But have I ever acted with a women that did drugs? Nope
Or maybe you did and just didn't notice? What is your definition of interactions?
How do you even meet people who use drugs irl? Male or female whatever?
In my life there are very few people I am close enough to to even know that about them. And that's 4 persons of whom 3 are female - and all they do is weed and a rare trip once in a while.
It's not usually written over the faces right? I might have some interaction, even regularly, and still wouldn't know whether or not they use drugs. It takes some trust to let another person know, right?

two insane ppl is a tough relationship to maintain.
💯 - though it might be great for a while...

Interaction to me is sitting down at the crib with the girl on xans and chopping it up.
Talking to a girl on ketamine or something just chatting. Seems like every block here in America you'll catch a stoner so I don't really count weed in this scenario
have i physically sat with a girl of my liking who participates in our world..... nah
itd be lit though id fuck with it until i realize we both are wild lol
im still young maybe I'd find amywhinehouse out there someday but I'm in my drug era so I'm not even looking especially a no good user like me lol
 
Changed my vote to ketamine.

Really cannot see the attraction with that stuff.

Its a bit like tripping, but not quite.

Doesn't last long enough.

MXE blows it out of the water.

Don't understand why it's so popular in clubs/pubs.

And that minty fuckin drip really pisses me off... 😃
 
@mirsNeedsHisItch So you're talking about real life? That might be difficult. But online there are enough around - or at least I know several... It's definitely easier to find people in drug-related forums or servers. There's almost no such meeting places irl aside maybe the detox wards..

Changed my vote to ketamine

But sometimes it's good to have something short lasting. It's practical for in between, cause it hits instantly, yet doesn't knock you out or fuck you up for hours - which is the reason why I don't take dxm or psychedelics very often (in recreational doses ). They just need too much of time and are usually not very functional...

The most useless drug is the one you can't have...

Minty!?? I only ever had a terrible chemical taste from it - so just boof it 🤷
 
When I was young, I knew plenty of women who liked to get high, but it was never an addiction for any of us, and as they got older they gave up everything but weed. I myself became pretty irregular at getting high for many years because of testing at work and my commitments. I did have a few periods of having casual relationships with some crack smoking women, one of whom would sometimes persuade herself that she loved me, but when the urge to smoke a rock came up, as it always did, she would forget all about me. Fuck that.
It was kind of interesting to me to hang out with those folks for awhile there and smoke a little, get to know them, but I really didn't care for the crack high-and-crash at all, and I realized I couldn't truly trust them. Besides the sex is pretty shitty when the drug is the most important thing to them. But I think fondly of them and hope they are ok.
I do believe you can have a nice enough relationship with a fellow druggie, especially if both parties have got some maturity and control about it all. But it could certainly create a lot of stresses, depending on the drug. Psychedelics would be fun. But not drugs with fiendish behavior. Probably having relationships with sober women who have been unaware of the extent of my dabbling has saved me from causing myself some trouble, but by nature I'm not much of a fiend.
Thinking fondly of you Maritza and Mary, hope you are alive and happy! 😘
 
Years ago - in my junky/crackhead era - I had a lengthy relationship with a woman who used drugs before me but never heroin and crack.

I truly hate to admit that I introduced her to both in my addict-minded weakness. What ensued were many years of spiralling addictions and pathological co-dependency. It became entirely about the drugs. Our sparks were all but extinguished.

We became more like partners in crime - soulmates in many ways - than a meaningful romantic partnership.

Eventually we broke up when I decided to quit the hard drugs - she wasn’t ready to so we went our separate ways.

After that I met a wonderful woman who loved her weed, MDMA and psyches. She healed my soul… and then she died from cancer.

Sometime later I met Sadie via BL and, after various events passed, we became a couple. She likes her MDMA and the odd psyche which suits me perfectly. We will grow old together. Happy. As one.

Age can have its benefits 👍
 
Mxe is the best drug overall imo. It’s worlds above any other dissociative as an overall drug. I find dxm a bit more complex psychedelically but mxe is way more hedonistic and recreational. Mxe can be a functional stimulant, analgesic sedative, a psychedelic, it’s got it all.

Big agree here. It is (was) incredibly versatile and was amazing when used alongside lots of other drugs or just by itself.

I tried a bunch of RC dissociatives and MXE was not only the best, it was better IMO than actual ketamine and PCP.

There have been so many sub-par ket analogues over the years. 2-FDCK was pretty good, though. Ahh, it just makes me sad that MXE is gone. Why is it that the good ones are the ones to disappear? Oh yeah... because they were too good, probably.

This almost certainly has to do with the difficulty of synthesis, issues with precursor acquisition , small market of people who actually use RC dissos, and furthered illegality of the RC market. In the last couple years, clandestine ketamine synthesis has taken off it seems, but the precursor necessary for MXE is still an insane pain in the ass to acquire, especially when you consider that people tend to dose MXE far higher than things like 3-HO-PCP/3-HO-PCE, which are each even easier to make from similar (or the same) precursors.

Thanks for that context, Esperighanto. I didn't know that.

Is 3-MeO-PCP and/or 3-HO-PCE still around? I liked both of those, too. Definitely not as user friendly as MXE (and I got my ass kicked by 3-meo once pretty hard because I didn't respect it enough) but great compounds nonetheless.

3-HO-PCP is the last one and it's going to be eventually fully dried up imminently, there's a big lull occurring recently with most RC production, it'll ramp back up in the next year or so though in my opinion.
 
Why decided to try fet once, just so I can have some understanding of how it affects someone and why users continue using. Took a couple hits off some foil, and I felt great for about ten minutes before I nodded off. Woke up the next morning with instant cravings. I never felt so horrible after just one little session with anything before or after. Not even meth does that to me. That was how I discovered blues aren't ever going to be one of my vices.
 
Interesting. Maybe it would be worth at least giving a proper try then.

DXM was so unpredictable. Some times I'd have an okay trip, nothing special, other times I'd get so high that I'd have the time of my life & then other times I'd get really freaked out & think I'm dying.

Over the years of 2015-2018, I went through a bad break up. And was heavily addicted to tramadol & heroin. And whenever I couldn't get any opioids, I'd do DXM. So I probably did DXM hundreds of times over just those 3 years. And I can remember a few trips, where I'd be high as hell, but still fine & even functional & then I'd smoke a fat bowl of weed on top of it & it would completely change the trip into something else. And it always came as a huge surprise when it would happen. I'd suddenly feel like my head & body was just completely full of air. And I'd feel like my soul was about to leave my body. Scared the shit out of me. Both of the worst times it happened, happened in front of two different friends of mine. One had to drive me home (I had walked over to her house just fine earlier in the day, then smoked & my trip became something completely different & I could no longer walk lol). And once she got me home, I laid on the couch by my mom & just kept telling her "I think I'm dying". It truly felt like my soul had left my body & was just floating around on the ceiling. And it almost felt like I was watching the last few moments of my life play out, almost like a movie. But eventually I took a klonopin, which helped bring me back down some what & then I took a nap. Woke up later that day feeling like I had truly survived death & was so grateful to alive & sane again. lol

DXM has done some wild things to me. One of my favorite aspects of DXM was the weird paranormal/psychic phenomenon that it caused. Lots of synchronicities & paranormal stuff would happen when I'd use DXM. And my mom & friends would witness it with me, so I know it wasn't just me seeing shit. It got so bad that whenever my friend was having a weird day, she'd hit me up & ask me if I was doing DXM. lol

Does ketamine have that paranormal/synchonicity/reality-altering effect too (if anyone even knows what I'm talking about lol)?

FYI I was a heavy dxm user when younger. It completely fucked my brain development. Might have even given me a severe case of a complex or something. But I had experiences just like yours.

Things do happen like that with dxm.

Easy and I did develop magnetic personalities and we were people
Of great stature within our friend group. We cultivated a social landscape for everyone.

Ultimately easy chose heroin over glory and he ended up dying under really strange circumstances. He’s legend to me now. I carry him with me in everything I do.

In fact, until easy died I had never done heroin, but when I did, I did it because easy was dead and the twin stars that we had been birthed as a result
Of our dxm adventures. The way it shaped our minds and our way of seeing.

We were forged in that god chemical.

DXM is fucking weird.
Salvia is fucking weird.

And they’re possibly the greatest drugs on earth.

Because they actually alter the fabric of reality.

Have to agree here. Really makes me wonder what it is about DXM that does this.

Also makes me wonder if this effect happens at small doses & what exactly takes place during cold & flu season when everybody's chugging robitussin to quiet their coughs. lol

Even acid & psychedelics don't alter the fabric of reality like DXM does.

Yeah. When I took acid I had thoughts like “everyone in the world took acid today.” But dxm feels really close and personal. Like you found a window under your pillow and went through it to find yourself in an open field. I’ve tripped dxm where reality itself was altered and then I’ve tripped so hard it went cosmic. But regardless the after effects of dxm go in for years. Yeah there was crippling sadness but that might have been just me au naturale. But there was also that really unique way of seeing and being that comes from the disso equivalent of ego death, forgetting whom you are, and when you forget who you are and surrender any ideas of self importance, you end up being a really fun person to be around for a lot of people. Even though you kind of lose yourself for a bit. You do rediscover yourself.

I miss easy dearly. I hope your friends are well.

Maybe another thing that makes dxm and sally unique is that there’s no real detrimental effects to memory formation so you can integrate the experience almost completely. Perception becomes reality.

Totally agree. I used to buy oxy from a guy who didn’t know the value of what he had so - in addition to seriously knockdown prices - would often throw in some fent patches for free to sweeten the deal.

I went through a phase of just nodding out all day vaping fent from foil and was super impressed by the potency, but not at all impressed by the effects.

Whilst the high is intense, it is also totally uninteresting. Many other opis have some kinda depth to them. Some “colour” and “texture”. Something - just something - about them.

Fent, to me, felt totally empty. Poppy Crack is all it is. Knocks you the fuck out then leaves you wanting more… but not sure why you even give a fuck :\

It's like, you could just go to the store and pick up a bottle of name brand sleeping pills for the price of a pill lol but I'm also not much of a downer guy. I'd rather take something that'll make me active instead of sleepy. Never thought I'd see the day when meth is the safer option lol

I didn't try fent and hopefully never will (also accidentally). But opiods don't make me sleepy. It depends on the dose and the doses I choose usually don't make me nod. Even H for the short time I used it, I nodded on only twice: once before I knew my dose and once when I mixed it. They're actually making it easier for me to be active, especially Tramadol... And the heavy fatigue that hits me whenever I try to taper or quit is a massive obstacle...
