If I look back at my drug career I notice a distinct pattern of my body/mind rejecting drugs I am abusing by making it simply impossible to use them any further. Can anyone relate?

I have been abusing herb.
Now just one puff gives me INSANE anxiety.

I have been smoking tobacco.
Now smoking gives me strong anxiety and guilt trips.

I have been using caffeine.
Now I have become super sensitive, anxious and my heart hates even a single cup of coffee.

I have been abusing MDMA type drugs.
Now even half a dose gives me heart racing and great anxietyu blotting out all roll effects.

I have been using psychedelics in high doses.
Now I am super sensitive to psychedelics and high doses have become instant bad trips for me.

Right now I basically use Psychedelics and Dissociatives, to good effect.

But see the very clear pattern?

Does anyone have this too? Can someone shine a light?
 
same with me dude i just fall for it every time and try another bad trip once in a while , each time i trip it leads to bad trip , now i aint doing psychedelics for fun anymore just for shamanic purposes in one trip i acctually break through the fear and got good tripnig insane bad trip before that though ,

i was getting insane anxiety from weed until i used shitloads of it now weed is my drug of choice , i have only bad trip with mdma , ok am not sensitive to caffeine or tobaco but tobacco gives me heart race .
 
I'm the same. I wonder how you can still take psychedelics if they cause you anxiety though.
The only drugs i take now are downers, sparingly, cause they're very addictive.

The reason no longer being able to tolerate drugs?
I guess i'm more sensitive than people who can take a lot more of them.
I'm more sensitive to my "inner thoughts and feelings" as well i guess
 
Yeah I think I basically have the same issues. If I do anything that can exacerbate anxiety I typically want to be on a small to medium dose of a benzo.

I kind of look at it as the reason why I got turned to opiates and now find myself addicted. I was an everyday smoker before my opiate addiction. But it was a hassle knowing I would develop anxiety attacks so often from smoking. Opiates seemed like a great substitute because they hardly ever increased my anxiety, mostly they decrease it (though the amount they decreased it began to significantly decrease).

It can be very odd to remember how much fun you use to have from using some of these drugs. Then you think about using them now and how it will do more to set you on edge than to have a good time, so you avoid them.
 
YES! The same thing happens to me. I've noticed though that after long periods of time off that certain drug that I can use it again a few times before my body and mind will reject it, provided that I am in a really good mood at the time I take and with a good set and setting. Also I don't want to recommend this but if I drink alcohol or take benzos before I can take the drug again because my anxiety will be eliminated. I just need to take sure I have something to come down with and also something to take the next day for the anxiety and depression. It sucks, I can't take any drug anymore unless I properly plan it out unless I want to have a guaranteed bad time. I even get really bad effects if I abuse benzos and opiates as well, I just don't get the anxiety while I am on them but after they wear off I do.
 
Yeah it's common for certain drugs, especially the ones you mentioned, (mainly stims and psychedelics/MDMA). After periods of time off them or just being in a different state in life, whatever, they start to affect you differently and usually in a negative way.
 
I used to smoke weed practically 24/7 then one day I had an anxiety attack while high and haven't been able to smoke since without taking a benzo as well.
I was just getting into MDMA years ago then all of a sudden every time I would dose I would break out in itchy red blotches in the same spots every time. Which sucks. I really liked MDMA. :(
 
It is obvious that your body is trying to tell you something?

Same thing with cannabis and getting anxious when overdoing it.
Furthermore cigarettes simply start making me nauseaus when I smoke too much.

Also with alcohol it became very clear after long time weekend consumtion of maybe close to 10 years that this fucks with your head more than say THC ever could.
