Candy: Thanx man. What i meant was just outlining it. I didnt mean it like DONT DO IT. Like it is my responsibility to make up other peoples minds. Everyone has a right to their own decision! (I have re-worded my topic, due to the fact that people will read it and say just that, which is not what Iam intending). Thx Guys!

I don't think anyone has the right to say 'don't do (insert drug name)'. So I'm not going to dignify this thread with an appropriate response.
Just don't be surprised if you get flamed like a BBQ...

And to add, I used to have a meth problem. Smoked it regularly and knew I'd gone to far for too long. However, I managed to stop abusing meth.
So yay for me. It is possible to get off it.

Just remember, it CAN be used and kept under control. It's all up to the user and what they want from it.
 
^^ Exactly what he said...I am fighting of the urge to pull apart your post and spank my 20 inch dick all over it....but I wont.

You, Special TBK, are what is known as "a newbie"...you dont know anything about "the scene" here at bluelight....maybe you don't "belong here" because you look like a "KNOW-IT-ALL"....

and if you didn't catch my references, here is my validation....http://www.bluelight.ru/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=180931&r=26 you can go straight to page 2 to see the info on this one.

Not everyone has the same ideas as you Special, so instead of coming here and PREACHING you might want to sit back and learn a bit first.

You could have refrased your post by turning it into a question that other people could answer like "Do you think that meth is really that bad?? Here are some shocking results that I found here look at these links?"

You know stuff like that, ENGAGE people, dont make them think that you know everything and are here to teach them everything that you know, and that they should be damn lucky that you did.

Cheers.
 
okay maybe I havent experienced a bad drug habit yet...

Im not trying to sound like a Know it all, If iam iam sorry, but I have just seen so much negative about it... I shall keep it to myself!

SpecTBK=D
 
^^^^^^^^ No you shouldnt keep it to yourself........... This board is all about harm minimisation.

I guess what John is saying is excellent advice.........take a chill pill for a while and re read what he wrote........

Hang arround and learn about stuff.......... then you can learn some more.

Your heart is in the right place and thats important.
 
Dude, I updated your topic so the change of heading shows on the forum page (only a mod's majik can do that ;) )

I actually agree with you for the record. I got myself in dangerous territory a year or so ago when I had copious amounts available *cough d-word* in the house and it almost became catastrophic for my health, financial and employment situation and even relationships.

But on the other hand I think people need to find out, and choose, for themselves.

And I still have lines occasionally, just learned to moderate more ;)

Good on you for posting this topic - everyone give him a bit of abreak hey? No-one's personally attacking you all.
 
I'm very scared of meth to be honest, and despite a very large interest in it a while back, having read up and researched it i don't think i should even try it once. I could get it very easily (not cheap mind you) and I have one of the most addictive personalities i know. Shame :(

Peace
 
There is not too many drugs that scare me, but meth is one of them. I am VERY cautious not to have too much and not to use it on a regular basis.

It's good that you're doing your research and asking what others think. Just be very careful.
 
Thanks Strawberry_lovemuffin, Iam glad that you were lucky enough to get away from it.

I always knew that it was an epidemic, but all of my friends and that, that I saw hooked were in no relation as the physical appearance of hard users, I always knew it was bad, but didn't realise it was as bad as it is. (the widespread addiction, not addiction)

Also just a question, of the people who here have been hooked or still are, how long were you/have you, been using meth? what sort of physical (fitness and appearance) things have happened to you! I don't mean to offend anyone, but maybe if people realise how bad it can be they will see that maybe they should be more cautious with their use/trying.

I spose the reason for Crystal Meth being such a wide spread problem IMO is the fact that it is alot more socially acceptable than alot of other *hard drugs*.

SpecTBK=D
 
I smoked/snorted crystal regularly for about 8-10months. By the end of that I had lost a lot of weight (which was a cause for using in the first place *BAD IDEA* and I was totally strung out, short tempered and totally cracked out due to a constent sleep deprivation.
I believe the lack of sleep is what really fucks with you in the long run, after physical addiction.

It got to the point where I was sitting in my lectures and seriously considering the fact my best mate was an undercover cop sent in to watch for 'drugies' and the if I could get him drugs he'd arrest me... It got ugly real quick.
Also, walking around (especially at uni), EVERYONE was staring at me... well, they weren't, I just thought they were...

I went cold turkey, cutting myself off it and as much as I wanted just a 'little bit' I totally refused (was surprised at my strength of will). For a while it was all I could think about, but then I just kind of forgot about it and kept myself busy doing other stuff.

I even gave up my ticket to a festivel I was dying to go to all year cause I had to get away from it all.

I'm just glad it didn't get to the point where I was passed the point of no return with all the other horrible physical symptoms etc.

*EDIT*
Also, as everyone says, it just kind of sneaks up on you. At the start it was all recreational. Just a little here and there. Then I started taking mini bumps before lectures and what not. For a little while I though "I should really watch my usage", but at that point I was in a real 'low' and decided it was nothing. Then one day it was all I could think about and it spawned just like that.

When I started thinking "Eh, its Tuesday night but I'll have some lines anyway" I knew I was in trouble. It was always meant to be just the "weekend" drug, but somehow it creeps into your mind, and justifies it's usage during the week.

If you just have a point at 7pm, you'll be able to sleep and go to work tomorrow okay.
It's Thursday night; why not!
You didn't have that much last weekend.
It's free.... so what the hell.


Suddenly you find yourself, in the middle of the week on a work night, wired and staring at the computer at 1am, 2am in the morning. Trying to act normal and not jitter around while watching TV with your partner who doesn't know (but whom is mighty suspicious when you refuse dinner because you're 'not hungry').

It ends up doing your thinking for you. Every spare cent I had went on it. My gums bled. My stomach hurt all the time.

I rarely missed a day of work though, and kept up pretenses. I was just lucky that - through no decision of my own - the stuff became suddenly harder to get, my contacts disappeared, and my usage waned of it's own natural accord. It was the hugest relief actually, because I wouldn't have *chosen* that at the time :\ Scary.
 
Meth.

The dragon of deep-seated anger and resentment.

Be wary; be on guard. Once it has you in its clutches, you belong to it, and servicing this master can take you to the end of the world and back.
 
Edit: ^^^i don't agree with hyperbole like this. Saying a drug is your master is resigning yourself to fate, and is characteristic of the weakness that underlies addiction.

The truest thing that's been said in this thread is that it "sneaks up on you". That it does! It is incredibly easy to go from using on the weekend to using more regularly, as SLM pointed out. More importantly, it's incredibly easy to start using *every* weekend, rather than the once-a-month which offers the best MDMA returns for most people.

It's a hard one to shake. My way out was to set myself a goal that I thought was just slightly beyond my capabilities (in this case, academic, but it could be anything) and strive towards that. Whenever I started craving, I did some more study instead. When I eventually achieved my goal, I felt so pleased with myself I realised I didn't need the drugs to feel happy any more. It was a good feeling.
 
personally... i am now scared of meth, after abusing it for a while back last year and being on the verge of failing school, ruining my friendships coz i turned into a sour little bitch, and basically fucking up myself big time, i now stay well away from the shit, coz i know that once i get that pipe burning all i want is one more burn, just one more wont hurt i used to think. but it does. ice is fucking evil, and it is the worst drug to ever fuck with my head. i never realised how strong of a drug it is until i didnt want to eat for days on end, turned really nasty on ppl i loved and just craved and always thought how can i get one more burn? just one... it was never enough for me when i used to smoke it, and i know its too powerful for me just to do in moderation because the after effects just fuck me rite up, therefore i refuse to touch the shit now.. just for my own health... as much as i fuckn love ice, its best to stay well away..
 
I find it highly amusing the meth/amphetamine bashing that is occurring in this thread. I agree it is a drug with some serious health issues if used regularly or semi regularly. However what many of the anti-meth posts here seem to have missed is that amphetamines are prescribed to millions around the globe. Clearly this suggests its not the drug but the amounts and frequency of use that cause many of the detrimental effects. Also worth considering is that many supposed "E" pills contain meth/amphetamine in amounts varying from small to considerably large.

Sadly I believe that those who are scared of a drug or group of drugs may actually be scared by the fact they don't have enough control over themselves to stop using it if they wanted to.
Sometimes I think that using drugs can be a really an effective journey of self-discovery, unfortunately some are scared by what they find.......

edit: regarding the links provided, have people seen photos of long term alcoholics? Heavy Ab/use of many substances can result in awfull consequences...... :(
 
What needs to be remembered when talking of meth and amphetamine in the same sentence, is that meth is much more neurotoxic than amphetamine for the same (moderate) dose regime.

I guess it comes down to the sort of person you are as to whether or not it will get a strangle hold on your decision making.

The clarity of mind, the returned memory and other little things like the way you feel after a good nights rest with plenty of REM time are just too essential to be without. These are things - day to day wise - that affect and contribute to your personality.

somehow, i believe thats heroin use.... or so a mate just told me...

It may well be meth use.

I do know alot of "crack" heads, not being that they use crack, just smoke meth. Girls i know tell me they are "married to the crackie"... i smoke meth from time to time, and i enjoy it sometimes. that poem is true, but i've seen things like that come from use of other drugs.

Stay well clear of meth addiction, it's dangerous
 
Weight gain on heroin is the biggest bs i ever heared. If u ask any ex heroin user if they gained weight they will tell you its a lie. Maybe you gain weight trying for the first few times but then after once your addicted, you become a boney skinny guy, and that goes for everyone.
