    To the young’uns - when you see someone in their 50s or 60s nowadays, just remember that a huge chunk of us spent the entire 90s utterly fucked up on coke, ecstasy, dope and LSD, listening to extremely loud electronic music

    That’s why we’re all a bit weird, and deaf 😊

    Basically everything.

    Except opiates, barbiturates, and REEEALLY specific RCs, but I’ve tried a lot of weird RCs. Wellll I also have smoked opium a few times. It was awesome. Never any hard opiates. Too scary.

    Oh, also never had mescaline. Would try it though.

    The weirdest of all of them was Foxy (5-MeO-DiPT)

    The most addictive was Mephedrone (scary)

    The worst one was DOC… I was ready to be done a few hours in. NOPE OVER TWENTY HOURS

      Opium is a SCORE, still a top 3 on my list. Any story to that?

      What is your take on the 5-MeO ones for intermediate psych users? I’ve heard lots of mixed opinions on them from my circles

        Yeah!

        Opium first time: handed a bowl at a festival circle, took a hit… instead of flower, it was flowery! Didn’t do much, but smelled and tasted nice.

        Next time: Friend’s house. Smoked a decent chunk. Smelled great, felt kinda like more relaxing weed. Was nice.

        Final time: With my partner, when we had begun dating like a decade ago. A good chunk. We smoked all of it on their bed and watched “Memoirs of a Geisha.” It smelled and tasted lovely. I got fucking SPLAPPED. Like, I’ve never felt anything like it. Absolute 10, and that’s when I knew I’m not touching opiates again until I’m terminal.

        Foxy… the most fucking weird thing I’ve ever done. Tried it with my previous partner. It was a nightmare for most of it. Beyond visual and auditory distortions, we literally had temporal distortion. Songs we were familiar with would streeeeetccchhh out and go slower, and sound deeper… orgoreallyfastandsoundsuperpitchedup. My body got heavier when things were slow, and lighter when time went fast. I ate a burnt chocolate chip cookie. Nightmare nightmare nightmare. Then we fucked for like an hour and that was GREAT. We felt better after that. Never again, but also WAY FUCKING COOL experience. I was, at the time, moderately experienced with paychs (acid, mushies, 2cs, 4-aco)

          Yep, opiates do indeed be the slipperiest slope. Making me miss the good ol’ days 😂😂

          While I didn’t branch out much w psychs, I was an acid head for a good while and 5-MeO-DMT was the one I tried hardest to source. Wish I had gotten a chance now!

            It’s still around on the darknet! I happened into mine, a friend was like “wanna just have five of these? It’s insane and you’ll wanna fuck” and I’m like “PLEASE”

            I got very lucky. To receive it. I ate a cap with my partner, and gave the other three away.

        Mephedrone started out so innocuously. “It’s like X but with no comedown! And you can redose! But you’ll smell like cat piss.” I try it, maybe 15ish years ago.

        Then a few months later, doing it every other weekend, I’m sitting with some friends and we have a giant pile on a table. The stuff is basically free, anyway. We’re all taking turns schnerting lines. My nostril starts bleeding, and clogs. I use the other one. It also starts bleeding and clogs. I can’t breathe through my nose anymore. Everyone else is still railing, and ALL I CAN THINK OF for the rest of the night is

        “How can I snort more of that”

        I hadn’t plugged anything yet, or I would have found a way to covertly do that.

        That was the last night I touched mephedrone. I vowed never to have that feeling again.

        Read my other response, absolutely wild! I felt so weird and bad, both sound and time distorted and my body felt weight when it happened. It was NUTS! I don’t regret trying it, but I’m never doing it again hahaha

    Alcohol, Nicotine, Caffeine, Cannabis, LSD, Ketamine, MDMA, 2C-B, 4-MMC, Kratom, Psilocybin, Muscimol, Cocaine, ODSMT (tramadol), Amphetamine.

    Alcohol I consider the most dangerous and destructive of all. It is very hard on my body and tolerance as well as dependence build up quickly and often noticed too late due to social acceptance.

    MDMA is great taken responsibly with loved ones. My wife and I enjoy it every few months for a “free parents weekend”. It really helps opening up emotionally and makes physical touch even more enjoyable.

    My almost daily vice is weed. I use it to manage stress and unwind after work. It works best when I do it together with exercise. The workout high is my personal favourite.

    Shrooms are also great. They are easy to grow and very pleasant to me. After I’ve done a high dose (6g) I can do 2-3g as a chill daytime dose that mellows me out. It’s especially great for playtime with children - brings me kind of to the same mental level without losing my mental capacity.

        I’ve done it once. Found a bag (we knew who from, never saw them again) of high quality. Kept it in collection for a while. Partner and I were joking about trying it, and how we’d do it. We joked “haha in our butts obv”

        So we put it in our butts. It was pretty good. I prefer adderall.

    My psychiatrist asked me that once during an ADHD diagnosis, listing several examples of some common ones, and I said “all those” unflinchingly because I was super restless and anxious during the diagnosis appointment which was also during work and he jolted and pulled out a little cartoonish handkerchief to wipe his brow it was like an old timey book

    Nicotine, caffeine, alcohol, methylphenidate.

    Nicotine once. Friends at the time said I needed to try it to say for a fact I didn’t like it, and I didn’t like it. Then I learnt there are extremely rare cases of illnesses from just one smoke, so that advice was stupid, IMO.

    Caffeine was a regular as I was self-medicating with it. Nowadays, I drink mostly decaffeinated. I wish there were more flavors and variety for it, though, at least a chocolate one…

    Alcohol has always been an occasional thing for me, once or twice per year. I try to keep it that way because my family has a long history of substance abuse disorder.

    Methylphenidate once. I borrowed it from someone’s prescription. I thought it would help me get energetic, euphoric, etc. Well, it was calming, and for the first time in my life my mind was quiet. It was so strange to be sitting with no turmoil, no direction of what to jump to do or even say spontaneously. It was just me and the silent room. Tranquility, so much that it was uncomfortable as it was new and not what I expected at all. Turns out I have hyperactivity and the medication turned it down.

    If I were to say, I prefer uppers and I’m curious about substances like cocaine, but I don’t want to risk my health. I’m fine.

      One of my local tea shops sells tea w/ basically these tiny hershey kisses mixed in. Honestly I tried it (Ex: Chocolate Drizzle) and it wasn’t for me, but if you really want that chocolate flavour it seems you can just straight up just add chocolate or sweetened cocoa powder to your tea. You may need to experiment to get the ratios the way you like it

    Weed, alcohol, nicotine, mushrooms, ecstasy/molly (the pills have been cut with heroin, coke, meth, mescaline), LSD, Salvia, opium, Percocet, and my kid’s cuddles (I swear to god, that counts, and it’s probably the most intoxicating). I’ve also done some random ass herbs I bought online that were supposed to have an effect, but never did. Questions welcome lol. I will also add, everything but the first 3 were about a decade before I had my kiddos, so no worries there.
