Ever wish you never tried it

i wish i'd never taken a pain pill
yeah, word to that......but still the memories of chomping down vicodin then hittin the water fountain in high school is classic, the begining of a terrible thing. opiates and mdma show you how great you can feel, after experiencing that, the rest of life can seem boring. but i mean drugs are just a terrible cycle, if you break that cycle you'll feel better w/o puttin all your money up your nose. but fuck, it's more fun to ride the cycle than to quit
 
Willpower, i can't do it, i can do it.

I wish I had never done ex. I wouldn't know how wonderful it is and it would be easier to say no to it when it's rears it's ugly head! Will power! :( Easier said than done, but I'm doing well...2 years going strong!

I so understand, I started on the pills before all my friends, they got curious and started months after me. Now I'm realising that there is a point where you have gone to far, and you need more and more, and you take pills more and more. Taking pills and speed has become my life. A while ago, I tried to stop, after 5 weeks, was suffering really bad depression, now don't know whether this is from withdrawal of lifestyle or drugs, but feeling really alone... so went back on it, slowed down, but was feeling heaps better, then it got to much pretty quickly again.

My friends don't listen to me when I say that if they keep going so hard, they'll hit a brick wall. My memory is scattered, I have very bad depressed times and drugs are affecting my life, when I never thought they would. They control me more then I control them.

My friends keep offering, I know how good the highs can be, so I accept.

I haven't taken anything for four weeks... and it's really hard...

My friends who take drugs aren't supportive, and my friends who don't - just don't understand...

My goal is to say, stay of them till the new year... then it will be easier...

It's just so hard the lows...

Does anyone have any advice?
 
When I was trying to quit pot, I picked up a new hobby (drums) which kept me busy a lot and my mind off of it. I then thought about how fun having control over my life can be, and how much fun I can have off drugs and that it's not worth it to continue use. I KNOW harder drugs (ie speed) are MUCH MUCH HARDER to quit, but finding a person who cares about you will help a lot, as will picking up and spending time on a new hobby rather than squandering precious time finding a hook up and getting high. Believe me, it hurts at first, but it will DEFINITELY be worth it in the end! Also paranoia goes away by a lot, I'm not scared about my parents or cops finding anything, and its a great feeling. By the way, having support from peers helps A LOT. I wouldn't have been able to quit if it wasn't for my friends, they helped out so much and made me realize what I was doing to myself. Good luck luv_bikkies!

and to think i never even knew how you could feel on hydros until i was 29, i'm 33 now and when i think back to the days when i was in a good mood naturally, it seems so frikkin weird. that it was possible at all without getting high
 
im starting / trying to say im already over a crack habit. i hope guys...your right, its all in the support, if you have no support, and no life, you cant even stand off your feet...
 
Ever wish you never tried it
Yes and No.

If I could get back my old self(noneccentric), lose thees paranoid thoughts and depressed outlook, then No. Haven't used H,coke,meth or any other "hard" drug, but even less threatening drugs can fuck you up mentally.
 
I wish i had never taken so much X in such a short time period (10 months) on which many occasions were not even worth it.

Luckily i realized that once the magic is gone it's gone forever before i uselessly messed with my brain some more, and so i gave up that stuff forever a long time ago.

But i'm sorry because i didn't make the best of my rolling times.

I don't think i've regretted doing any drug for the FIRST time or even the second or third or.....well, you see where this is going. However, i wish I had never ABUSED alcohol. It went from being a fun way to spend the weekends in high school, on to a pretty much everyday thing by college. After college, instead of growing up and having a "normal" relationship with alcohol, I began to abuse it MORE. i worked in a high stress job, and it was just common for a group of coworkers to hit the bar after work. Of course, this wasn't the common stopping after work, having a beer or two, and going home. it was a "get as fucked up as you can to forget about your day" type of thing. I finally went to out patient treatment for a period of about 4-5 months, and I learned a great deal about myself and my habits. Of course, it didn't really change too much. I still drank, just not as often. however, i would make up for lost time and drink even more when I would drink. I've come to realize alcohol will only destroy me, and being recently married, I have more to be concerned about than the effects it has on MY life. Time for me to quit being greedy and actually care what someone else feels. I'm on week 2 without touching the stuff, and can only hope my willpower holds out. I'm feeling good about this, but not overconfident. I just think i realized what I was doing all this time, and it needs to end.
 
i wish i had never actually found the meth that i sought out for years ago. and even more i wish i had never started takeing xanax daily while i was so in to the meth. its bad being addicted to just one of em, but both of them at the same time is a hell i would only wish upon a couple of people, especially when you run out of both and have to spend a couple days just sort of watching yourself go through the daily routine from across the room.
 
wish I never touched pot.

i have no problem with any other drugs because of my '3' rule. only try thing no more than 3 times...although only drugs i've ever done and only 3 times are DXM, LSD, shrooms.

tried ectasy once and this drug is wack.
 
thankfully!!!!

i can say that there is not a drug that i have tried that i have regretted....for that i am thankful!!!!

also now i am sober for over 1 year......for which i am even more thankful

i thank you now for any flames this post may bring!!!!=D =D
 
Meth is the only drug I've done that I wish I hadn't. I never even wanted to do it to begin with, everything inside me screamed that it was a bad idea. Then after trying it, realizing it wasn't so bad after all, I was hooked. I got off it after only a few months of hardcore use due to lack of connections and moving, but a few years later it came back around. I knew I should stay away but I did it anyway. After 2 years of everyday use, loosing the best job I've ever had, loosing a girlfriend, alienating my close friends, and loosing my self respect I finally quit. It's been about a year and a half since I've done it and I'm just now becoming the person I once was before I let meth take over my life. Yeah, I can definatley say I wish I would've never done it.
 
I used to wish that I had never taken meth, that I had never smoked pot, and that I had never tried many other things which I have tried. But now, I am thankful that I have, because it has brought me to where I am today and I like my life. Without the experiences I have had, I can´t say for sure that I would be right where I am today. Sure, fighting with meth for a couple years was hell ,but it has given me a new outlook on life, a new appreciation for what drugs can do to someone (frist and second hand experience), an appreciation for what I have and a desire never to gamblee with it again, and a understanding on MANY things about life and drug use in general.

So, no, I don´t regret it and I hope that the people who write in this thread can somehow fight their demons and begin to see it from a different perspective. It seems rough as guts when you are fighting any sort of negative pattern in life, but it is how you handle yourself in the situation that builds character and can really have a positive effect on the rest of one´s life.
 
^ most people mean methamphetamine when they say meth, I've only heard of meth being called methadone in australia.
 
Hmm. Right now I wish I had never done cocaine. I am struggling with quiting now. It is going ok, but of course is more slow than I had anticipated. And the fact that I'm going to have to quit drinking for a while to get rid of the coke friends is slowly hitting me.

If I can get through this I suppose I won't regret trying it because of all of the life experience blah blah blah, however, I certainly could have done without all of that shit.
 
yea sometimes i sit back and wonder what it would be like if i never started experimenting with drugs. i dont do much now i just smoke pot very occasionally and drink whenever its around. in the past ~4 years ive been a Fucking pothead, notice the big f, became a psychedelic-naut(?) -basically i got really into exploration of the conciousness, mainly with shrooms, tried lsd once on my 17 birthday (im now 18.. in 3 weeks.), had some fun with dxm (cough syrup) numerous times, had a few painkillers n shit, tried cocaine a couple times, fucked with morning glory a few times, fuckin tried crack once (no mas. fuck that shit.), rolled a couple times

..times man, good times.

but anyways, i went from one pure mutha fucker to.. whatever you wanna call it i know i wasnt a junkie, just liked to smoke pot alot basically, but for sure something has been done to my brain. i know its all me no one to point any fingers but fuck dude, im crazy sometimes. fuckuing literally. but back to the point i do sit back and wonder if id never blazed that first bowl. i love music and writing music, i love drawing shit, i love skateboarding, i love snowboarding, i love people, i love my girl, i fuckin love life.. but sometimes i wonder how much more beneficial or whatnot all these things i love would be, how much more creative and flowy i guess you could say this shit would come to me. my thought process is fucking shit at the moment, i too am in that "what the fuck should i say?" PHASE. i too am i confused mutha fucker at times. my biggest problem is listening to my own advice, even after giving it to others. i guess that pretty much sais whatever i was trying to say.
