Told my wife what happened and kicked it that day. Then I realized that it could have easily fallen between the seats and caught fire, or on my crotch (cringe) and I could have burned to death and never felt a thing. 5-1 inch deep 3 inch long chunk missing from my leg. Woke up the next day and hopped in the shower and that's when I saw the 4 inch blister on my leg. Woke up a couple hours later, it was dark, I didn't see the wound, and I didn't feel any pain either, so I slunk up to bed. It sat there for god knows how long burning straight through my jeans, my skin, and good chunk of the fat underneath. I blacked out mid smoke and the cigarette fell on my leg. I wasn't driving, that was one line I never crossed thank god, but I was in my appartment complex parking lot. I was listening to Art Bell (back in the day when he was on ) on the radio in my car, drunk as shit and smoking my last cigarette before bed. So I switched to alchohol, and became a blackout drunk for years.Īmong many milestones that I hit that other saner people would consider rock bottom, like blacking out one night and dropping my sleeping infant son on the floor (it was only from the couch seat to the floor, and we had him checked out, he's fine, but still the most shameful moment of my life I think), spending our rent money on booze and then lying to everyone including my landlord (close familly friend) and wife to cover it up, and then having my wife almost leave me twice because of the drinking. After doing everything under the sun when I was younger, availability of them disapeared when I left school and entered the real world. I'm an opportunistic addict and I don't really have a drug of choice, but I'm partial to hallucinogens and downers. I had to hit rock bottom, and almost kill myself before I got the strength to quit. Good luck, your a good friend to want to help someone with this. This will be hard for both of you if this is a really good friend of yours who is someone you feel will be a friend for life. Sometimes support is just a reminder of what they're missing, when all they want is to keep their mind off of whatever it is they're addicted to. The other thing would be to not constantly remind them. The only thing I can stress is if they have a relapse, never get angry or act disappointed with them for a prolonged period of time. If I could do it with no support, they can do it with some support. It's hard and so long as your friend has support they'll be fine and make it. For me it would've been around 150$ a day if I didn't find ways to make it way cheaper for myself. You spend SO much money on drugs to keep yourself high everyday, even if your friend is only a casual user that's still a fair amount of money each week. You have to want to stop doing what you're currently doing because if you don't your life WILL NOT be as good as it could be. I obviously had my relapses but generally afterwards (the next day) I felt like crap and regretted my night of "fun". I steered clear of alcohol cause all it made me want to do was E or MDMA. Whenever I felt the need to get high I at least had that. I quit when I was 19 (5 years ago) I disassociated myself with anyone who wasn't just a drug buddy (a friend who you're only friends with cause you both enjoy getting fucked up) I used weed to quit. I was a very heavy user of E, MDMA, coke, and K. ![]() It is totally dependent on the substance in question here. >!insert spoiler here!< Other subreddits you might like: some Mod posts Serious posts Megathread Breaking news Unfilter Please use spoiler tags to hide spoilers.
