hey everyone. i'm 24 years old from NC, been using BL for several years but never joined til now. first heard of it from a couple friends of mine who i think still post regularly. i often use this as my first stop for finding info and first-hand experiences about whatever drug i'm curious about. it's a great site, especially compared to other drug forums where threads quickly degenerate into berating new or inexperienced users. most everyone seems real chill and level-headed, which i think is cool, albeit rare.
a little background on myself: started smoking weed occasionally when i was 13, regularly since i was 16. i also use alprazolam daily as prescribed for anxiety. i've experimented with more than a few drugs; namely shrooms, x, blow, ketamine, pills, etc. but the one that got me into trouble was heroin. never got into poking (thank god) but started chasing the dragon w/ my gf at 19 (around the time we moved away from home together). that went on for about 3 blissful, horrible years. eventually my parents wisened up to what was going on and offered treatment to my gf and myself; i was fortunate enough to have the self-control and determination to kick it cold, but my gf went through methadone treatment for well over a year... but thats a whole other nightmare for another time.
things are better today. we're both clean of any opiates now for maybe a couple years, i lost track. my gf and i are now engaged as of last month, and we're stronger than ever. i was able to maintain my full-time job throughout addiction and withdrawal, where i still work, and plan to make a career out of it. i'm still smoking reef, and i dont see that changing anytime soon lol, but i've not really touched anything else other than booze, my prescribed meds and the rare painkiller here and there.
so, i guess that was my life story, lol. didnt mean to go on that long, but just wanted to properly introduce myself to you guys.
