Habits

[Dr.groveller]

I was just curious about who on here actually has a habit (benzos, H, coke, meth). I mean an honest to goodness habit. Once a week isn't a habit.
My wife and I have been doing H daily since about last October. Obviously, as such things go, less in the beginning (a bag here or there, but more on the weekends) to the current 3+ bag/each a day that we're at (more on the weekends)...
We're still working our jobs- no interference there- though I *do* have to maintain during the day- easy since I work at home... Mortgage isnt' in trouble but it definitely is a drain on the finances. The worst is when you really start buying in bulk just to save money- it's so tough moderating with that big fat stack in front of you. The occasional coke habit on top of it all doesn't help either. Used to be an 8 here or there- now it's a half ounce no problem...
But, it's certainly not at the point where we're concerned enough to quit. We just schedule more regular stops at the dealer.
Sure, it'd be nice to get the new dishwasher this week rather then next but...
Who else uses daily and doesn't seem to mind too much?

i had an honest to goodness herion habit back a while ago.
right now im taking benzos every night
i go in and out of opiate/opioid/herion sprints that last at least a few weeks
its not that big of a deal
every so often i think i should be done with it
but even as i carried the h addiction i did well in school and didnt let if effect me in aweful ways
yes the finances for these and other drugs doesnt help much in the savings department
but over all its more than tolerable

I have had a large benzo habit for 3 years (10-20mg Valium or 1-2mg Xanax every day). Also a kind bud habit (1/8 a week) for about 5 years. I used to have a 2-3gram Meth habit but it has tapered off in the last year. I've hadno problems except for a few times my benzo sources have dryed out. No money problems. I will graduate college in December with a double major (psychology and communication) and have had the habits throughout. It's only a problem if you have a weak mind and let it become one.
