I never really did a lot of drugs besides smoking pot a few times but I tried crack once at a party in college and I felt pretty ashamed of myself immediately after despite high. I didn’t try it again and am actually a sober adult now, not because I had a drug problem but I just grew out of wanting to try them and never liked to drink alcohol.
I never met anyone else who would ever admit to trying it though or even cocaine despite statistically knowing many people have haha. Any crack smokers on lemmy?
I have an addictive personality with little impulse control (e.g. caffeine, sugar, TV, games).
I don’t do things in moderation. I know that smoking would kill me if I started, and as a dopamine chaser, I know that any drug that immediately makes me feel good will be a crutch that I will use for the rest of my life.
No thank you sir.
This is why the one time I was around meth I asked the other party (someone I was sleeping with casually) to not let me have any if I asked to try it. I’d be on the street for sure. I didn’t ask, so I don’t know if she’d have kept her end. Either way, I’m glad I didn’t get tempted.
However, I’ll do a mountain of coke so long as I don’t have a phone number to ask for more.
I have tremendous respect for people who are aware of their own weaknesses, able to admit them, and maintain boundaries for themselves. Congratulations!
