Harm Reduction responsible use w/ herbal blends - avoiding dependancy/WDs/toxicity

[timsul999]

I'm aware of the stigma with synthetic blends (especially premades), and really didn't know whether posting this in OD or BL in general would get me decent feedback. From my experience, they're definitely worth something. they are not just for white trash, inept lowlifes, and dumb teenagers.

i'll give this to you though; you're definitely incompetent and stupid high on these. not a functional drug.

First of all, I'm technically new to blends. I've tried them a couple times in the past, dismissing them as a dirty pseudo-high for freaks & weirdos trying to get a fix. However, I felt compelled years later to give it another chance, to see if the scene had refined itself more in terms of what chems vendors use to give more desirable effects. So after trying one 3 days ago i'm converted, end of story.

I've been using a premade from a trusted source online, averaging about 2-3 sessions a day. i'm not only concerned what i'm imbibing myself with, but also the ensuing dependancy and withdrawal issues documented with this stuff. As a novice I'd really appreciate advice on how to handle smoking this responsibly. I don't want those horror stories I hear with compulsive users to become my reality. So if you use these, do you mind dishing out some advice in terms of smoking regimen/frequency of use that has allowed you to avoid adverse effects?

What "blends" are you talking about... blends of what?

Don't ever buy premade blends. You have zero idea what they put in these blends and it would not surprise me a single bit if some wise ass vendor comes up with the idea to add additional addictive substances (read opiates/benzos) simply just so people will get addicted and keep buying the blends.

No one can tell you exactly what side effects will come from smoking synthetics (JWH XXX / AM XXX + the newer AKB48 etc). I've smoked about 50g pure powder of different JWHs and some AM-XXX / akb48 during the last 6 years. I still do sometimes from time to time and I never really experienced any side effects except the occasional unpleasant overdose.

Otherwise the side effects are the same as cannabis but more pronounced. There will be some discomfort upon discontinuation, but for me I will feel worse if I had one night out drinking than if I have been smoking daily for months and suddenly stop. So withdrawal is not an issue.

We here at blue light don't generally offer responses to questions about "blends". We have no idea what's in them nor the ratios and likely, neither do you.

Not safe, keep your distance.

ohhhhhh, really?
bluelight's a discussion forum for drugs. a drug that is 'taboo' doesn't or shouldn't exist here. I mean I understand if start a thread about huffing computer duster or whatever because that really IS dangerous, but you shouldn't dismiss me just because i'm referring to something you don't like. it's laughable to mention harm potential w/ this stuff when you see addicts here consuming 200 mg of oxy a day. believe it or not, a userbase for blends does exist beyond kids who are desperate for weed and and can't get any.

anyways, I'm used to saying herbal blend, versus synthetic weed/cannabinoids. that's probably my fault and I should've rephrased the topic better... and put it in the weed focus forum.

sythetic weed wtf?!?!

why would anyone smoke this? is there really anywhere in the world weed is hard to get?

i would think the price of this is much higher also?
