my actions I dont believe I would have driven as big of a rift between me and my only friend group if I hadn't taken air duster.

Also its neuro toxic af.

Idk what you mean by walk on sunshine but if your referring to the experiences I had on duster I'd have to say they were predominantly negative.

So less walking on sunshine and more set adrift at see during a storm.

I also wish i never tried crack, because it was underwhelming

Kinda how I felt about IV meth after having used alot of crack prior (not right before).

Bruh that crack was garbage or you uad been doing amphetamines prior to the crack.

I'm not a stim person but I rank crack as the most intense rush of all drugs.

Havnt done it in a decade but crack deserves some credit.

When it was fishscale quality & based with ether
the euphoria was insurmountable

Mmmm yes good crack is definitely euphoric and sometimes it’s hard for me to compare between that or good quality meth but the best part about the meth (( if it’s good quality from 10-20 years ago )) is that it lasts longer than 5-10 minutes. If crack could last half the day then fuck yeah hands down I’d probably give it to crack but meth is overall great for productivity if you’re not dosing too high and trying to start a fuck sesh with a woman who’s brave to handle your big dick for 5 to 10 hours and to the ones that have with me.. I salute every one of you ladies! Thank you for the good times and great memories 🤘🏻😉
 
I only regret being on Acid both times I happened to run into the girl from my hometown who I had a crush on for years. I don't regret smoking weed, it helped my ADHD and anger issues and my eyesight. I don't regret taking opiates because I waited for years while in constant pain before 'giving in' when a doc prescribed them and then,of course,went to the street for H when the pill crackdown hit. But I've been opiate free for 3 years now even though I have an even more severe back injury, due to supply mostly because,honestly, I am not functioning well enough to go back to my trade with this constant pain.

Doing meth at 71. Fuckin respect to you sir!!

At my age there's a lot of things I can no longer do. Smoking meth is something I enjoy, so I do that almost daily. Makes life more interesting, plus, for me, it makes it easier to stay away from heroin. (Also, I no longer slam anything).

Good question!

Definitely wish I had never tried Methamphetamines, took me 8 years to quit and I caused my family all sorts of grief.

I would definitely quit everything if I had the choice to be free from addiction. Right now I mostly drink and smoke weed when I have it.

But I mostly drink and im trying to quit because its another destructive force in my life. I end up doing stupid shit and getting in trouble or hurting someone OR end up in the drunk tank.
 
I 100% regret ever touching opioids, on a daily basis. They have unquestionably made my life worse, and caused me untold suffering, and continue to. I was even free of them for 5 years and then in a moment of extreme grief I slipped and I was right back where I left off. I would give a whole lot to be able to go back and listen to people who told me I shouldn't touch opiates.

The only drug class I do not regret at all is psychedelics. They have unquestionably improved my life and point of view.
