I'm not going to mention the name of the certain drug, as it's very unpopular, but yeah.
I did it a few times last year. And everytime I see the name, watch a movie, or hear a song about it...cravings.
And I don't wish to go back to that certain drug.

Any advice on how to stop cravings?

find somthing that you like that's good for you to replace those cravings.
next time you get a craving...try chewing some peperment gum or something that has a strong taste that will keep your mind off what you want. and just keep telling yourself NO

i quit doing drugs a couple of years ago. sometimes even to this day i smell a certain one or i'll take a bite of a food and it tastes [i:kc40sc3t]exactly[/i:kc40sc3t] like one of them. it's never going to go away. but they do get farther in between away from each other.

i once tried to hang out with a friend i used to do drugs with after i quit. this never ever ever works. i ended up relapsing that night. be careful.

i did a lot of stupid things but every now and then i still get cravings. now everytime i get a craving a go for a walk.

Well I no longer hang out with the people I used to. But cravings are still a problem, espeically because of what drug it was.

I use to smoke weed all the time, now I only have it when ever me n my bro is bored.. So we have a gathering and smoke some...

keep yourself buisy. its always good to keep your mind occupied from wondering when it comes to that stuff.

This is why I tend to hate people who use drugs.

Waste of life.

If it's REALLY bad, go to your GP, and he/she will put you on tablets.


rawr

It's not REALLY bad, otherwise I would have gone out and done some more.
It's just cravings.

And given my different occupations, I'm constantly surrounded by drug abuse.
I AM doing something that keeps me happy and busy, but a lot of drug users are doing the same thing.

what makes a drug really bad?

if you abuse anything, it's never good. even food. food is some people's heroin. if you had a problem, you had a problem. period. there's no sugar coating it.
like i said, your flashbacks/cravings won't ever go away. you just have to be strong. that's all there is to it. for lack of a better phrase, you do the crime, you do the time.

its will power, you obviously gave it up for a reason

so whenever you have a craving,
think of why you quit in the first place

shit dude, I know what your going through. I am an addict, cocaine. Just think of something better. Shit sucks, but it will get better.

It's getting easier. I just avoid movies like Trainspotting or Sid and Nancy.

yeh, exactly.

i think it's all in your mentality...be aware that you have decided that this drug is no good, and come to terms with why it's not good. know your reasons for not wanting it, and be very strong-willed with that thinking.

UNFORGIVEABLE.

ps. I lurv you.

Aww, I love you too <3

...howd you know it was me? I don't even think I've posted pics or anything

I crave cocaine the way virgins crave sex.

I've never done it, I dont know where to get it and I worry that I'll freak out while Im doing it.

Cocaine may be a fun drug honey, but it's honestly a waste of money. The high doesn't last long enough, and it's expensive. And I don't recommend drug use to anybody.

Not to mention it's extremely destructive.

I have no advice for you, since I haven't been in your situation. I use to do those things too though, until I had a really bad experience and ended up in hospital. After all consequences i've had to deal with because of what happened, it will be a looong time before I dare myself to touch it again.
Keep fighting against you cravings. Don't let yourself down, it's not worth it.

Aww, I don't need anything but you and her to keep me off drugs. cause i get love and hugs.

now get me a dr.pepper bitch

u need a couple of things:

1)will power coz u needed to be strong about this sought of thing
2)seeking professional adivce coz u need support to help u
3)friends that will understand and are not on/do drugs.
4)Occupy yourself with something healthy like exercise,hobby like music of some kind,anything thats no a danger to ur health

coz here we are a big community of Spinnerette and Distillers lover and we are similar in that way,we can help each other through anything i beleive even though we are complete strangers ,sometimes a stranger is wat u need

hmm i dont think im any good at giving advice. drugs and alcohol have runned my life for soo long. ive been on the bandwagon and fallen on my ass numerous times. whenever i have a craving, i try to think of the worst possible circumstance that could happen. or ask yourself "and then..." u score and get high, and then need another and another. until ur out of money and can't go to work and u lose friends and family...etc. u will always end up sad, depressed, and yearning for more until u die or become a shell of your former self.
at least thats what helps me.
stay strong!

I know people who have thrown away decent shots at life for drugs, fucking sucks.

Like a lot of people are saying here, you need will power. It is hard because when it comes to this certain drug, I have very little will power. I have gotten so much better though. I dont hang out with my friends that use as much, and I leave as soon as it is mentioned. But I am seeing this new guy and he doesnt use so that helps a lot. We have so fun when we are together, so I rarely even think about it. I'm very happy with my current situation. You just have to take it one day at a time though. Will power, good friends and keep busy, oh and dont feel bad for having cravings. You are human, you will have times that you are going to want to use but you just have to resist.

a crude, but hopefully effective attempt to disuade you.

figure one:


using cocaine causes brain lesions. the person to whom this brain once belonged died of a cocaine overdose. the large dark area of the cerebral cortex is a brain hemorrhage caused by cocaine abuse.

ewww eesh i hope my brain never gets that bad!

have u thought of attending meetings like AA or NA for support?

i used to tweak A LOT. and then there was the pills.
honey, the craving will never go away. ive been clean for a year, and to this day i dont know if i would do some tweak if it was handed to me. im sorry if i sound like a nihlist.
but we'll both live. that shit isnt worth it.
not associating with old drug buddies works really well for me. it lessens the cravings like mad. and ive found productive ways to calm me down.

delicious

I just wanted to say that I have not done a certain drug in a month and a week!!! This is the longest I have gone basically since I started using the stupid drug. I feel so much better and I am so proud of myself!

i was sober for about two weeks. (dont ridicule me it was a long time) and told everyone i was gonna quit but my supplier showed up at my work and now im back into it. those two weeks everytime i craved my drug i would smoke about half a pack of cigarettes. it sorta helped.

try that unless you dont smoke

Uhm..i have no advice for you.
But i can tell you something..
my aunt is adiccted to cocaine,and that's not funny.
She is ruining her kid's life and HER LIFE.
so...seeing it from my point of view...i think you should see in what u are going to become if u keep on that shit.
And when u feel like doing it again,you should think: I DONT WANNA BE A FUCKING PIECE OF GARBAGE. AND MOST IMPORTANT,I WONT BE A FUCKING PIECE OF GARBAGE..


i know that my advice is not what you wanted to hear...but im telling you the truth


i hope you dont get mad with me.

worship satan, do drugs, kill your family

Drugs are shit.

I don't wanna play the saint, I did my mistakes and paid it, even if I've always been more into alcohol & cigarettes than into drugs.. Luckily..

I used to smoke a lot of weed when I was younger, and I tried E mixed up with some other shit a couple of times.. I even tried cocaine, but I was too scared to snort it so I just put a cigarette into in and smoked it.. That means that I've never really tried coke..

My big, big luck is that I've always been more scared than curious about heavy drugs.. Cause I do know myself: if I try something and I like it, I do everything to the Nth degree.. So I've been very lucky not to start doing something that would have surely screwed up my life..

Unfortunately, someone very close to me has been very, very curious, and after having tried every drug wanted to try even THAT one.. Now this person is 72 days clean and I'm so proud of it!!

That one is the biggest bastard, cause nothing can make you feel better, nothing compares to it, so it becomes more important than your work/school, your family, your friends, your girlfriend/boyfriend.. Even better than yourself..

I'm sure that if people who starts taking that shit could see themselves when they're totally screwed up with our eyes maybe they'll think twice before doing that again.. They probably feel in heaven when they're under its effect.. But they just look stupid, boring, pathetic and ugly to me. It changes the usual way of talking, walking, it makes people asleep everywhere they are, no matter what they're doing, it completely messes up their faces.. It's disgusting looking someone that you really care when he/she's high on taht shitty drug.. And what about the itch? It seems that fleas are everywhere, covering your friend/partner, and you just can't do anything to calm it down.. And that particular kind of pain in the bones when you need to do it? And the sweat and the shivering? I can go on for days.. When you have the unluck to see someone you really really love, totally high on heroin ( cause we're fucking talking about it) it eats you from the inside.. It's so painful that it's impossible to expain.. It's like if someone is tearing your heart away from your body.. It really, fucking hurts..

So.. To everyone who's in touble with that shit: please, don't give up staying clean, fight it, destroy it, screw it up, before it will screw you.. Cause you all know sooner or later it will..

A big hug to everybody needs a bit of human touch..

in my opinion they will never go away and iknow that sound depressing and im sorry. i used to be a junkie and iv been clean for 3 years and little things to this day still give me cravings. you just have to try to stay away from it and stay strong. I believe in you!

I think this girl was wrong,i mean.It's not a HARD drug,but..IT IS a drug.Be careful.

she was joking.

pills were my weakness, after i stopped using crack i was all proud of myself until i moved onto something else.... an adict is always on the lookout... sad. but ive been clean now for a little over two years... and my life is better than ever.

i feel left out now that i haven't done anything apart from weed.

not that i would be sad.

Don't feel left out, I'm the same way.

its weird how some people are like totally freaked out about drugs

it'll probably sound dumb but the times ive been on drugs have been some of the best nights of my life!

but i dont do them all the time usually like once a month or something

i used to smoke a fair bit of pot. But i haven't touched it in a week and a half. And i've been around it too! It's all self control i know i need to stop to be a FF, so i just say fuck that, in the past week i've been offered THC in so many forms, hash, oil, and pot, and i havent had a little bit. Im so proud of myself, even though its not that great of an acheivment, but just because i resisted the temptation so many times in the past little while.
