OMG, I can't do E. I used to, years ago, because my ex was a Bad Influence (lol), and all it did was make me have hardcore bad trips, and super paranoid, and puke all night, and I'd hallucinate (audio, and visual).

LOL

So I stick to whiskey, good beer, and weed (which is my vice).

Also, iced tea. Addddiiictted.

your e was probably cut with acid or angeldust. and yes, it's possible for yours to look like your boyfriends but be made of something entirely different (that's what foodcoloring is for).

nah, it was pretty much every time i did it. for the first 20 minutes or so, every time, i'd have a panic attack.

everyone else would be fine, "rolling balls", and i'd be in the bathroom trying not to panic, and distracting myself with the mini-movies on the tile. i met someone else who would have serious visuals with it as well. i've done acid, and it wasn't at ALL the same kind of visuals or feelings.

sometimes it was cut, yes, but not always. i could usually tell.

coke makes me sleepy after a while. i'll start out up, but even if i keep going (messes with my tummy tho), i eventually get sleepy and down.

and so, i stick with weed and alcohol:P i know my limits. i hate puking!!

i almost wish i could do weed sometimes. it causes me to freeze up and my limbs start jerking around like i have parkinsons or something.

ah, well. ;)

we used to have E-vents hosted at our house, but we're all poor and stuff now, so it's been forever.

The third night of a 3-day run of the Grateful Dead, my hippy friends at the time turn to me, realizing I had done nothing -- and officially proclaimed that I am weird enough and should -never- do drugs.

some of the straightest people i have met (meaning no alcohol or drugs, not sexual orientation) seem to have much more fun in life without it. lawd knows that i feel much better now that i do almost none of it (though i'm sipping wine atm.)

The last time I had weed it was laced. I was on a camping trip and thought I heard a man with a baby walk by our tent in the morning. My heart wouldn't stop beating fast. It was a baaaad situation. Freaked me out enough to the point where I wasn't excited to do it again.

i went through phases where i smoked it a lot, and then the last several times i did it, my muscles would clench and start jerking around like i had parkinsons or something. so no more pot for me.

I'm not even sure you could call my alcohol consumption even "occasional" at this point. "Once in a blue moon" is more like it, and probably even less frequently than that. That's it at this point...though I've done a bunch of stuff in the past, including getting high on scotchguard, and doing poppers, but it's just not part of my life now.

same here. i decided to invest in some red wine because of the health helps that everyone says, but that will be one small cup a night, not boozing like i used to do. and truthfully, i don't miss it.

I find that I get headaches after red wine, so I rarely drink it. I do tend to indulge a bit more when I'm at my inlaws, which averages out two glasses of wine a day for about five days. Trying to get pregnant, however, curtails that, too.
