Forums › Drugs › Legal & Herbal Highs › Women: Do you use legal highs instead of alcohol / illegal drugs?
Hey all.
There has been a lot of negative media on research chemicals just being used by kids (usually male). I’m a professional woman and wanted to connect to other people in the forum who are like me.
Do any of you have a group of girls that you socialize with? Sorry if there is already a thread similar – please point me in the right direction, I am new here!
Keen to hear about experiences.
Thanks
To be honest it probably is mostly young males experimenting with research chemicals, but there are definitely females that use them too. I know several females that, although not frequently, have or do experiment with research chemicals
TBH nearly all the young women I know do not take drugs at all or if they do stop around their mid 20s; and this includes the hippy/party types. In some cases they are new/expecting parents or mothers of pre-teens so that makes perfect sense (my own parents were once “hippy” types in the 1970s).
Women become emotionally mature quicker than men and thus more worried about professional/personal reputations; more so with all these social networks which are easy for employers and colleagues to monitor.
They are less likely to openly discuss stuff in a moral and legal grey area in untrusted environments; although RCs aren’t illegal to posess; taking them is classed as “potential self-harm/mental health issues” (the same applies to risky alcohol use patterns and/or illegal drug use); todays employers monitor professional staff for risky behaviour patterns.
Blokes often don’t care until they are about 30/40; or they make a major fuck up in life; however by that age if they’ve survived and aren’t in prison/mental health unit they’ve learned how to regulate their use to some extent.
yup womens frontal lobe develops more fully at an early age…
also i think there is some sort of double standard, society is more premissive of men doing drugs IMO.
yes I am female with a group of friends doing LH and I work too so weekend use, I have used illegals in the past..I am happy with my current use
