Well, dead catholics are pretty cool.

Only if they're being fed to lions.



Ontopic: I have smoked pot once or twice. It didn't do anything for me. I think I tripped out more over the fact that it was supplied by (and smoked together with) my mate's mum.

My Co-op teacher showed a video on why hard drugs are bad Yesterday. You know what's gross? Seeing the resulting wound from a meth addict who scratches bugs out of her arms. Goddamn Vancouver sounds so unappealing.

I got high on Meth in when I was with my bf in USA.... I had terrible ear pain and somehow my bf thought meth would help(he has it for migraines)... My face started itching, i started feeling panicky and I started crying all of a sudden followed by an uncontrollable laughing fit. I wouldn't wanna be addicted to meth if that's the results :/

And btw the ear pain stayed the same.

Chris takes meth for.....headaches?

Wings of Fire 09-04-2009 10:32 AM

Not really

Um... I wouldn't call them headaches... More like migraines, and It's not something easy to deal with... They are mostly for his mom though, who deals with worse headaches.
I took them on the way home from Virginia beach after getting ... some sort of ear infection I think.

The ear drops worked better.

(oh and his mom is a nurse).

EDIT: Im not talking about pure drugs guys >_< It's methadone....

OANST 09-04-2009 11:01 AM

Good lord. Meth is not the abbreviation of Methadone. When talking about Meth, you are referring to Methamphetamine, which is a completely different drug altogether.

Sekto Springs 09-04-2009 11:13 AM

I call it meth to screw with people.

Nate 09-04-2009 08:58 PM

In any case, it's meant to be LSD that's used to cure migraines, not methadone or crystal meth.
And, yes, I learnt that from House.

Beer is a drink. Alcohol is a drug.

Go watch Brasseye. Become a better person. Oh, also pick up a sense of humour.

I knew this because I'd heard that whatisname took LSD for a migraine when he discovered DNA. I'm fairly confident it's correct that he was on lSD, whether it was for a migraine i'm less certain.

Has anyone besides me ever experienced this? It's hard to explain if you have not. I used to smoke happily and free of troubles, Then one day I sparked a blunt with my mates and the increased heart beat started to trouble me, my legs felt very funny and I was all shaking. I felt so in the moment that it was disturbing focusing to much on others body language and motives then actually contributing to conversations. Which you guessed it can lead to people talking crap about, right in front of my face. And I would either get really angry or hurt. Well I had to stop because it was so frightening of an experience losing control like that. I thought I was the only one but i found some others that shared the experience. It supposedly happens if your mood isn't right going into the high.. smoking to much and being uncomfortable at the level your on, or the people your around you don't know to well and aren't trust worthy. I have quit smoking both cigarettes and marijuana in an effort to live a long and healthy life. And also so I can hopefully make varsity in basketball this year in school. I would like to light up some reefer when school's over with but I want it to be the way it used to be.

So please share your story's or experiences.

I'm ascurred that someday the same thing will happen to me. After four years of smoking, two of them intensive (professional pothead ftw), I've never had any major anxiety issue. I've had the same thing happen to two of my close friends though, neither of whom enjoy toking it up anymore, which kind of sucks. I've met a few others throughout my days who say the same thing. I wish I could understand how it feels for them, but courtesy of the fact psychoactives affect everyone differently (nobody thinks and processes information exactly the same, after all) I won't know it until I feel it. I just wish they could still have the same enjoyable sensation from the blessed plant as I do.

Though frustrating, it's not as aggravating to me as the polarization people seem to have with mushrooms, though. In my experience, there's the people who love em' and have consistently enjoyable, insightful and revelatory trips, like me (I've noticed most every drug user has a substance that they form a particularly intimate relationship with, mine is psilocybin). Then there's the people who like the fucked up sensation but have a shallow appreciation, and will therefore have a good time but not take much out of it. And then there's the people who can't help but go insane inside their own head and freak out, for reasons that I can only guess to be personal insecurities or closet depression. The members of the latter group think the people like me are crazy, and vice versa.

Bullet Magnet 09-07-2009 06:54 AM

Then there are the people who are completely dewired after a single trip, and never again leave that bad place.

MA 09-08-2009 01:38 PM

spot on there BM.

also anxiety is fucking shit. if you have had it extremely bad, you don't want to chance getting it again, so i can see where your friends are coming from Majic.

AnGrY_GreeteR 09-12-2009 10:56 AM

Point well made Majic
 
Yeah the bad experience is just part of it for some people. And i wouldn't wish it on anyone else after going through the valley of death a couple of times. But like you guys said the thought process un-wiring involved is not pleasant and luckily I have always woke up the same person. My relationship with weed is gone for now, It's not much fun when your constantly around your parents or authority figures so until I get my own place I might fool around with Mary Jane a few more times too see what happens. I dont understand the kids that will wake up and smoke before school and stuff like that. I have tryed going out in lunch and smoking up and going to class it was THE worst experience I had and I moved schools afterwards and got my shit together. Education is everything..

Sekto Springs 09-12-2009 11:08 AM

I put some ecstasy in my butthole. I didn't feel paranoia but I felt something...

Pilot 09-12-2009 02:44 PM

No you didn't Chris.

Plus, I can't remember if I already said this but as for the weed paranoia, this happens every time I've even been stoned out of my mind so I don't do that anymore... all it takes it a tiny hit though to mellow things out.

And for the record; those of you who like shrooms and live in the US, try Salvia. It's legal and can be ordered over the internet... and according to a comment Leto made a while back "Salvia is like Shrooms for pussies" you might want to try it. It comes in all different strengths.

Hobo 09-12-2009 03:03 PM

Salvia fucks people up. I know one person who thought he was a steam train for a few hours.

Leto 09-12-2009 03:10 PM

wah wah waaaaaaaaaaaah

salvia fucks you up

for 15 minutes

i'd go as far to say it's one of the least harmful common drugs

sure, you think you're a train/wall/the sky/the floor/a blade of grass

but it's effects are so very short

is it legal in the uk?

Hobo 09-12-2009 03:13 PM

It wasn't when I heard that story, but it might have slipped past me since.

Also; funny you mention that his best friend thought he was a wall.

Leto 09-12-2009 03:15 PM

It's very common to become a wall/the floor/the roof I've found, as in nearly everyone I've known who's done it has become one of those three. I'm sure they could market it as "BECOME A HOUSE" drug

Strike Witch 09-12-2009 03:16 PM

Haha, substance abuse sure is funny.

We've got a few druggies at our Catholic school, they're still pretty aware but then they've only been lighting up for a little while.

Pilot 09-12-2009 03:28 PM

We're talking about substance use, not substance abuse, Darling. Some of us are.

Strike Witch 09-12-2009 03:29 PM

Eh, it's all French to me.

Could become popular at house parties.



Alternative punchline: But then we'd have all these kids running around shouting "IT'S NOT LUPUS!"


Sorry.

Leto 09-12-2009 07:29 PM

ROLL EYES, NATE.

a tad late, but a big lolwut to the methodone/methamphetamine confusion way up there.

Pilot 09-12-2009 08:27 PM

I'm high right now. *cough*

But not so high that I can't type.

used:) 09-12-2009 08:47 PM

Interestingly, I'm so type I can't high.

Leto 09-13-2009 02:27 AM

Becoming intoxicated doesn't at all affect my typing skills (or texting skills). In fact, because of the expectation that people are going to suspect I'm intoxicated, I usually double/triple check everything for total accuracy.

Then again, I'm a stupid motherfucker.

Well it was actually a coughdrop, but still...

How aware can you possibly be if you go to a Catholic School?
