Hey everyone, how's it going. My name is Matt and I'm 17 years old from California. I found bluelight through a friend because I'm new to the world of drugs and wanted to inform myself before I got into using so I could be safe.
I have only done MDA once, weed once, and some alcohol. I've been hanging around the ED irc chat a bit getting to know some people and just informing myself a bit more there before posting but I've been persuaded to post so here I am. :\ :)

Just a little more information about myself.
I've been a drummer for 4 years and currently own two aquariums with CA and Lake Malawi cichlids although I would love to take over my dads SW tank one day too. Have lived in Murrieta my whole life and love to see punk shows live, I'm a huge political music fan and am trying to read some Marxist based books.

Well this is my introduction and I'll be seeing you all around. :D
 
YAY MATT!!!

I meet Matt last night in the IRC chat last night and knew immediately he was good people!I am going to help him get a feel for the site in CD Soc tonight so everybody stop by and help show him how we do....open arms.PLUR.
Much Peace and Love............................skillz<3
 
Hey Skillz and pfirefly.
Thanks for the welcome, appreciate it much.
 
I need to post an apology to Matt58. I made a commitment to try and help Matt58 integrate his wonderful personality,very big heart and genuine desire to find out the facts about drugs as he leaves behind his days of blissful youth and behind his journey into adulthood as well as his experimentation with drugs.I am so happy to see young people determined to find the fact out about various substances to make a well informed decision and be prepared for that experience through 1st hand accounts.
I had been ill for about a month 1st with a partially torn rotator cuff and a nasty sinus infection that I am finally feeling leave my body as I finish the antibiotics.Being a long weekend and the bliss of feeling better-FINALLY-I had a great 3 day weekend,partying and hanging with my girlfriend. I forget,however,that as young as my spirit feels,I will be turning 34 next weekend and as time takes it toll on the human body naturally,i feel even more so the added effect of my years of using-especially in a time where there was no community to welcome me and inform me of facts and the message of harm reduction that remains one of the highest standards that Bluelight is proud to hold.There is no excuse bc I made a commitment to meet him and at least introduce him to a social that will give him a feel for bluelight as a fun and social place-just as rewarding as he finds IRC,which I feel has some great new members who enjoy IRC so much they may feel that forums posts are unfamiliar,possibly scary. I felt that way when I first joined and I feel a connection with those ho share the newbie nerves. I went to take a nap,because my weekend did not include much sleep.I slept through all 3 alarms-my body's way of reminding me that I can no longer party like I did in my 20s.I would hate to send the message that when an active bluelight member makes a promise,it's a gamble whether they show or not.Bluelight saved my life when I found it and it was because of the dedicated members,the amazing and well deserving mods who help direct me as well as keeping int touch to see hoe things were going.Those are the standards that I hope to convey here on bluelight.This evening I did not.
Matt58,you are a wonderful young man.I am deeply sorry and Intend to make it up to you.
So lets call this a do over-and I mean that will all my heart,I will remember to continue you take care of myself along so that I can be healthy in my use and come through like so many of you did to me.Look for Matt58 and I in some forums in the near future and let's all give him the warm,sincere welcome that we received as new members of this community.

Much Peace and Love to you all....especially you Matt58.I a, glad you are here.you are exactly where you need to me.

as always...............

Skillz, it's alright. I knew you were going to be on later, it's alright if you were late we all have things to do irl that are more important just as long you're safe.
 
You got a link to a bigger pic of your avatar? :)

Welcome to Bluelight mate.
 
Welcome to one of the best communities in the entire world. The amount of knowledge contained within the minds of the membership here rivals some of the greatest libraries or universities in the world and a creative retelling of our shared collective experiences could easily combine to create thousands of brilliant masterpieces (books, movies, etc.). Don't take it for granted, and please, for the love of god, don't ever get into intravenous drug use. It has destroyed myself and so many other people here. I have finally got myself back after 2 years without it. I know if I had someone telling me this at age 17 I'd probably be asking why or ignoring it but I hope that you don't, because your wants/desires/reasons for using drugs in the first place, and more importantly, the wants/desires/reasons for using drugs of your friends (who can greatly influence your drug use, peer pressure exists as a true concept to a certain extent) will change. You're sure to have a lot of crazy experiences, meet a lot of awesome (and horrible) people and definitely at the very least learn a lot of different things here. Utilize that knowledge to your advantage. Subforums like "The Dark Side" and their moderators are personally responsible for saving dozens, if not hundreds of people from the deepest depths of their despair and depression - and convincing them that ending their own lives would not be the right choice to make. I'd like to just make special notice of the moderators there and point out that they do this out of their own free will, it is not a paid job, they do it simply because they love to help others. Very few places on the internet (or anywhere) like bluelight exist anymore. Make sure to brush up on the rules and I'm sure you'll fit in quite nicely - you already seem to have a mini fan club owing to your time spent in the chat room. Enjoy!

Thanks for the welcome, appreciate it. As for everyone minds and such, I know everyone here is smart and has a ton of knowledge. Just after talking to some of these BLers for a short amount of time I know they are extremely knowledgeable and know tons of information on all of this stuff.

But as for the needles I know I'm 17 and am extremely young to get introduced to them and I know I'm trying to rationalize use now by saying this but ketamine has been something that has always looked like it would be a fun experience. And even it may seem like I'm ignoring peoples advice, I'm really not. It will stick in my head and if the chance is to come up and I'm in my right state of mind and realize how bad they really are, I won't do it. I've been talking to skillz a bit in the irc for two days now and what shes said really has stuck. I've even been told by a few other members that just once you IV you can't go back to doing it any other way because the rush is so good so stuff has been sticking, it's just up to me to enforce it on myself now, which I will for as long as I can.

Also as for the TDS sub-forum I've been there once and I have been through a little bit of shit in my life, not much so I don't feel like I'd be experienced enough to give anyone advice who is hurting but I will go there sometime just read some of the positive threads and posts and just see how needles and effected some others.
 
I'm glad you're here.
This is definitely the place to come for knowledge.
Shows you're smart that you're seeking it at your age.
