How long is a piece of string??
Rolling Sly said:Footscrazy did you ever feel like this during your meth years if you dont mind me asking? The fear of what will fill the gap? And now that your off it is your itch scratched with downers?
I think the answer lies within you. Not just a casual thought but FUCKING HONEST TO FUCKING SHIT answer to yourself.
Are drugs good for my life right now? Am I missing out on things? Is other important stuff suffering because of my use? Could I be doing better without drugs in my life? And any other questions you ask yourself.
And I mean, this is the real important part, BE REALLY FUCKING HONEST with yourself. And then you will know when it is time to stop.
but in response to your question - yes, I would quit altogether if I was pregnant.
As a 53 year old professional with grown-up kids and all my faculties I'd say I don't plan on giving up recreational substances any time soon. I'll keep growing my own weed, scoping out cid and molly when it comes by and visiting the mushie patch every year until I decide to stop, not because I'm pressured to do so. I'm not out to thumb my nose at society despite the dreadful anti-drug messages non-partakers are sucked in to believing. I work in a position of responsibility and influence right under their noses and have done so all my adult life without incident. They'd have a cow if they only knew I DON'T go to work bent or wasted. I manage my drug intake without it impairing my productivity and enjoy 'taking a trip without leaving the farm', as it were. I don't take drugs as a vehicle for spiritual insights; more simply I just love the buzz and don't see that its anyone else's business what I do at home.
I can't go a day without using something. Really, I'm not happy to go a day without getting wasted, but often I have to. It sucks, I know this isn't usual, but I guess I can't see why - why do people choose to spend their days straight while they could be gloriously high? My brain is obviously fucked :D (<- Sad smiley acceptance of patheticness right there)
You sound so similar to me... +1
Its a shame that drug use is essentially underground. I would love to be able to share my secret to juggling life, family, job, kids, money and drugs.
I am now 38 and using more now than ever, and I am really at a stage in my life I need to look hard at my use. Actually I am more worried about the cost than the effects of my use.
