ive yet to see physical health impacts with my friends, but given time i’m sure it will come… but with my friends who use it regularly i can see strong impacts on their mind, those who are trying to cut back on how much they have are finding it very hard to do, and others have terrible paranoia, and the worst short-term memorys ever!
i still love the stuff though, just keep it to the weekend and know when to say no
I avoided it myself for many years or so then became an occasional user mostly “because all my mates did it”. Even then I prefer other experiences.
The problem though isn’t so much K but also the binge culture, and people constantly chasing “a new high”. When my mate first started regularly doing it it was about 6 years ago, and people started doing it because they had already got bad experiences off pills/amfet from caning too much, and initially K doesn’t have as much of a comedown.
I think when people are doing anything midweek its a bad sign, and although this sounds really “capitalist/mainstream” I feel the discipline of normal work (not necessarily working for a corporate, but some sort of work where you can’t get away with being trashed every day) is one of the things what holds you together during the week and makes the weekend worthwhile (and this comes from someone who was caning it every few days at one stage in his life!)
