🙂 I hear you.

I agree, fentanyl is no joke. The reason I got so hammered by the diamorphine/heroin was because I had no tolerance to it. Having worked in the City for a while, the amount of substance abuse going on is ridiculous. Everyone is getting high to do recreation or getting low to sleep. This guy probably didn't realize he was basically trying to kill me.

I think that OD was the closest I have been to death. I really thought I wasn't going to make it.

I met an American at a party this summer, we discussed fentanyl and we both agreed that all chemicals are off limit now. I also raised this with my brother and he knows his weed dealer like a best friend, so he isn't concerned.

As for me, I've taken just about everything known to man and can learn nothing more from these substances. so I'm done with it all now. A dram of Ardbeg and a pipe of Nightcap tobacco will do the job just fine these days.

I smoke weed a few times a year when I can find my trusted hippie friend. I don’t like the medical weed, they did something bad to it. & it’s all genetically modified .

If you can get it, the South American weed is the best.

When I used to go to Amsterdam with my friends, we would smoke the craziest pollen/super skunk and instantly regret it. The Colombian weed was really sweet and tasty, and would actually make us less stoned.

When I lived in Bolivia, the local weed was really great. It gave you no paranoia and made you chatty and laugh a lot, much like what I call "Rastafarian weed" in the UK, which is...what you buy off Rastafarians.

Most weed these days makes you paranoid and feel like shit. No thanks.

I actively avoid smoking weed now. I just have no interest in it anymore. Been there, done that. To death.

I guess the safest things to take now would be shrooms you've cultivated yourself? No idea what is in any pills nowadays. Not worth the risk.
