I’ve only used K at raves and occasionally with friends or on my own but never at a house party or something similar. Do you think its easy to remain socialable while on K at an occasion such as this? Discuss!

Depends on your tolerance. I was on k most of the time for several years up until very recently and I’ve been to parties, bowling, BBQs, round my Mum’s etc and nobody’s been any the wiser.

Of course if you’re on the floor k-holing or you are moon walking around with a massive polo like a spaffer then not so much.

I have only ever done relatively small amounts of it and usually with a stimulant as well and that was even in times when I lived in SE England and knew so many users and dealers and there was so much about people would give me the stuff free for fixing computers, electronic kit and bicycles…

the impression I got a few years ago when I was last regularly partying in this region was that the folk who could remain sociable on K (and also still smoke weed) had already reached a tolerance level where they basically were addicted and suffering other physical and mental health problems. Also they didn’t take stimulants any more not because they were scared of them but they had already burned out from taking MDMA and amfet way too often, many having started in their mid teens. These were young people half my age and it was quite shameful to see this happen to another generation after the mistakes my generation made, and is a big reason as to why its so difficult to put on events here. Not simply because of feds but because too much of this stuff fucks up your organisational skills big time. Also many might have been friendly and socialble in the short term but really were not reliable true friends to each other, doing too many drugs makes folk selfish.

great video 🙂

so some ppl can function, some can’t… some can even drive after taking k…

TBH its all a matter of tolerance and that applies to all drugs. I used to ride my bicycle in some shocking states from around 2001-2005 especially, often riding 40-60 km or more over a weekend (including Reading to London and back) and only ended up in the gutter once and that was more from sleep deprivation than anything else. If I’d been doing any amount of K the whole journey was like a surreal cartoon….

I didn’t have an e-bike then either, just a touring bike (e-bikes weren’t really developed back them). But in hindsight what I often did was reckless and endangered myself and others, being on two rather than four wheels merely minimised the risk rather than eliminated it (TBH the sort of person I was back then if I’d had a car in my 20s or even the early part of my 30s I wouldn’t have made it here today, I’d be dead or still in prison).

youre still taking a gamble with yours and others lives, though that also goes for road users who use alcohol or legal drugs (even prescription ones).

feds and CSI boffins in the UK are introducing drug testing of drivers very soon (probably later this year) and it does test for ketamine.

That said these tests are routinely used in mainland Europe and they haven’t exactly stopped drugs culture or partying there, folk just are more sensible about what transport methods they use. 😉 Its still illegal to ride a bicycle dangerously / under the influence across the UK and Europe but comparatively few people get nicked for it (its not totally unheard of especially if colliisions with pedestrians occur).

A lot of the young Dutch folk mention trying to ride a bicycle in NL whilst under the influence of K really is not a pleasant or fun thing to do (the Dutch cyclists are fast, impatient and judgemental at peak times like any other road users) and DUI will cost you hundreds of Euros and your driving license (which is way harder to get in NL than UK). Thankfully there are lots of buses and trams and metropolitan and mainline trains almost 24/7 in most cities.
