Hi everyone my name is Kate Pearson and I am studying journalism at Kingston University in London, currently in my final year.
I know most people run the other way when they see journalist but please bear with me! I am doing an investigation into the growing popularity of legal highs and it would really help to have some first hand accounts of experiences with legal highs, whether they be really enjoyable or actually really horrible.
If you wanna just write a bit in the thread below that would be really appreciated, or if you wanted to speak in a bit more detail maybe send me a private message? Of course you can remain anonymous either way, this will not be publish anyway! simply given to my teacher for marking, thats is it!
Anything anyone could share about their experience would be incredibly helpful! Thank you and have a good day.
The other weekend whilst on a shit ton of legal benzo’s I took some aMT up my arse and it was amazing! I’d taken it orally previously, but it was nothing compared to the hit I got when I squirted it up my arse. Made my eyes roll back in my head for hours after, was mad.
yeah ok, haha probably a little inappropriate to use as an example but thanks for the reply at least! Had any bad experiences? Or all been as good as that one..
Mostly good experiences. Only times I’ve ever really had bad experiences on drugs are when I’ve been sold something that wasn’t what it was supposed to be, or I took too much of something stupidly. I’ve been doing drugs illegal and legal for about 15 odd years never really had too much of a problem other then going a bit mad after smoking cannabis daily for 7 years and becoming an alchaholic when I quit cannabis. The legal drug that’s caused me the most damage over my live has been alcohol with no shadow of a doubt.
Never really had any problems at all with other legal chemicals, but then I’m always pretty careful of what I’m doing, and I know a fair bit about this stuff. The real problems happen when someone doesn’t know their dose and takes too much, mixes drugs together without knowing how they react or gets sold something that’s not what it’s supposed to be. If you’re careful and have the correct drug and know how much you should take and don’t mix it with anything else, the risks are generally minimal. I mean some drugs are more dangerous then others, but even what are classed as dangerous drugs, like PMA for example are mostly as dangerous as they are as they are sold as MDMA in pills and people take them as if they were taking MDMA, which is very dangerous. If you were to take PMA using the correct dose and knowing how long it takes to effect you so you don’t re-dose (one of the problems when it’s in pills and sold as MDMA) then it reduces the risk dramatically I would imagine.
Oh ok, yeah often if people know what they’re taking they can be aware of how much to take and how often to take it, I guess that was one of the things that interested my about legal highs- the fact people can sometimes be taking something because it is ‘brightly coloured’ or whatever and not know what theyre actually dealing with. Thanks 🙂
It would help a lot to minimize any risks if there was testing done and honest safety information easily accessible so people didn’t mess up by mistake. As opposed to the “sweep the truth under the carpet (and just tell everyone it’s bad for you without divulging any specifics)” stance most governments take currently. You can never remove the fact that some people are just stupid and do dangerous amounts of a substance even when they know it’s dangerous, but these people would most likely be doing other dangerous things in their lives anyway, as it’s more a state of mind and a way of life for people “living dangerously”. This doesn’t really reflect the drug’s personality or risks, as you can hurt your self doing anything to excess drugs or otherwise.
The more of a taboo these things are, the less widely available and reliable information is out there, and this is THE most dangerous thing when it comes to taking drugs … not knowing what you are doing.
