Party Vibe

its more an issue of the mindsets between the use of “legal” and “recreational” drugs.

if someone is prescribed drugs such as beta blockers not out of choice but out of necessity and they either don’t work or have to many side effects, they will be the first to come running to the NHS and complaining about their treatment. Some people even choose not to take essential drugs because of side effects and even die because of this..

Also the stuff what the NHS gets is produced to very strict standards indeed, and those administering it have been taught how to minimise the risks as much as possible. Hence any legal drugs although they have risks often have less than regular recreational usage.

with recreational drugs there is an even bigger unknown, as to how they have been produced/what they have been cut with.

Also the other problem is because some people are rebellious/stubborn they simply refuse to accept their drug use is harming themselves and others, and will not self-regulate their use. TBH I’m amazed at the pain people seem prepared to put themselves through (bladder problems /cramp etc) simply to continue being able to use ketamine.

trying to dumb down the problem or saying its “boring” won’t make it go away.

I started this thread nearly two years ago because of two friends of mine from my old area who suffered increasingly serious medical problems due to excessive K usage. they have made a “recovery” as such (i.e they aren’t dead and their internal organs haven’t been totally destroyed) – but from what I heard they will suffer various health issues for the rest of their lives..

if you don’t like the bad news you don’t have to read it but you don’t have a right to complain about about people discussing real problems. The only reason there are so many threads about K on this and many other forums is because the whole party/alternative/drugs scene is starting to revolve around it…
