Uppers or Downers?

I personally never done any uppers, except caffeine. It just doesn't seem like something I would like, with the energy and all. But it works for a lot of people. I would like to feel what the actual high itself feels like.

On the other hand, I do enjoy downers quite a lot. Most of the time, just pills; vikes, percs, norco, morphine, etc. Never done heroin, but I plan to try it and use it as a rescue medication basis for my migraines (please no "don't do it" or "see a doctor" talk. I'm going to do it anyway. I know the risks).

Every now and again I go to the ER with a migraine and get a shot of dilaudid. That shit has an amazing rush and a decent high, it just doesn't last very long. For me anyway. It lasted like two hours the first few times I had it. Then it was only an hour or so. Even if I don't have it for awhile (longest I've gone without it in the last three years was a year and then some) it only last about forty five minutes, maybe an hour, an hour and a half at the most. Nothing beats that rush.

So what are you? An upper person? A downer person? Like 'em equally? Like them both but prefer one over the other? Or take anything you can get?
 
I feel like I have seen pretty much this exact thread topic in DC before, could be wrong on that but either way this seems more suited for there than BDD to me. Obviously that call is up to the relevant moderators though.

I prefer downers these days but I still enjoy stimulants in the right setting, with the notable exception of alcohol I would much rather party on stimulants than depressants.
 
I am most definitely a downer. I am anxiety-prone and high strung, the last thing I need is an upper. Benzos and opioids are my DOC hands down.
 
Downers. I've taken a top of ups but they definitely tweak my anxiety levels , the catch is, when downers wear off after you've become addicted
your anxiety gets tweaked all the same. Cause and Effect.
 
This is a tough one for me.
You can't really compare the 2, imo.

You can't really do uppers everyday like you can with downers.

I see it like this, downers for daily activities..
Uppers for parties, etc..
 
Uppers, then downers. I don't have the psychological peppiness to seek out psychedelic trips all that much these days.
 
I generally prefer downers as their effects are easier to deal with. That said I don't really enjoy going out to clubs without at least some sort of stimulant in my system, be it ritalin, speed or an MDMA-like drug. When taking these in larger amounts I almost always mix them with alcohol to help combat negative side effects. I do like my daily caffeine intake as well, and I prefer low, stimulating doses of kratom over the more sedating high doses.
 
I'm definitely a downer guy.I suffer from a pretty bad panic disorder and stims of any kind are a nightmare for me.It's benzos and opiates for me.I have legal prescriptions for legitimate conditions but I'm not gonna lie and pretend that I don't occasionally over take my meds to get high.The benzo and opiate combo is by far my favorite.I also like to add some whisky to the mix.A handfull of percs and xannies with a few glasses of bourbon really does me right.Sure,I know it's dangerous for a lot of people but I've been doing this a long time and it's my call to make. I've done the combo for years and find this mixture to be the best thing for me in any situation.I just adjust the ammounts if I have to be out in public or I've got things to do.Before quitting heroin,my perfect day was to pop 20mg of Xanax while shooting dope and drinking all day and into the night.Man,talk about pure fucked up euphoria.For some reason I survived many years of doing this on a regular basis.But yeah,downers,totally.I can't imagine what enjoyment someone would get from being tweaked out.I have to take medicine every day to not feel like that.Plus,everyone I've known who has been heavily into stims,be it crack or amphetamines or whatever,always seemed to be out of their minds after a while,even when they weren't on the drugs at the moment.Stimulants seem to drive people crazy.
 
Used to be haaaaarrrrd into uppers...i was a daily meth user for years...and yeah, toward the end it def was not helping my mental health out at all, haha...once transitioning to downers (benzo's occasionally, but opiates mainly), i am now a firm devotee of the downer side of things. don't get me wrong, i believe all kinds of drugs have their place(s), but at the moment, for me it's opiates.
 
Downers for me. Just love that feeling of eternity where you can stay for ever. I love nodding and the 24 hours movie playlist. I hate stress and anxiety feelings. Just wanna' feel calm for ever ... ;)
 
I prefer downers. My thing used to be uppers but after I got rid of my terrible coke and crack habit things changed. I love the opiates I am more functional and can take them at work. They help me work better actually. The paranoia and jittery feeling from uppers ruin it for me in a social setting.
 
i love getting the perfect dose of dexamphetamine and xanax and/or valium right and taking that. pretty much the best high i ever had was mdma with oxycodone parachuted together so im conflicted, lol.

id definatly go with downers if i had to choose though.
 
I am a naturally anxious overthinker and if I could get some permanent CNS depression for the rest of my existence it would be just lovely. So yes, downers for me plz.
