Discussion Anyone else use drugs to get by?

[FailedWoman]

My drugs of choice are depressants. I pretty much love anything that's sedating.
I've recently discovered kratom. I initially planned to use it for pain management, but I found out it's pretty good at numbing mental pain as well.
So I pretty much ended up binging on the stuff for the past week. Whoops.

I'm also a big fan of empathogens and hallucinogens, but not for regular use.
What's your drug of choice?

Whew! Sounds like you've got quite the tolerance.

That reminds me actually. A while back I took a couple grams of etizolam after drinking half a bottle of vodka and I ended passing out for 14 hours or so. I can barely remember anything, but it felt really nice and peaceful to drift off into sleep like that. And I've never woken up feeling so refreshed in my life.

I smoked a loooot of weed when I had access to it. I like benzos a little too much, and absolutely love hallucinogens. All of my drug connections were lost when my last s/o died though, so these days I just smoke cigarettes a lot. At least they make me feel like I'm dying.

I wish I did. I tried weed, but all I could do was sit on the couch and shake. It didn't even give any pleasant sensations.
I was on antidepressants for a bit (if that counts?) but they made me sick too, so I just up and quit and never went back to see if they'd prescribe me something else.
My family has a history of drug abuse and alcoholism. Most recently, my older brother is on meth and my mom is constantly drunk. My family members aren't people I particularly enjoy (even when they're sober), so I spend a lot of time trying to not be like them at all.
Despite that, I've been drunk a few times this past year and I LOVE the feeling. Most of the time, it's like pure relief from being myself. I adore it. I feel like the person I wish I was. Occasionally though my mood will swing downward and I will sob like a baby. The last time I was drunk was my 21st birthday party. After I was good and plastered, I broke down and screamed begging for people to help me hang myself. I nearly went back to the hospital. It was. Wild.

Yes weed except not right now because I'm at my girlfriends and she won't allow it. I just have to go without sleep

I used to smoke weed almost every day for little over 15 years. Eventually it ended up making me terribly anxious and I'm unable to enjoy it anymore at all.
Drugs are nice when they work but when they don't it's terrible. I feel like eventually it all ends up worse then when I started.
Like I get really anxious when coming down from kratom, and I just failed administering my shot because of it for the first time in over half a year and I want to cry. I feel so fucking stupid, it's making me really pissed and I want to hurt and kill myself.
Right now I'm wondering what I should do. Alcohol, benzos or kratom to calm down and try again, or just give up...

Also fifteen years. That's how long ago it stopped agreeing with me and how long I've carried on regardless. Fifteen years of regret and the only comfort is the thing that contributed to it

 

[FailedWoman]

I really hope I don't have to go on for another 15 years like this.

 

[DarkDane]

Drugs and subtance abuse will just make it worse in the end, i also had two grandparents that were alcoholics, so I guess im a bit biased, but in general it just creates more problems than it solves. The effects goes off eventually and then you feel ten times worse.

 

[FailedWoman]

It's true. Which is exactly why I'm going to take SN before I completely succumb to addiction.

 

[nirvana133]

I take so much kratom and drink a lot. Every now and then i take mescaline but thats about it. Watch out for the kratom tolerance bro.

 

[justanotherday]

gabapentin

 

[Daniela]

I take Tylenol by the mouthful to deal with emotional suffering, particularly heartbreak

Not recommended; it's bad for your liver

 

[Sweet emotion]

I zonk myself out sometimes when Im so miserable that j can't stand lying in my bed and staring at the wall or watching TV. How much tv can a person watch?
