I've done some witchcraft with a LOT of professional wiccans (with whom I'm friends)

[teh b0lly!!1]

did he do magic tricks to your butt in the showers?

hey rbg in your time in israel how much were you exposed to israeli music?
any favorites? no reason at all for asking, just curious

[redbreegull]

I like Geva Alon a lot. I was surprised to find out how big the indie/folk thing is in Israel. I guess nerdy white Jews all have some similarities worldwide. I was exposed to a lot of stuff via my friends but was generally too immersed in my experiences to stop and think for more than 10 seconds about anything let alone write something down.

life can be so difficult.

Don't do any of it but if you do don't do a fat line, you could kill yourself. it's probably some kind of cathinone (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathinone) but could be literally anything so don't be stupid and snort a random powder

[redbreegull]

unless you've always been curious as to the flavor of the flesh on your buddy's face, don't touch that shit

did you guys ever drink cough syrup when you were really desperate?

Man. Those were some bad times. There was a pot drought.

[vixnix]

We drank the cough syrup, then drank absinthe over the top, and then did nitrous oxide bulbs out of balloons. We were so desperate just to forget. Just for a moment. #countryliving

in high school some of my friends were robotripping in a park in the city and they totally lost it. this guy alex freaked out and called his crazy russian mother sobbing that they drank all this cough syrup and he needed her to come rescue them. she showed up and screamed at them in russian, threw shit at them, and then decided she wanted them to be arrested. that was enough to convince me to not drink robitussin to get high

my bad influence cousin from Texas convinced me to huff aerosol from a spray paint can when we were 15 though. fortunately he went first and just sprayed his face and the inside of his mouth with white paint. we stole liquor from my grandparents instead

[vixnix]

Oh good grief. Robotripping ha.

The second time, I drank a whole bottle on an empty stomach, and passed out on the road outside my friend's house. He came outside, also tripping, and found me collapsed on the footpath. Rolled me into the recovery position, and I started spewing bright red robotussin, which he thought was blood, so he called emergency services. I woke up in the ambulance. Good times.

I hated taking cough syrup as a kid. It tastes awful. That was enough to ensure I'd never abuse it.

[Run To Me]

Tripped it hard only once, didn't really do shit for me apart from feeling really, really dumb and hot and disoriented. Apparently I was supposed to hallucinate and shit, but no

That said, I like a low dose of dextromethorphan on top of a good weed hi...say like an extra large swig or two from the bottle, it seems to add a little swirl of something

[reprise85]

I tried some robo before (pro tip: get the gel caps), but I was always 1) worried about tripping too hard instead of just getting the mild effects and 2) serotonin syndrome. I never wanted to trip per se, but the first two plateaus are more alcohol-like from my experience. I mean I prob did it 5 times and it was enough, though. Shitty high and too much to be worried about, esp. while on other serotonergic drugs (antidepressants)

Another OTC is benzedrex, you have to either eat the cotton in it or find a way to get most of it out of the cotton (there's many methods). Gets you nicely stimulated, if that's your thing. I mean it feels dirty as fuck but when I was desperate I'd do that instead of DXM any day.

[ilikeplanets]

Dxm is the only drug I like to be alone to do...makes me quiet. I don't like drinking cough syrup anymore though because it burns my stomach

[ilikeplanets]

I believe I get the wanderlust on dxm though...foggy memories of hills and a graveyard

[MyOneAndOnly]

Thinking about asking my ortho for Opana

Cause why the fuck not

[MyOneAndOnly]

It's amazing how easy it is to get opiates if you fuck your self up

[FoolofaTook]

dxm huh. i am ashamed to say i've done a shit-ton. i dont know why. depressed or something. it can be pretty awesome if you take enough/make it that far. but what a rough drug.

my brother has been in and out of mental hospitals, abusing that shit. i think he is going to die soon.
he is 23.

[FoolofaTook]

also i was joking about the bath salts/dust off. i have matured drug wise, and stick to alcohol and weed, having had my glorious heyday of halcyonic dxming.

i'm sorry to hear that man. didn't you go down that road as well for a while? i know you took a lot of dxm but maybe he is taking legendary quantities? hopefully he'll survive :/

I'm not surprised. That shit fucked me up for days and days and after those two experiences I never wanted to touch the stuff again. It totally fucked up my perception of time. I think it might still be fucked up. Man I just gagged and shuddered, thinking about it. Sorry to hear about your brother If it's any consolation, my kid bro has been in and out of hospital, and a drug addict for years, since he was in his mid-teens basically, and he's now 33. And still going strong, physically. Well, from what I hear. He lives here in Sydney but we're estranged, after he came down off ice and beat up his baby mama a few too many times and I decided blood or not, if you behave like a mannerless, trashy piece of shit and beat up a woman who is currently breastfeeding your 6 month old daughter and leave her covered in bruises, and she leaves you and finally calls the cops to save her own life and the life of her daughter, you can just go ahead and fuck right off, out of my life.

My parents paid for him to go to rehab and he got kicked out for fucking another girl. Idiot.

[reprise85]

man people are shit.

[slunken]

so are woman people

[reprise85]

how dare you

In my defence I will say that I tried my best to offer help and support. Even when she had him charged I went with him to the lawyer. It wasn't until I heard him manipulating what the lawyer had told us, to try and bully her into amending her affidavit, that I realised what a dark, nasty person he had become. And at that point I had more in common with her, than with him, and far more sympathy for her and my niece, than I did for him. I told him I would rather see him go to jail for what he did and accept responsibility for his actions, than watch him act immorally just to save his own skin. And he told me I was a shit sister and to never contact him or his ex ever again. So I walked away and we've been estranged ever since.

His ex thankfully reached out to me and we have become friends, and I get to be a part of my niece's life. While I was organising playgroups at my old job, she and my niece used to attend every week. My niece has the best life ever. She is such an amazing mum.

I have no idea what my brother is doing.

[redbreegull]

That can't have been easy but it sounds like you did the right thing by dropping him out of your life IMO. Family is important but not always best defined by blood.
