Hey everybody! I'm Slade, and I just wanted to introduce myself. I used to be a member of this site many years ago (around 2002, I believe) but as I haven't logged into that account in about ten years I suppose it was deactivated, so I opened a new one, and I'm glad to be back! So hello, all! I love you! I love you all like lovers!

Welcome Back to the light
How has your taste in chemicals changed in the last 10 years??I am no longer into cocaine and methamphetamine. I was never that into meth, but I saw it ruin a few friends' lives, so I never let myself get that deep. I did a lot of coke back in college, but I used more heavily than I should, and I had to kick that habit once I graduated from college and became a responsible member of society, haha. Now mostly I stick to psychedelics, particularly mushrooms. I still enjoy MDMA occasionally when I can find decent stuff, but in the last ten years I've noticed the quality of ecstasy drastically decline, so I rarely indulge in that anymore (both because as I have gotten older and more mature, I value moderation more highly, and also the good stuff is simply hard to come by, particularly since I'm mostly out of that scene and don't have any really reliable connections, and I don't want it badly enough to really look for reliable connections).
I enjoy the occasional RC, but again those are harder to come by after the whole Operation Web Tryp fiasco back in 2003, or whenever that was. I experimented with mephedrone some last year, but found that by the time it really started to feel good, it promptly started to wear off and just wasn't satisfying (and I wanted to avoid ever redosing due to reports of compulsive use).
A lot of things have changed in my life in the last ten years, but I still like to revisit some "old friends" every now and then, haha, so I thought I'd rejoin this community since it gave me so much guidance so many years ago. Cheers!

Yes mephedrone can be a tricky one Some alarming facts about it can be found in our Mephedrone Mega Threads....we have about ten last time I checked. Have you taken methylone before?

Yes it is a short experience but if you time the two doses just right you can have two fantastic peaks that can be rewarding and abuse-proof at the same time. Mephedrone can drag on for 24 hours or more which is bad for someone like me!Yeah, I might try methylone. Mephedrone is okay, but I'm not going to do it again. The last time I did, even after one 300mg oral dose, I noticed some purple discoloration in my knees that people have talked about, which scared me. I'm sure some people are more prone to that effect than others, and apparently I am sensitive to it. If just 300mg orally did that to me, I imagine a 24 hour binge could seriously damage my circulatory system, and I'm not about to have my foot amputated because of some unresearched substance that I am only moderately fond of (even if I freaking loved it, it still wouldn't be worth it, haha).

^^I have never gotten that symptom from either methylone or mephedrone, but I can tell you that methylone feels "safer" on many levels. I have also had a short love affair with 6-APB a few months back and it was pretty great overall.And yeah, like you indicated, mephedrone just feels a little dangerous to me, and I've always thought so even before I had the experience with my knees turning purple. As far as drugs go, I've very rarely been afraid of anything, but I'm a little scared of mephedrone and certainly won't be doing it again.
