Last 2-2 1/2 weeks been hitting the pipe more than usual, f£#k knows why , not sure if it's severe denial that I have depression and other issues and that I am smoking more than usual, which I know sounds contradictory in some ways, or has the fact that I can't work and thus boredom sets in and gear gives interest of sorts . Also wondering how long this current mode is going on for? Admittedly at the end of January I will be without social payments for upto five weeks, so things will be tight and I doubt I will be having any sessions for a while! Anyone else this winter smoking more or sniffing more cocaine other than it being Christmas??
 
Merry sniffmas and a happy new gear!

Xmas can be a bad time for getting depressed which can definitely be a trigger for increased consumption. And the crizack gets so moreish it's hard to say no once you start.

Not to be a fun sponge cos I love the cocaine as much as the next guy and probably more than the last but take it easy and don't do yourself a mischief, the lady in white is a fickle mistress.

I had my first sesh on the ching in over a year last week purely by chance encounter with a friend that involved some dmt and a mutual friend but even after a year abstaining, as soon as I ripped that plaster off I was all guns blazing and craved it for days afterwards.

Whatever you choose to do take care.

Piss and fluff x
 
end of year is a difficult time for many people.
it's harder when you are already in a vulnerable spot.

but it's only a few days/weeks, and then comes january and the world begins to turn again, offering new possibilities.
just hold tight a bit and take care.
 
Hey there @just a coker 01 :)

It's a pretty well-known phenomenon that addicts will use more substances throughout the winter. This is mostly in reference to regions that have seasons, especially with rugged winters. For instance, I'm from Boston and I currently live in Vermont. It's understood among social workers that there will be more problems during the winter. When people are more confined, they tend to go crazier.

Covid-19 was a good example. People being more restricted to their homes caused a massive increase in substance use, specifically addictive/compulsive usage. What I mean by that is people deciding to use substances in the face of stress/anxiety are almost inevitably harming their mental health. It might not be "addiction" but it's not a positive response to these feelings.

This could be OP using more Cocaine, I'm assuming her drug of choice. It could also be a housewife having a whole bottle of wine every night instead of a couple of glasses. Winter is pretty much the same thing. Pretty much anything that can be done in the summer can be done in the winter... that doesn't mean people want to be doing it. Even "outdoorsy" people don't feel like standing around in 0F weather.

As we know, when we lose enrichment in our lives, our more basic urges can steer us into negative directions. They also say just the reduction in sunlight is enough to make people depressed. I think it's mostly due to less activity, mentally, physically etc. You have to prepare for winter by having stuff you can do that you enjoy.

You have to go outside, even if it's cold. If you don't like jogging, maybe you can ski, build a snowman, I got a dog myself and she keeps my active and having a purpose. She makes my winters that much better.
