Can a person smoke pot and stay away from Meth?

[jaiddragon]

worlds supposed to end in 2012 or something it was all the rage last year lol

in my younger days i did a lot of coke, acid, shrooms, microdots, smoked some crack, and snorted meth ONCE...that shit fucked me up for 3 days, ended up in a bathroom of some people i didnt know doing an 8 ball with a friend that some guy who just robbed the crack man gave us...after that i realized that drugs are the devil and weed is the best thing on earth....not tomention that ive never feared for my life hanging out with potheads lol...

the only way that i can concieve of it being a 'gateway' is that they hype it so much as being so terrible, (i mean do you ever see a public service announcment that says hey dont shoot herion? but they show some potheads taking off at 60mph from a drivethru and creaming a little girl on a bike...and by the way whats a little kid doing riding a bike alone in front of a busy fast food restuarant?) that when people finally do try it for themselves theyre like hey this isnt ANYTHING like they said it was, maybe crack isnt so bad either...

was just rereading this thread and realized i forgot to finish my first paragraphs point as i so often do...

the point was i did all those drugs because i wanted to, there was a little of the naivete of pots not so bad maybe the other stuff isnt either, but it was really just a lack of caring about consequences, either healthwise or legal, some hardcore shit was going down and i just wanted to escape and not give a fuck....

I tend to do nic in the order of 10 grams a day. Less when I've got my medicine though. Fuckin' shit does nothin' for me either.


Funny when people say 'meth'. My first thought is a alky in a park drinking metho and orange juice...

Yeah, I've never seen the repercussions first hand but i have seen people on TV like intervention on meth it can cause some SERIOUS health problems. It leaves you wanting more and more so you get and scrounge for every dollar selling everything just to get enough money for your fix, it's quite sad.

I've yet to see an episode of 'Intervention' that focuses on someone who just smokes pot. A couple of episodes have had people smoking weed, but in conjunction with other more serious things. One ep I remember had a disabled guy coating a blunt wrap in Tussinex because smoking the hydrocodone fucked you up more.

I don't think the series producers think extreme potheads are all that bad. XD

I fuckin loved it, i even said to my self " this is what i will do everyday for the rest of my life".

but then i got tired of that life and chose to stop , so i started smoking pot more ( i had stopped daily smoking since my highschool dayz)

blunt afer blunt i began to hate tweak, tweakers, and especialy the shadow-people

For some people, yep, absolutely. This is part of the reason why I've stayed away from these threads. Ever seen speed bumps firsthand, close-up? Or the teeth?

And what it does to the personality... <shudder>

Bro Meth is different

when you say meth is different do you mean that just because you use or have used doesn't mean you're hooked?

 

[nomoretrouble]

Just to throw my two bits into the gateway drug thing; all weed leads to for me is lemonade junk food and cat naps. I love life.

 

[stickydankherb]

nomoretrouble,

1. very well said
2. DAMN your avatar. Now all I can think about is getting some waffles. They look so delicious in your picture. I want some immediately but it is late and I cannot move so I will suffer without waffles and your avatar just keeps glaring at me, reminding me about the sweeet, delicious, golden waffles.


P.S.
The syrup reminds me of beer

 

[CanadianCoyote]

Yeah, nomoretrouble, now all I can think about is waffles and how I don't have any.

Waffles and beer sounds like a good time. XD

I just wanted to say some good words to all you folks who've managed to wean off Meth. I have (had) quite a few friends who went down the chemical path and never returned. As you said SeaMaiden *shudder*. It's a frustrating thing to see happening and to know you can't do anything about it.
It's one of the things that convinced me years ago to avoid chems and stop tripping and doing shrooms (besides the extreme mushroom sickness and paranoia and the fact that I was always asking anyone I scored weed from if they could get trips).

You folks who have used cannabis to get off and stay off meth and other chem drugs should be commended and should be recognized and be allowed to have a say in the whole cannabis reform process.
