drug warning stories

tryptych

waiting for a time
weeeeeeel...............

as it happens i do look back, half in fear-half in shame, and remember that for a period of time in 94, about two months, i did actually believe that i was able to defy gravity.

i first remembered this a couple of years ago, from the security of ten years of abstinence from drugs, and it was quite a shock. like, jesus what might i have actually done?

at the time i remember getting up early in the morning and smoking skunk. the worst was when i tried to kick tobacco, and then i really went headlong into it. i think the baccy sorta leavened and grounded the experience but without it.....sheesh.

i can remember doing a lot of jumping, in the park, at the basement where i worked (dont laugh! it's not funny! well, i suppose it is really! :D) and really feeling that i was able to float in the air.

crazy shit.

Can you clarify - were you just smoking a lot of weed at the time, or were you on something stronger?

I mean, thinking you can defy gravity... that's bordering into psychotic break territory surely...

^^ That also goes for my addiction to arguing with people on Internet messageboards, btw.

At least you're not a coward who makes up new logins so you can yell at people for their behavior on message boards, right?

skunk is really really strong, right? isn't it sprayed with some kind of chemical, like a dippy?

not by definition, altho it can be - hairspray sometimes, sticky icky :eek:

chemicals are almost always used in growing 'skunk' - fertilizers, 'miracle grow' etc.

One night at some godawful rock club I used to go to with some pals when we were about 16/17, this wasted kid spent half an hour trying to explain to me (while I was hammered on a couple of vodkas) how he could mutate his own DNA, how he could read the future by watching TV and memorising certain "key phrases", how he was one a few select super humans being activated by cosmic rays and how I couldn't tell anyone as secret government agents would try and kill him. But not to worry, as he had developed his own special "invincible" martial arts style. Confused, I asked if this was a film he was writing or something, he didn't take that too well and started ranting about how I was brainwashed.

I wonder if he woke up the next day thinking "what the fuck was I on about?".

there was this really bad rock club that i used to go to when i was 16 and leaving near manchester- can't remember the name of it for the life of me, but it'sthe really famous one. ritzy's, or something?

anyway, there was like a tunnel bit of it where all the drug casualties went to flop around, and once we saw a really fucked girl there bite open a glowstick. it was all dribbling down her chin. quite a sight.

the things people do to have fun, eh?

Maybe, from what I could tell, he seemed to be speeding, perhaps on acid as well.

This was in Liverpool's Krazyhouse, at the height of baggy pants rap-metal. Some of those records were quite funny, like Limp Bizkit's cover of "Faith".

i always wonder how prevalant drugs are in different places. in the u.s. it varies a lot by region, but there's always at least one hard drug readily available where you live

Yeah, even in the rural area I live in I've been offered ecstacy. I think there's some sort of redneck rave scene a couple hours south though.

Boy and girl meet and launch themselves into a whirlwind relationship based on a shared lack of self-control as far as booze, substances, and staying up all night are concerned. She manages a bar where they can hang out until noon the next day! A friend just scored enough mushrooms to last the entire summer! Another friend has great ecstasy/prescription meds/coke connections! The whole world can go fuck itself! (Except between 9 and 6 Monday to Friday when he has to go to a square job.) Anyway, they're going to Spend The Rest Of Their Lives Together so they can start Behaving Like Grown Ups once they've Figured Out A Plan. They sublet a friend's apartment in anticipation of moving to a new city together later that year but find themselves arguing a lot. Boy reasons that perhaps they have some issues to work out that might best be resolved in a spirit of abstinence, or at least moderation. Girl dumps his ass.

i'd be careful of suspicious ecstasy--a lot of people sell PMA which makes you really sick.
not that you were probably tempted!

aw. it is probably better this way, if it wasn't working out. coke definitely induces a lot of fighting within a relationship...or just makes people have a lot of rage outbursts in general

hey wait--people in the UK had to suffer through baggypants rap-metal?? i thought that was a solely american affliction

yeah, but it's easier to create in a lab, so people who don't have sophisticated enough lab equipment sell it instead of mdma because it has some similar effects

re: drugs and relationships

I was seeing a girl for a while that just wanted to stay in every night and smoke weed. God, she was boring.
