OD demographics: by drug user type

[Immunity]

J-J-J-Junkieeeee here. Just started off with IV heroin, here's hoping I can be smart about it...

 

[smokeymcpot42088]

Im a Responsible Opiate User and I dont appreciate the derogatory term junkie being thrown around so lightly. just because we choose a different category of drug to ...

ha, no im a junkie....
(if the above speech/cliche was something that you believe to be true...run now. run far.)

My big problem was crack. I was vastly addicted to that about 4 years ago.

Now I'm just into weed and the occassional morphine/vic/oxy. Wouldn't call myself a junkie though, cuz it doesn't have me by the balls. if I had the opportunity to smoke crack again and I did get some, I know i'd be hooked again, so I will forever be a crackhead, even though I've been clean for a good long while.

junkie...1st month of pretty much no dope since January 08...so happy...not planning on going back...but I guess u never know.

 

[eazystar]

pill junkie.
don't know if that's something to be proud of, but we're in the lead!

 

[burn out]

wow, opiates have taken this by a wide margin. i expected them to get the most votes but i didn't think they would beat out all the stimulants by this much.

 

[getreal]

None of the above................

 

[LivingOnValium]

1. Tweaker
2. GABAergic jockie
3. Alcoholic

 

[rachamim]

No doubt, 100% junkie.

Well, I do not know if it is the point but I see others explaining how they came to think of themselves as junkies, medical prescriptions and whatnot. If it matters, I also became an addict that way. I have tried many things over the years, spice of life as they say, but for many years it has been strictly opiates/opioids.

 

[ebola?]

I tried to make all of the categories pejorative. I couldn't think of one for the misc. gabanergic category.

Benzo zombie?
G-tard?

I left out cannabis, mdma, and psychedelics 'cause they'd skew it too badly.
Everyone would identify as a pot-head (well, most).

 

[Hendrix Haze15]

Junkie/speedballer all the way. Nothing can even come close to the feeling of shooting a good speedball. And I second what keygen said, if your not IVing your wasting your money in my opinion.

 

[FlowMotion]

I Oxy

 

[Johnny blue]

Insuffalating oxy junky present and accounted for.

 

[gorgoroth]

tweaker

 

[Mind-Melt]

IV heroin ftw

 

[vonchampz]

Since I only had 1 vote; junkie.... But really I would label myself a junkie/Misc. GABAnergic jockey/tweaker... poly drug user I guess

 

[kratom luver]

Pod junky here.

 

[clovurr]

Junkie/speedballer all the way. Nothing can even come close to the feeling of shooting a good speedball.

junkie here - followed closely by GABAergic jockey and coke-fiend(more so in the past). as Hendrix Haze said, nothing beats a good speedball(that i've done so far). Haven't tried meth yet but i fear i would enjoy it a little too much. i can see it getting quite a nasty grip on me so for now i shall stay away. though someday i would like to try it. . .

 

[the_ketaman]

As of now im a junky, oxy to be specific but when I first came here I mostly abused meth, havent done meth in about 3 or 4 months now though, unless its been in a pill which doesnt really count because I didnt plan to have it.

Opiates are boring, I used to adore them but now theyre only really good when im angry or wanting to escape or if im coming down hard and need something to chill me out, and pain of course, its such a shame that meth is so bad for you because im now starting to think that a nice shot or bowl of meth is better than oxy, ill be having some heroin in a few days though so ill be able to tell if H is better than oxy...The only times ive ever had H I think it was just crushed morphine or oxys or something, it certainly didnt smell or taste like vinegar.

 

[rincewindrocks]

I was pretty addicted to ketamine for a while, but my relationship with cocaine lasts/ed much longer. When I was into ketamine, i was doing somewhere between .75 to 1 gram a day, whereas with cocaine I never did more than .5g a day
