Have you ever had a drug problem?

This isn't for judging.. I'm just looking to share experiences. So I'll go ahead.

I started trying drugs at a very early age. I was 11 & I grew up in environments that deprived me of most of my childhood.
It started with weed. Then I tried liquor shortly after. By the time I was 12 I was already starting to try different pills to see how it all felt.

So most of my usage was all weed, alcohol, & pills until I got older. After high school I was kicked out of my house & I spent time on the streets. I was homeless for a time period, which coincideded with the same time SW first opened up. I was here & I posted regularly but I never fully opened up about what I was going through. At that time I wasn't addicted to hard drugs, but I did them often.

Actually I was never truly addicted to the hard stuff. I just didn't care & I did whatever. I had a very apathetic mindset. I didn't care about anything & the way I saw life was "f*ck it, if I die then at least I don't have to be here anymore".
I think that the reason I did all those drugs was because part of me hoped it would be the reason I didn't wake up one day.

It's crazy to admit that even now because I was always such a funny person & always joking around. I still am.

The night I stopped was because I realized all that & when it all hit me I felt like absolute shit. But I knew I was lucky because I shouldn't even still be alive.
The night before, I drank the entire day, smoked nonstop, drank half a bottle of codeine, fought somebody, ran from the cops, ended up at a crack house where I proceeded to pop 3 Xanax, then I crushed 3 more Xanax & snorted all of it.
Didn't stop there though. I followed that up with 3 lines of coke, 2 bumps of meth, then last.. we smoked heroin (which shockingly was the only thing I'd never done until then).
All while I still smoked weed & drank throughout all of that 馃し

The way I felt the next day was the sickest I'd ever felt in my life & I kept asking myself "why tf am I still even here?" It was my sister's birthday & she's the most important person in my life.
I didn't even tell her happy birthday but I could waste the whole day getting f**ked up...
I hated how far I'd gone at that point.

Idk. It's not much of a quitting story but I never went back after that.
I simply got sick of feeling that way.
I joke about drugs or whatever on here sometimes but believe me it all comes from experience. I'm clean now
Although I do smoke weed all the time still 馃檶馃槀

& I don't drink like I used to either, despite my name 馃槄 but I definitely still drink lol. But hey that's me I guess 馃し

I've done all the drugs homie. I started smoking weed when I was 16-17 and drinking too. When I graduated high school that's when the real shit started. I did coke and molly like every weekend when I was 19. I did Xanax too. But my main addiction was the pain killers. Oxycodone, Opanas. Fentanyl. But mainly Opanas. That was like legal heroin in pill form. Bruh I used to love them shits. I was a pill head for sure. I remember snorting a 40mg Opana and being knocked out for like 6 hours straight and waking up in my couch still fucked up, driving to work and nodding off and then just busting my ass the whole night. Coming home and getting high again. That was like 2-3 years ago though and I did a lot more other shit before that but yeah I used to drink and drive a lot and I got DUIs then I went to jail that was like around 2014 when I got my first DUI and I got another one in 2018 but didn't get sentenced for it till 2019 went to jail in September 2019 and got out in March 2020 when covid started. So it's been a ride but I've been clean from all drugs except the drinking but I don't drink and drive anymore cuz I learned my lesson I'm not going back to jail again hell nah fuck that shit. I OD a couple times too when I was doing fentanyl but yeah like I said I don't do that shit no more because it's not good for me.

@MURD3RM0NK3Y that's wild man but I feel you. I first tried coke on my 18th birthday & kinda just kept goin onto other shit after that. Before that it was all pills, & the basic stuff. I definitely had a lot of experience drinking & driving & of course other shit. Oddly enough, that's how I learned how to drive as a teen. Nobody would teach me & I wanted to learn so I stole cars with my friends & would drive them while we drank & smoked. Normally driving made me nervous but once I drank I was confident. Kinda fucked up but yeah that's how I learned. I don't like talking about my legal issues but I've been caught up a few times on the same shit. It sucks.
Its dope you started getting off the shits though man honestly most of it gets less fun the longer you stay away.
