Self imposed "rules" on drug use

I made rules for drug-use for years, but now I actually stick to them too.

Rules:
*I only do pain pills with money I earn from overtime. I have to earn at least 160 dollars of overtime before I will buy any.
*No more than 1/8 of weed per paycheck.
*No more than 1 DXM trip per week, and no more than 2 in a month (or else I get this horrid kind of depression and hopelessness, it's like E's 'suicide tuesdays.'
*No drinking at work.
*No smoking weed at work.

The DXM rule is the first rule I started following. It's because I had such an awful, horrid time when I broke the rule. Hardcore DXM abuse creates nasty chaos and pain in your mind. You get extremely self-destructive, or at least I do. After that, it was no weed or alcohol at work, because I would get bad panic attacks on the come-down. And now I actually have enough discipline over myself just to stick to my rules.

I highly encourage setting yourself rules and limitations. Use real numbers, too. I view it was part of your diet, really. If I'm doing drugs, then I don't do any soda or ice creams. But if I'm taking a break from drugs, I buy myself a mountain dew. A healthy diet really does make you feel better and happier.
 
Good viewpoints, and treating a drug like a candy or sweets is probably a logical approach.

Although i gotta say I was doing the dex probably 5-6 times a month and couldnt have been happier. Never had any of this, how you say, depression.
 
DXM made me feel like a dark cloud was always over me. Gloomy & Doomy. Used to have fun taking it though any way. I doubt I'd ever do it again in a million years though.
 
don't do it when it's not fun.

don't let it interfere (too much) with work, family, running or brain.
 
"I won't take anything today FOR SURE, ill wait until tomorrow because my tolerance is killing me." --> 10 minutes later --> "Fine but I definitely wont take anymore today, i have had enough." --> 3 hours later --> "ok well this is the last time tonight because its getting late and I wont sleep tonight if im not careful." --> 3 hours later --> "ok, I guess im not sleeping tonight."






lol wtf is wrong with me!
 
-Won't steal or rip anybody off (unless they do it to me) no matter how sick I get.

-Don't allow traffic at my house after dark.

-Pay the rent, utilities, and internet first, then whatever is left can be spent on drugs.

-Won't take drugs that make me act severely impaired. I only get high to feel GOOD, which is entirely different than fucked up. This means no alcohol, benzos, dissociatives, etc. in anything other than a relatively low dose; 99% of the time I abstain from those completely.

-Get done what needs to get done. Nothing pisses me off more than when people get all fucked up and don't come through- so I hold myself to the same standard. This applies to everything- work, school, deals, rides, everything.


Most importantly, I don't allow myself to miss social outings with friends or family because of drugs. Drugs are in my life to allow me to live it normally, not to blow off everyone and neurochemically jack off alone in my room.
 
The only rules I have for myself are don't let myself spend more money than I have, and don't get caught.
 
always make sure you have plenty of heavy machinery to operate

take as much of everything as you can and tell everyone (even if your making it up) cause drugs are cool and make you hardcore.

always try to share your drugs with others especially when they dont know about it, drink spiking is best.

share needles - its cheaper.

sleep when your dead.
 
I'd have to think back to when I used. Rules "for" using are of a different kind than rules against it. How complex can they be if you take something and lose your inhibitions? If they are adjusted to the drug use instead of adjusting the use to the rules, they are going to come out sounding like they're self-limiting. Drug use is not self-limiting. Drugs are only substances and lack the complexity to be something they aren't. Bruce Lee, Janis Joplin, Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, Chris Farley, John Belushi et al show you that drugs are lethal, but all their rules, and they were some rule-making sons-of-bitches, didn't stop them on that downward spiral you get psychologically from violating your own rules and feeling like a fool.

I don't look at it as a rule. I look at it as 12 years clean and sober. What rule? That if you leave your cigs laying around then dig 'em outta the trash? You don't like that? I know, and I just might go hang around a cancer ward and get a look at some of you in the moment when it is definite that your lung's coming out. I might get a T-shirt with a picture of lungs for ya. Don't worry about codified rules. Don't worry about the word, "death". Keep death as many steps away as you can.

How do you die and still follow the rules? The answer lies in the chronic vs. the acute risk. The acute risk can be reduced until an honest error which would kill you only wounds you. Chronic environmental hazards still kill you, but only in your golden years. Don't get cut down in the prime of life by drugs.
 
No drugs two days in a row. I like being sober between.
Look up a drug before taking it and usually read some trip reports. No addictive or dangerous drugs (heroine, cocaine, meth, datura).
Think about the experience on comedowns and afterglows.
 
-Keep my Xanax/clonazepam use to once a week, twice max.
-Codeine/opiate use to twice a week, occasionally i'll have three codeine doses a week tho.
-Mdma very rarely if at all anymore.
-Won't use amphetamines/psychedelics unless i have a bit of time off work.. and wont use without pharmaceuticals for the day after.
-Don't use needles.

I can't think of much more. Back when i was using alot heavier the only rule i always had was no needles, i'm glad i slowed down i feel alot better for it.
Nice thread idea, it's always good to have rules and boundaries with drug use.

Pretty much got me exactly the same way.

I personally dont want to trifle with those drugs you mentioned and thats exactly why. They aren't going to open my mind up anyway. I prefer the psych's.

These are some excellent rules, and ones I also used to adhere to when I was using.

Also, I deliberately limited my ROA to eating my pills only, never never snorting or anything else, (although I knew sooo many people who would snort their hydro, which I thought was a stupid waste.)

I made a vow to myself that, if I ever got caught, I would take the rap on my own and never get anyone else in trouble, even though my regular dealers were total assholes who would probably turn in their own mothers if it meant getting their own white trash asses out of a sling, so I never counted on similar consideration from them.

I would always make sure I had something left for when I got up in the morning, if I was running low, as that morning dose always seemed to be the most crucial for me, and the one I missed most when I gave it up. Getting out of bed was difficult when I knew I didn't have anything.

And throughout my years of addiction, I tried very diligently not to "lose" who I really am. There are just some morals, standards, and ethics that are part of what comprises a person's character, and I never allowed drugs to take that from me. That's not to say I never did anything I wasn't ashamed of; of course I did, but I drew many a line that I never did cross.
 
Most of the rules i just fucking break anyway....no point in even making a definitive, de facto, under NO circumstances shall this be broken commandment type rule rule.


except one.

Never share needles.
 
My rules are crap.. weed was a "once off," I ended up smoking everyday for years. Oxys were a once off, done them lots of times.. same crap with ciggarettes.

Also weed was supposed to be the only drug I'd try, I've tested a lot of different stuff and right now I'd try anything.

Rules are funnest to break anyway.
 
For me it is like anytime I plan to keep my drugs use moderate I can never actually commit to it. I mean all in all I don't even fuck with that many drugs, weed, benzos, opiates, shrooms, and very rarely some yayo. When I first tried percs, it was a great experience but ever since that first time I have been taking several week breaks for the opiates with no problems at all. However in a different scenario with xanax bars, the situation is different. I have a 100 bottle lying around the house all day and I can't help but pop some once in a while lol. Shrooms I can keep in moderation perfectly. I will only take them when the conditions are as idle as possible. Weed I smoke on a pretty much daily basis but in my opinion that is fine, it does not really fuck with you. Yayo I try to do as rarely as possible because last time I snorted a 50 to the dome all I wanted to do was get more after and that is just no good lol. Anyways that is how it is with me but I am sure it all depends on the person.

BTW: I wrote all of this sticked out of my mind idk if it makes any sense and I am too lazy to spell check it. Sorry =D
