pickin pocks / tweaking to
long?
What is up
with pickin pocks? I have seen people with them all over their
arms and torso. Is this when you really know you are addicted?
Is it a product of being up too long or getting too high? Has
anyone ever had this problem, what is happening?
I don't truly understand how people can continuously do meth.
After doing it for a day and maybe the next day, you are so
depleted of dopamine, that doing more just makes you feel almost
normal. So, why continue? Ok, you do more because your tolerance
is up, but it doesn't blast you with another great high,
instead, you trip out, get anxious, your neck and head is tight,
and you either just want to do more but you can't because you
think you are too high already, or you wish you were normal
again and could sleep.
It seems like it is a better idea to just get enough for the
weekend, do it, and wait til the next weekend. Does anyone know
how this can lead to doing it everyday when you don't get that
good of a high again until your brain is reupt? |

Fornications are quite common in the more advanced stages of
meth addiction as well as late stage alcoholism.
Those pesky speed bugs, fibers, Cooties... can be a real
annoyance, especially after you pick one off and two more pop up
in its place.
I never noticed them until I was around someone who was a
picker, it wasn't long until I had 'em too! Avoid pickers!
Sorta like body crabs......except crabs are real.
If you had ever been through acute withdrawl/PAWS, you would
know exactly why a meth addict continues to use
You don't wanna know!

Ok I picked but not at things that weren't there( or so I think)
but I would pop zits and blackheads both me and my hubby would
do it forever! I ended up burning myself twice with a bowl on my
shoulder blade cause I was trying to pop a zit on my back while
I was smoking on the bathroom sink looking in the mirror! lol.

I'm totally with you and actually really glad that I was the
only out one of my friends and boyfriend that felt like that.
Cause I was totally okay with just snorting some bumps on the
weekends (or my favorite a hot rail).
The boys like to smoke it like every thirty minutes and stay up
for 5 to 6 days at a time. I never got it but I never got high
like they did when I smoked it either. It kept me up (my limit
was two days though) but I never had the euphoric feeling they
seemed to get.
I couldn't get why they just couldn't refrain until the weekend
but I'm glad because watching how out-of-control they were is
what made me start realizing maybe this wasn't something I
wanted to keep playing with.

Not necessarily. I was very much addicted
and I not one single time ever picked.
For me, how did I know I was hooked- I ran out.
I ran out of dope, couldn't find any, called everybody and their
grandmother trying to hook up, begging to hook up- and even
crying to hook up.

Yeah, it made sense to me too.
Perfect sense.
We did start out just upping on Friday. Just snorting- nothing
"serious" ..........yeah.
Then it got to where we did too much on Sunday and had to do a
bump more to get up on Monday.........
still snorting because we weren't real "addicts"
then it went from Friday to Monday to having to have just one
more on Tuesday because we still had the work week to get
through and our butts were dragging...........
Then it was every day, all day, into the night, and bigger
amounts.
Not to get the high we had the first time we used but to get to
the somewhat I can walk and make a sentence at the same time
versus crashed in bed all day feel.
We did it at first for the high- then we did it just so we could
function somewhat normally.
Snorting the whole time-
and then we ran out. and I stayed out. 11 years worth of out.
But yeah, that weekend thing sure sounded good at the time.
