Cocaine Honestlly how bad is the lifestyle im living

Just the fact that you're asking us if your lifestyle is dangerous indicates that you're worried it is... Cut back on your drug use, you clearly already know that you should, and since you're only 16 rest assured you have plenty of years left to get high. Provided, that is, if you slow down now and take care of yourself.
Best of luck. Maybe you should seek some psychological help to deal with the issues in your life that are causing you to abuse drugs in the first place.
 
At 16?!? Yeah, ummmm...

Any drug use that consists of heroin and meth=bad sign.. especially at 16.

Sounds like you're on the fast track to totally ruining your life, kid.

IME kids who start this heavy that young are in for a long haul. You have your whole life ahead of you.

I've met dozens of kids in their early 20's who have been in and out of rehabs already, and started out just like you described. It's hard to shake when the hooks sink in during the teen years.

BTW; is that you in your avatar??
 
^^^

I was one of those kids. I started when I was 13, first rehab at 14. By the time I was 20, I had already been in 4 detoxes and 3 rehabs, plus attempts to get clean with methadone and suboxone.

Starting at that young age.. you're almost guaranteeing a life long problem.
 
That's some hard living for 16. I'd definitely recommend cutting out the coke, meth and H.

After many years of on/off hitting the yay, I'm still occasionally surprised by how addictive it is. And if you find yourself in a situation where money is no object, you may find that you're more hooked than you realized.

There's plenty of life ahead of you. Slow down :)
 
You are way, way too young, and you are very young no matter how 'mature' you think you are. I doubt you'll listen to 95% of the people on here, and will look only to confirm your lifestyle, but think about this... The most hardcore of junkies, what do you think their drug use was like when they were 16?

I know it's so hard to imagine this blowing up in your face if you haven't experienced it yet, but do you full realize how bad shit can get, there really is no end to this downward spiral...

As for SaJ, well... Soon he will be a junkie so you might not want to listen to him, at all, ever.

EDIT: I read this part of the OP
Idk I think i'm pretty good with my use just want opinions

If you think you're pretty good with your use when your doing H and Meth and Coke at 16 you are kidding yourself.

- Occasionally snort meth and heroin

Riffraff, I've read all of your posts since you've joined. You are a very uneducated drug user (consider your thread about cocaine and the heart. You were unaware stimulants damaged your cardiovascular system), and you take many risks by starting so young. Very few people who start so heavily at that age make anything of their lives. Most continue using well after it was just something to do; it becomes the only thing to do.

My guess is you'll be dead, in jail, or best bet is rehab before 20. You will struggle to get clean, and when you do, you'll realize you haven't made anything of yourself up until this point, while everyone who abstained that grew up around you are moderately content with their lives.

This is coming from a 25 year old who started at 13, and picked up heavier drugs at 15 or 16 (notice that I joined this forum in 2002, and I'm just about to turn 26.

Mark my words, you are not "good". You're destroying your future, one dose at a time.

My advice to you is to use only marijuana moderately, if you must even do that, but if you decide to continue abusing harder drugs, use them all moderately. H and speed used "moderately" does not mean once a week.

EXERCISE. Get obsessed with bodybuilding and eating right. You'll feel and look great, and you'll never regret those decisions. Pick up jiu jitsu. Do someting awesome with your life. You don't have as much time as you believe you do.

One thing I noticed about my drug addicted friends, is they all lost so much invaluable and IRREPLACEABLE cognitive function. Some were very intelligent, but I just don't see it anymore - not like I used to. I, myself, have become notably slower. When I was 17 I placed very highly on an IQ test and thrived in the pattern recognition portion. At 23 I felt so slowed down, and was beginning to get frustrated in school because how slowly i was absorbing the material, so I took a test in the learning disability department in my colleged and FAILED MISERABLY in the pattern recognition portion. They said I have a learning disability. I didn't have one before my heaviest drug abuse.

and trust me, i feel it everyday.

Wow shroomster,that's one nice post!Congratulations

Anyway look Riffraff run away until it's time.From your heavy drug use i understand that you are not good at school,you are not someone who plays on the PC a lot,you are NOT someone with normal friends,and generally life was bad at you?
Look,make a new life,seriously.I used to be one VERY good student,someone with dignity.Now i'm shit,i don't even care if i die,especially now that i have nothing to do in my life.I ain't gonna lie,i'm 18 years old,my future is obscure as fuq,drugs are a one way road,you can't go back.Whenever i do stuff(meditating,playing a game,etc)im doing it for a month or less.But i'm into drugs,starving to gather money to buy drugs,from June 2013.It's been 7 months,and they passed without i even realized,you know why?Cause of drugs.I keep saying to myself that i can kick them out wherever i want.But i can't throw my LSD away.I can't burn my weed.I can't blow my dope on the air.This is very bad shit.I'm doing crazy stuff for drugs,i feel VERY sorry for my mother.She loves me more than anything,but i keep worrying her.She gives me everything and i give her back SHIT.Nothing at all.

Drugs are bad,even in moderation.Once you tread this path,you can't go out easily.Especially you,that do all that nasty stuff.Play pc,go to the gym,make new friends or become a forever alone.Way better than this shit.I'm a very new drug user,i have to say that i'm addicted as hell,maybe not bad addicted but i need them.I'm not free.I'm a drug slave.I keep trying to stop this stuff,but they get me everytime.

Have fun
 
My god

Such unexplainable

Many feels be afoot


SAJ this is good that you realize this, but would be better if you tried to fix some stuff that can be easily fixed (like getting along with your parents easier) You realize what we tried to warn you! But it's not too late to turn a new leaf and try and get around this, there's plenty of people on here that will still try and help you if you are really serious about it. :)
 
Scarily similar to my own situation at your age. The obvious answer is that it's no good. My personal answer would be space out MDMA as much as possible, I used to try to keep it to every three weeks. Sometimes it was three times in a week but sometimes I managed to space them out. As for H and meth, steer fucking clear bro. You'll come to your own conclusions no matter what but other than alcohol I can tell you without a doubt that H amd amps have been the biggest probems in my life... Both socially and to my health.

Take care. And try to be confident enough in yourself that peer pressure doesn't become an issue. When I was your age I had a huge ego about doing loads of drugs and not being a pussy or whatever. Just be comfortable enough in yourself to be able to say "im pretty high right now, ill pass on a line for an hour or so but you guys go ahead." That seems like a huge weakness at your age, did for me at least, but it's really not a big deal. Don't get more fucked up than you need to just to prove yourself. That's where shit gets hairy.

Of course he is. Kids at that age ask that question for validation.. They want us to say, "It's no big deal, you'll be totally fine!". They want to find any way possible to justify it, because deep down they know it's incredibly bad, and hearing it's okay from somebody else gives you that justification.
 
16? I met when i was 24. I still think I may meet with drugs a little older.
Sometimes, when I use mdma, I kinda want more and use until it finishes.
Last time i used 3,5 pills approx 100mg per pill and I kinda see where i'm going.
So i give a break like 3 months. I'm still on it. How did you not hate yourself when doing drugs?
I really pity myself where I ended up like here..
I don't have excessive use, but I feel like this.
 
Listen, focus on your life and make something of yourself. I'm 28, and thats exactly what I did; went to school, uni, had mates and a boring regular life. Then for medical reasons I got gabapentin, and suddenly my life changed. When i took it recreationally, it became a out from my mundane life.

I joined this board to ask about benzos, because I couldnt abuse gabapentin everyday (tolerance issues). Since then, I have done coke mdma, a whole host of RCs, and next week I'm doing meth. I'd do H if I could. See how drugs can suck you in? I have a lot to lose; my job, my new partner, family. You have just started out in life, and havent even experienced it all. Step away from the drugs and focus on building a life.

Basically. Being in that age group, I find myself guilty of this all the time.
