@ che, it's when I was doing drugs (coke, meth) 23 years ago. He was an Ironworker for about 35 years and then went into the inspection business and also a bodybuilder who won a ton of masters shows including the AAU Mr. America. I knew him for years before that and he was a crazy mother fucker when he was an ironworker. Quick story, he fell about 150ft was in serious condition but as he was recovering he got kicked out the hospital for doing meth. Long story short, later on he helped lead me out of drugs a place to live and into an NA program. Because of him, it's where I am now. Flame on. And yes, i do have a hard time believing you like me. Haha.

Props to you, but anyways.

I have smoked a few joints in my life (no wonder when you think of the proximity to the netherlands), but i sometimes feel i am a clear minority on this board, you guys all seem to have experience with crack, cocaine, meth or if that is not it, anti-depressants and other medicine abuse.  :o :o

I never understood how anyone would choose not to be in complete control of their mind.  I also never understood how anyone could ravage their body with drugs.  The physical toll alone should be enough to stop anyone from ever wanting to do any of it.

Same here, that's why i never liked alcohol and never bothered with anything harder than marihuana.

I didn't even like that, although i would like to be able to switch it on and off like i want. I actually can only recall one time i really enjoyed being high, that was when i put about half a gram of hashish in my coffee in Amsterdam. I was with some good friends there and i really had a mild, good trip.

But besides that, everytime i tried marihuana, it got boring very quick, just outright sucked or it was too intense and too long for my likes.

i actually agree with you. doesn;t make sense to me that someone just decide one day to shoot herion or smoke crack. do they think, Oh i won't get addicted. come one.

Nah.  I've got more respect for you than that, young man. 

For Bay?  No fucking way. Man-Whore monger that he is... Fuck his noise.  And yes, I've seen a picture and am well aware that he's a lot bigger than I, but that's pretty much true of most of the people over the age of 10 on this planet.  ;D

What he doesn't have is class.  Thus endeth the lesson for today.  I have an appointment to make.  Later, kid. ;D

Probable that a large part of that experience was placebo. THC is way less soluble in water than fat/oils ,, did you let it sit for a while? Any cream?

Oh i melted it in butter on a spoon, i am not stupid.  ;D ;D ;D


And i doubt it was placebo, i was VERY high for the whole afternoon and evening and still drowsy and light headed when i got up the next day. It was much to much though.

Ok in that case forget I said anything ;D, eating/drinking cannabis generally produces a longer high so sounds like a good time  :D

Thanks, but I was fortunate. I never really hit rock bottom, I wanted to pull my self out and luckily I had someone there to help and was never bad enough to have to go to a rehab center.
