How open are you about your drug use? Who knows you use drugs?

[TheUltimateFixx]

Ok, if you are talking about the morphine
From military surplus that William S Burroughs first got, he was abusing morphine. And latter heroin, then he became a junkie. Morphine sucks.

I'm talking about the historical use of the term 'junkie' , which was FIRST coined for morphine abusers. So by Burrough's own account, he was one when he shot morphine, and was one when he did heroin.

And even to this day, there's a handful of users who prefer morphine to heroin so long as they can get the pharma grade stuff. I personally don't understand that, but I've noticed there's very individual differences in how people respond to / metabolise different types of opiates. Some will swear blind oxycodone is the shits, others say it's garbage and does nothing for them, etc etc

clever, smart open if that exist, like I must feel the room first

but my parents, ex-wife, friends are aware and not scared as I don't change my personality like Mccavoy in Split, and they know there won't be any troubles from it

Again I live in a suburbs and even thou I don't use more than once a month only psychedelics amd dissos, stims (prescribed), no opioids people talk arround like I'm using it's like a curse but I understand that they need to have material for gossip and to comfort themselves using much more, cause i was and still am considered good smart guy( I don't think I'm good thou) ;-)

I agree, the AA and NA people annoy me. Been to an AA once or twice, each time, I never wanted to drink more in my life. Nothing like listening to a woman( attractive) ball her head off because of months of sobriety, she had a sip of Champagne. Lol

Also noticed they all drink coffee by the gallon and smoke like chimneys -?

... compensation, by any chance? XD

I’m completely open about it and any new person I let me in my life I tell them from the get go. So that person can decide if they want a “junkie” as a friend or not lol.

But yeah family knows and so on. But think they will start raising there concern when I end up the street and defeated.

Been living a functional lifestyle with my addictions for the last 20yrs.

Psychedelics I leave for 3-4 times a year. Like a reboot. but shrooms are my all time favourite from that category.

Psychedelics, aren't in a category where people use them everyday, expect for a very few and I say that can do some damage. Also I have met people just like coffeeshroom2.0 who do other stuff and only mess with lsd, shrooms...ect every once in a while. I get the impression he is down for it, once in a while especially if someone has a big bag or a sheet of lsd, and is in generous mood; that is just my guess.

All of my close friends & family know now that I'm in recovery, but when I was using I tried to hide it at all costs.

Cool, so you could open up to some important ones... What a relief...

Always been to open, and as people pile drugs all on one big heap.

Concerning Psychedelics, Dissociatives and to a lesser extent Emphatogens.
People can t relate understand. The ones with zero to no experience.
Even my free attitude to be more liberal towards drugs, like Opiods/ Stimulants.
Reducing harm potential, along the way. And de-stigmatising the ones using.
If only dr s got it i d be more then satisfied.

And myself, as i said it out loud and anyone knows my point of view.

Forget it, no avail. next century. Maybe !
Today its very lightly stigmatising yourself,
though weed seems to have escaped the dance a bit

My friends and family all know that I'm a cannabis user and that I use psychedelics and other drugs from time to time, but I generally don't use anything other than cannabis openly around them and depending on who I'm around I may keep that hidden too.

In large part because most of my pisshead friends act like my casual illicit drug use is a big deal (not necessarily in judgemental terms) and I can't be bothered explaining to them that it isn't.

I don't have much patience for double standards or cognitive dissonance so it's often easier to avoid the subject completely.

 

[narkov]

sorry for ragging on ya, just it feels to us who earned them titles like it would a Dr or lawyer faking it/using it as a hanle.

im open about it when wont get me trouble, and speak not a word when it could. (open to friend, not so much my company ommander)

I ain’t ever been to the army, but i call myself drillsegant if i want, i get to disrespect the army however much i want, plus my country’s army could probably destroy your country’s army, so why should i show respect to your army. Nothing but disrespect for the army, unless you were drafted against your will, in which case I’m sorry to hear you had to go through this.

I’m open to everyone that i use drugs, but I’ve had to become less open, because I’m doing business with square ppl, and unfortunately it closes some doors, but it’s not for long, cos why should i hide it anyways, I’m balling, I’m doing cool shit. When I’ve done enough cool shit, no one will be able to say shit to me - that’s why i believe it’s important to be educated and to stay learning always, so you can flex on mfs that are judging you for doing drugs like “yeah I’m high af but i invented nuclear fusion and solved the world’s problems, get on my level” type shit.

People on the planet are often 600 to 3000 years behind on metaphysics, they don’t know shit.
