Crack cocaine like time was preaching but I was chill no worries til it made others worry about me and I worried about them finding it so I had to worry about not being seen till I isolated then I worried I'd never stop cause it payed my worries but it wasn't worth the other worries

Mine was opiates, primarily oxys/opanas and started to turn into heroin. It made me feel invincible, I could do anything when I was on it. Then eventually I couldn't do anything without it. I don't miss it at all, sober 5+ years now.

i was doing the same kinds of things when i was your age. I graduated to heroin and cocaine a few years later, big mistake. Ages 12-17 were the worst of my life, 17-29 when i was using hard drugs weren't great either, but being a teenager is fucking rough. My heart is with you ❤️

I'm sorry you're so young and already using. Dude, Benadryl was the worst thing I've ever done! Hopefully things get better for you!

Fentanyl. It makes me feel nothing - which is a massive relief compared to all the stress and pain I f eel normally. But now I'm not longer used to all that pain and I don't know if I can ever stop.

Anything that I could get my hands on because it made me far away from myself and my life. I thought it made me happy but that’s not happiness it’s was just ugly

Alcohol, meth and fentanyl we're the main ones. Abt 3-4 yrs clean off fent & a couple months from the others. It's still rough.

Robotripping (Robitussin) was my favorite. It was amazing. But so incredibly unhealthy. Sober from it for 8 years. Miss it but it's for the best. I couldn't do it now even if I wanted to because that dose would probs give me serotonin syndrome with my other meds. Otherwise, anything I could get my hands on. Slowly becoming sober from substances one by one! Lots of fun times. But also lots of terrible times. It was time to move on.

38 - Heroin and Meth. Smoke both. Will occasionally put up my butt. I cant really describe what its like. I am still aware of everything going on. I dont miss anything. Im not folded over in half for most of my day or anything...Im just high. It feels good. Its calming. Thats really weird to say but it is.

I get the most from Gabapentin right now. Before that it was benzos like clanazapamn. It took me a year to get off those.
