This isn't directed towards anyone at all. It's just a random thought.
It always has struck me as odd that people are tolerable of E, Coke and other shit but yet Meth and heroin...can never be spoken about.
I get that Meth is fucking gross and personally I don't get the god damn appeal. But that's because I never liked it and it ruined someone very close to me.
I did heroin for years and years. a long time recovering junkie, but regardless all drugs are playing with fire. and after seeing the spiral effect of people starting out on one thing and going onto another I don't see why people think coke is better than doing dope (heroin) or meth because it's not. there is no justification IMO to play with fire.
I feel like if someone were to post " I tried Meth last night " or "I tried heroin" everyone would be on this bandwagon of "you're a fucking retard for even going there" Yet no one is.
Drugs are bad mmmkay

I always thought coke was a really white trash sort of drug. The thought of it makes me picture guys with mullets driving Camaros and beating their girlfriends.
Bwahahahahah! That also applies to meth. Mullets, Camaros, beatdowns, drug deals in the garage? My house, circa 1989.
Because of that, I don't do drugs...My fucking family is an AfterSchool Special. We're so crazy & fucked up already, drugs only make it worse. & You don't wanna see "worse" out of us....:P

i find it peculiar that in the states, meth holds the same taboo as heroin. meth is one of the more 'socially acceptable' drugs here, and of all the people i know who have used drugs at one point in their life, meth would be the most common drug taken. at every strip club i've worked at, meth has been the most popular drug of choice.
edit: actually, now that i think about it, meth was the first drug i ever tried. i didn't really know much about it, only that all the other girls at my club used to take it a lot and it wasn't considered one of the 'bad' drugs. hah.

It's quickly becomming the US's drug of choice as well. Before I left Hawaii almost 12 years ago, it was the most widely used controlled substance next to weed.

drugs never did it for me. well, i can see the fun of pot- but i hardly even consider that a drug... wow, haven't smoked in a year and a half... definitely wanted to lately, why i have no idea.
coke never interested me. i tried it a few times in college, nothing ever happened, and then last time i did it i literally fell backwards on the floor and was out cold for a few minutes. dunno what happened. that was over 4 yrs ago, haven't touched it since, don't feel any need. yich.
i admit, though... i DO like vicoden. ... yeah. a lot. i know better than to score any and have it around, but that's the one drug i could see becoming a problem.

I've never tried it myself. Although I have done everything else. It just never appealed to me.
Really? I always thought coke was more of a businessman/rich white kid kind of drug, lol! I always think of men in suits, eyes going nuts, sweating and foaming at the mouth.
I have tried coke before (didn't really want to, but stupid boyfriend pressured me into it), and I think I'd rather scrape my teeth against the sidewalk than fucken do that shit again. That shit is SO GROSS. The numbing, dripping, UGH. Not to mention my heart was hurting every single time, and the next day I felt so depressed....like borderline suicidal. I didn't even do that much of it AT ALL, I couldn't imagine what shit I would feel like if I had.

That's probably because I'm "old". I also don't associate strip clubs with coke for some reason. Meth is definitely more popular in LA but the girls mostly keep their habits to themselves out there.

yup- i didn't even know what a "tweaker" was until I moved to CA. Coke is much more popular on the East Coast and the Midwest (esp. in cities and on certain scenes, like the music/art scene), but lately i've seen a revival across all cultures/subcultures and have seen meth lose popularity. IMO, both are terribly addictive, but people can still be FUnCtional while doing coke... i've never ONCE heard of a "functional meth user."

Coke is the norm out here in the northern east coast. I never tried anything, except pot. Too much of a chicken shit, lol. I had a yellow diet pill to stay up once and I thought I was gonna die. I wish there were safe alternatives to get you hyper.
And what is Adderall?

Adderall is a prescription amphetamine, like Ritalin or Dexedrine. It's prescribed for ADD/ADHD... and can be easily abused (since a lot of doctors give out scripts for it). Some symptoms of taking it are very focused concentration, lots of energy, speaking quickly, drymouth... it can last like 2-3 up to 10 hours depending on the dosage & if it's extended release or not. Many people are concerned that it's overprescribed for children & that it gives some college students and unfair advantage. Some strippers may like it for long shifts, esp. b/c you can drink more on it.
It's similar to the other drugs discussed in this thread in being an upper, but the purity is more reliable (since it's manufactured by pharmaceutical companies) and you don't get as 'high' (unless you drink a shitload of coffee)...

I never want sex when I'm rolling. I just want to run around and tell everyone that I love them. ;D I have absolutely no attention span to speak of and I tend to baby people, too. I don't understand it. I'm like, "Are you drinking water? Do you need water?" Lol. I've had sex on E just to try it... After a minute, I was like, "Let's do something else now!"

Darcy, those numbers are insane! I'm gonna go sell me some coke in Australia, too! The last I checked around here (maybe four years ago, lol), it was $60/gram

Never tried it. With my tolerance as high as it is, it probably wouldnt work on me anyway so why bother? It would be a waste of money and prob just cause me health problems because of the health issues I already have.
Cant say I'm not curious though.

I didn't like coke the first time I tried it either. After living with a coke dealer and doing it because everyone else was, I eventually got hooked.
Now I only do it at work. It helps sober me up when I get too drunk.

I didn't try it until a few years after I'd stopped dancing. I remember in my first club in Baltimore a lot of the girls were on it and that made me not want to do it for the longest time.
Then I realized that pretty much all my friends had done it (even the most innocent seeming ones) and I was at a pretty low point where I was self-medicating, so I did it a few times a week for a couple months, usually while drinking.
Cocaethylene's a hell of a drug!
Luckily, I got past that bender intact. Haven't done it since before the new year and don't have an urge to.
I guess I'm fortunate that I don't remember the high fondly. The memory related to blow that most sticks out for me is the crushing depression the day after you do it. The high really isn't worth it, to me at least.

07-10-2008, 02:14 PM
I love Dexedrine. Love love love. And I promised myself I'd never do it again either, because I use it as a crutch. Plus it's hard to get a hold of.
Given that, I never tried coke. Scares me. What's the point?

07-10-2008, 03:09 PM
I have done coke maybe 4 times in my lifetime and yes i like it a lot and that is why i have only done it 4 times.
Addiction sucks. I have never been addicted to substances but i know from first hand that addiction sucks. That is why i limit myself.
One time out of those four times i did a bit too much coke and i felt the effects for days. My nose kept running and was chapped for days.

You don't have to justify it, you know me. I'm just trying to get away from that because it really doesn't fit in my lifestyle anymore, I'm trying to be healthier all around, and it became a horrific problem for me, not just a recreational thing.

07-10-2008, 03:26 PM
Coke is good for when you want to have an intense conversation in someone's basement for hours and hours on end. Or when you want to feel confident and bitchy. But I stay away, generally, because I tend to crash super hard and feel like crap for days even if I only do a couple bumps.

Though I don't need any more help being bitchy. That's just encoded in my DNA. :P

an intense conversation you might not remember lol. i remember one time me and this guy were just talking AT each other.. not even TO each other bc we were just talking. and then this girl was like "geez what were you guys talking about for so long?" and i couldnt remember.

Yup, I agree. One of the reasons I drink less these days, because I'd mostly want to do it while drinking.
I'm also spending a lot less time with people who I know have easy access to it.
Fortunately, I wouldn't know where to find it even if I had the urge, since I don't know any dealers and it's never even occurred to me to ask people I know for that info.
I'm sure I'll be around it again at some point in the future, but I've minimized the situations that have gotten me doing it and have managed to without really feeling anything negative in the process in terms of lost friends or social life. Knock on wood...

i fucking LOVE adderal/dexedrine/ritalin. ahahah. that stuff is the bomb. $1.50 per pill and i'm a happy chatty focused energetic little monster for a good 5 hours. it gives me the most amazing sense of clarity and focus and i just laugh and laugh and laugh. i used to make so much money when i took it at work haha.

For most people that do coke for the first time and don't feel anything, I'm going to assume its because it was cut with something else (asprin, for example). In a lot of places (mostly college towns I've noticed) dealers do this to maximize their profits with a demographic that prolly wouldn't notice.
My ex was a dealer, as was his friend. I did one "pure" bump after one of the shit he was gonna sell some frat boy.... I noticed the difference RIGHT away.
I love blow...buts that exactly why I don't do it anymore ;)
Regardless, coke is not for everyone. My theory is that people do the drug that is opposite of their normal personality. High-stress people smoke weed, more introverted people do blow. Etc. Etc. When I smoke weed and sit around, watch TV, and eat oreos I'm like "what the fuck? I do this everyday anyways for free!"
Darcy Foxx
07-10-2008, 07:10 PM

i think i just like getting high, regardless of what substance. each drug has their own unique reaction and i crave different things at different times.

07-10-2008, 07:17 PM
oh, i didn't mean at the same time hehe. i just meant, sometimes i like to get really high on coke, other times i like to smoke a bunch of weed. i don't do either of them frequently, but i do like them bot a lot.
the drug i probably use most often is ketamine. it's definitely my fave.

I have a prescription for Adderall for my terrible ADHD. It kind of makes me sad that it doesn't have the effect on me that everyone's describing!;D
It just makes me alert and focused. Once when I took too much on accident though I realized I'd been talking a mile a minute to a custy. He looked like he wanted me to go away lol. Oops.

And what is Adderall?
Adderall is, essentially, a legal amphetamine, aka a type of speed.
It's typically prescribed for ADD/ADHD, sometimes "off-label" for some types of depression and the generic version of it literally says "amphetamine salts" on the label.
There is potential for addiction to it, as with any drug. It's used as a diet pill a lot too, as amphetamines often can be, legal or not.
I've been on it for 2 years, taking it maybe 2-4 times a week. Other times I may go on what's called an "Adderall holiday" and not take it for a week or more.
I don't get high off of it, but it does help me focus more and gives me more energy, definitely. Part of the reason I purposefully limit my use of it is not to build a tolerance. In two years I haven't had to increase my dose to get the same effect and I want to keep it that way.

I just wanted to add...
When I saw how many posts this thread had, I assumed it had been around for while. Then I noticed it was started yesterday.
I think it's pretty awesome that so many people have posted and discussed this topic with honesty.
So often we hear (and see) the negitive association between strippers and drug use. It's always about druggies who strip to buy more drugs...girls doing lines in the dressing room....girls acting like morons when they are fucked up at work.
When you consider that so many people in general use drugs recreationally (pot, coke, adderal, xanax, etc.) I don't think this subject should be taboo.
I understand how serious drug addiction can be, I know how sad or frusterating it can be to work with people (dancers or staff) who have a serious problem.....but overall to discuss casual drug use without lumping everyone who does drug into a negitive catagory is very refreshing.
Does that make sense?:)
