binging?

[waterhurley]

well last night i killed $100 of yak tonight im hopefully grabbin an 8-ball. its my bday so i like to have fun but im just trying to not let this be a habbit.

i cant bealieve i killed $100 of yay. i think they were 1 gram bags for 50 a piece and i got 2. i cant sleep obviously sinve ime so wired. kinda wait for the crash so i can smoke and pass out . that or ill pop a klonopin (was takin them earlier) i get a script of those about once a month and there gone in 3 days.

seems to me like im binging on my non-weed drugs? and i mean as long asa i stay in control doesy anyone else see anything worng wit it?

its not like i crave coke or pills, but when they are around i do gaba em. i dunno i grew up with straight edge friends whod kill me if they found out i pop pills or do some yak.

i guess im just starting to question if i have a probelm, or im just having fun like most people at age 20-21.

i mean i really like coke but i know ill get hooked if im not careful. however im grabbin an 8 ball tmrw for my bday. i know it will be gone fri night between me and MAYBE 1 oter person but i doubt it. but i dont crave it and i feel i ahve contorl over it.

i just killed like almost 2 grams and im watching the sun rise. i love it but at the ssame time i question it all


what GC/s opinion?

Meh I would'nt worry about it too much man. Everyone binges once in a while. I hadnt touched yay in almost a year, then about 3 months ago I did blow for 3 or 4 weekends in a row. Then I just put it down and havent touched it since Febuary.

[LiquidBlue22]

ehh idk man, 100$ in one night? that seems like a lot. i literally just finished a 75$ half 8th of some greaaat blow, and i feel like shit now and it took me a while to do that shit. plus im pretty darn experienced.

share your 8ball with someone else IMO because thats so much man, haha wow i love this shit

[Smokentoke420]

Come back when you down a quarter oz of quality blow in the same ammount of time. Haha.

2 grams in a night is NOT a lot, it IS expensive though. Why do you think I'm a tweaker and not a coke addict?

[thedon420]

personality I refuse to allow myself to binge on anything
that's where almost all the negatives of drugs come out
but it's your body,
for anyone else just don't binge on meth, or you put yourself at risk for serious brain damage, and a dopamine inbalence

Coke and binging is synonymous. Can't really have one without the other, unless you've got more self control than anyone I've ever met.

Small binges aren't going to kill you if you keep it to a minimum. Personally I only do coke once or twice a month nowadays. Never more.

No one can tell you what's right for you. Don't listen to anyone saying "Oh x amount is nothing, I can do 3 times that much." Everyone's bodies, tolerances and lives are much different. If you're 5'2 and 85 pounds, 2 G's is going to be much different for you than for some 300 pound guy on the internet trying to tell you how much coke to do.

The bottom line is that if you're questioning it, that means that you at least recognize the potential for things to get out of hand very easily. You have to ask yourself whether a few nights of being geeked out are worth taking that risk.

"Feeling" like you're not addicted isn't much of an indication. One of the biggest parts of addiction is the brain's rationalizations as to why it's always okay to do "just a little bit" more. Some of the smartest people I know have fucked their whole lives up because of blow and none of them ever thought that they were going to become addicted, trust me.

[eyeg0tgr33ns]

yeah, 2g's in a night isn't much. i blasted through some lines last night, but it was bunk coke so it did next to nothing for me.

Everyone goes on a binge with coke. It's just that with the cola, those binges can easily turn into something terrible.

Aaaaand Im picking up 2 grams tomorrow of that white girl. =)

I don't you would have to worry about addiction. Coke is like a mental addiction where you just need it to have fun. If you have the willpower you will be fine. Its not like opiates where you get sick as shit during withdrawal. You need opiates to function when your hooked on them. Coke just makes you jones hardcore for it, kind of like when you're on a diet and really want McDonald's.

coke is fun but such a waste of money, 100$ of weed can last about a week 100$ of blow won't last more then couple hours

That's a really dangerous line of thought.

Psychological addiction can be incredibly powerful. I hope that one day you realize that before it happens to you and slaps you in the face.

Holy shit, where do you live?

I haven't done much traveling, but I always thought that people complaining about $80 grams and whatnot were just exaggerating.

$40 is the standard here for mid-grade blow, although the absolute best coke I've ever seen/done was somehow $90/ball. It was right off a key. Nearly got killed getting it though (since I don't speak Spanish) so I guess the almost dying sorta balanced out the price.
