Life is so boring! Should I try... a drug?

Question

I'm kind of a straight-edge person and am finding life boring these days. I'll be 38 three days from now, and everything bores me! A decade ago, a record producer friend of mine introduced me to crystal methamphetamine. It was wonderful - but because I'm not into drugs, I stopped using it. Lately I find myself fantasizing about meth the way people think about a great old boyfriend. I was on top of the world on that stuff, skinnier, always in a good mood, and so interested in life and in men! Now I'm very spiritual... and the taste has gone out of my whole world.

I want to be a bad girl again. Life has become too boring and stable. Lots of guys like me, but none I could fall in love with. The truly great men seem to fall in love with women who have serious problems -- like drugs, extra children, alcoholism...

Am I being too straight-edge? I'm really missing speed... I drew some good-looking guys and fun times back then... so should I hunt down some more meth...?

Answer 1

Crystal meth effects, both physiological and psychological, have the potential for great mental and physical harm. Physical crystal meth effects include blurred vision, extended wakefulness, heart palpitations and damage to the brain, lungs and liver. Other crystal meth effects include impaired vision, judgment, coordination and reflexes, hallucinations, depression and psychoses.

Overdosing is another of the many effects of crystal meth. Fever, convulsions and coma are signs of a crystal meth overdose, and death can result from burst blood vessels in the brain or heart failure.

Psychological crystal meth effects are just as unpleasant as the physical effects. Anxiety, radical behavioral shifts, anger, emotional swings and paranoia are the most common crystal meth effects chronic users experience. These psychological symptoms can increase over time and continued use and can evolve into paranoid delusions and hallucinations, violence and self-destructive behavior.

Crystal meth can be difficult to overcome. Attempts to stop using crystal meth often fail simply because the resulting depression can be overwhelming, causing the addict to use more crystal meth in an attempt to overcome his or her depression.

Truly great men don't fall for women with serious problems. Guys who fall for women how have issues because they have many issue themself so it doesn't make them feel so bad.

Drug addiction is not a game. There's only 2 outcomes: you die or you go to jail.

Did I mention tweekers lose their teeth, hair, get speed bumps all over their, and smell God awful?

Same thing happened to me over the summer...every weekend. Last time I took mdma I got way too carried away and high.. I don't really remember much but I was trippin and apparently I nearly got my purse stolen and the guy that way gonna mug me stabbed a guy up the road..I mean, that could happen to anyone but the thing is my vision was blacking out every 2 seconds (apparently my eyes were rolling at the back of my head) and I wasn't aware wtf was going on I was just bare vulnerable. I haven't taken any drugs since.. not saying I won't ever again, drugs are awesome, but I felt like I needed a detox for a few months to sort my life out lol as they say 'too much of anything is never good'.. Drugs are great but idk maybe you should find, like, an ambition or something to distract your mind, get into reading.. or making short films or something, that's what I've been doing ? I mean.. meanwhile I smoke weed cus I don't really think it effect my life yet I'm not sober either. Hope this helps in some way buddy..

Are you serious? How is it, a person gets bored, so they turn to drugs? Have you ever heard of hobbies? Just to get you up to date on crystal meth, it's an ILLEGAL DRUG! It's a stimulant that acts on the central nervous system, which increases the speed of your heart and blood pressure. You risk serious effects on your heart, you get an increased risk of a heart attack, possible stroke and even sudden death. Other effects are tremors, sweating, heart palpitations or anxiety. Then when the effects wear off you will discover the effects of depression and exhaustion. With a prolonged usage of crystal meth you will suffer serious problems with mental illness along with paranoia, delusions, hallucinations and violent behavior. And yes, as you mentioned crystal meth makes you loose a significant amount of weight, but it makes you look sickly gaunt looking, which isn't healthy. You won't be a bad girl, you will be a sick girl, and if caught, a jail bird girl. The law does not stand for drug users. And you want to fall in love with a guy? While on drugs? Yeah right, you're not gonna find someone to fall in love if you're a drug user. No man wants a user. No man wants someone with their teeth rotted and falling out. Great men DO NOT fall in love with alcoholics or drug users.....where did you come out of, the psycho ward? Please, follow your spiritual life, it's more suitable for you. I don't think I even buy into the whole spiritual thing, because NO spiritual person would want this lifestyle. The straight and narrow is the best road to take.

Every one of those illegal drugs does one thing or another to lift the mood of their users. Cocaine gives energy, like crystal meth does. Marijuana gives a laid-back relaxed feeling where everything is groovy and food tastes better - or anyway the good stuff does. Each of those "recreational" drugs has a reason for appealing to the people who use it.

But each of them carries a price in terms of physical or mental health or how your behavior changes in the long run. Smoking marijuana puts even more junk in your lungs than tobacco does, for example. Cocaine gets you addicted almost at once, and then your supplier usually starts jacking up the price and you are forced by the addiction to do whatever he wants, even if it's bad or illegal.

Crystal meth is the only illegal drug that White people abuse more than Blacks do, on a per capita basis. The only one. If you're White, there's probably a genetic reason why this particular drug has an attraction for you.

Getting yourself into the drug scene is like picking up an extra necessity for living, like eating food and drinking water and sleeping every once in a while. You don't want to make a habit of picking up more needs. Sooner or later, they'd tie you up somehow.

Answer 6

I too was on speed and related drugs. Had to cut it out due to health, family, and employment issue. Still, at time, I do miss the action. Also, I was hang around the wrong crowd. This meant I packed heat or other devices to such ends.
Don`t go back on the Meth for kicks. Don`t look for bad boys. They both end up abusing you. I think you need something to burn off the energy and boredom. Find it, but be good to yourself. No one else will except the ones who truly love you as you are.

Answer 7

My, such a touch decision. Ok, I made it. Go back to work, to school, volunteer, run for office, help a kid get started in life. You are self centered and shallow and that is why you are bored. And you know it. All drugs destroy incentive to do anything beyond the jiggy stuff with a bunch of losers. You are 38 and if you don't know how to get on with a meaningful life then you will be smoking, shooting or snorting something and that is it. Good luck.

HELL to the NO! If you want a thrill find a sport that can make your heart race and sharpen your hand eye coordination. Putting unneccessary drama in your life, so some guy can feel like a hero by making you straight again. Girl, use that energy of yours and explore what the world has to offer. Besides, you can always send me the money that you were going to use for drugs. I can invested it in the stock market. ;-)

Answer 9

sounds like some long-term after effects... crystal meth or tweak does that to your head... even a few times.. it does feel pretty good and dreamy or whatever but then it makes your brain think that nothing else is more fun anymore... and that's a lie so if u fall for it then it has got to u even after 10 years... don't be fooled... if u r really that bored just drink don't do tweak it's too damaging especially at your age...

Answer 10

Ever think about a hobby or a pet? A truly great guy who falls in love with a woman who has such serious problems as drugs, alcoholism, and too many kids by too many daddies...is he REALLY a great guy? I think you should talk to someone who can help you...a professional! Don't do it, it's not worth it. Good luck to you.
