"Popper" Problems - what do I do?

Hi Hip Forums hippies, i've got a big problem.

i'm currently 19 years old, I started smoking bud at the age of 12, and at the age of 14 it turned into a habbit with my group of friends. Since our first year of highschool, one of us would ALWAYS find money for chronic and we always had a system where if one person has chron we all get high. We all worked together to make sure that we all got high, every day. We blazed on our lunch break every day and the days we couldn't do that class was hell.

Further into highschool our group of about 15 had depleted to about 5, everyone was dropping out/getting kicked out/moving away BECAUSE of weed. This was the end of grade 10 that the group began to shrink and then one day my friend found this new way to smoke weed called "Poppers". A popper is when you take a cut of tobbaco and put it into a small "Popper shaft" which is basically a bowl piece, but for poppers. You then dip your "Popper" in a few stomps of weed throw it in a bong and pull it all at once. It makes huge smoke clouds, and gets you high very quickly requiring a smaller ammount of weed. ALL of my friends got into this, and began to get addicted. For my grade 12 and 13 year it was only me and my friend Ashley remaining in the "Group" at school, everyone else had dropped out or fucked up.

Her and I proudly graduated highschool together being the only stoners of our group of 15 or more to succeed. The problem is, i'm also in a sense "Addicted" to poppers. Since grade 10, i've been smoking poppers after school EVERY day. All of my friends smoke poppers, and when i'm hanging out with them at our local "blazing house" everyone is smoking poppers so I do the same. I'm now done school and I have a lot of free time so i've been smoking my days away which is great and all, but poppers are disguisting and feeding the addiction is too expensive! I've started dealing just to pull in more profits to support my own popper smoking. I've got an addictive personality, and i've already conquered a 1 year addiction to MDMA but this one just can't be beat.

Regular bowls, joints, vape hits and pipes just aren't doing it for me - they don't get me high enough, and they take up so much weed. When smoking poppers I can be perfectly high and relaxed for a full day with only 2 grams. Poppers are taking all of the motivation out of me, and because I can't smoke ciggarettes (Never have, never will) nothing fixes my cravings but a nice popper. Does anyone know a good way to get off these things? Anyone in the same situation? Know any new ways to smoke weed that may bring my love for the natural green back? Any feedback is appreciated, but please don't bad talk me that's not what i'm here for i'm simply here for advice from good people.

Peace&love.

 

Whats up. While im not experienced with "poppers", I will give you some advice

First of all, don't start smoking cigs, you have already made a good choice in not doing so. Secondly, I would recommened taking a tolerance break. Even though it may be hard to break a daily weed habit, it will do you a world of good, because you will be able to go back to smoking bowls and such so you can enjoy the herb

See that's my problem, I took a 2 month tolerance break in a pact with my friends. I was getting blitzed out of my mind off of one or two bowls, but very quickly that stopped and I began to smoke the odd popper. The odd popper turned into a popper bowl ratio of 1:2, and now i'm back to my old poper fiending self. Ugggh mary jane why must you do this to me.

 

Another big problem that has come up is that if I haven't smoked a popper before going to sleep i'm up until 6AM tossing and turning, I have trouble sleeping when i'm not high but it's always been like that. I personally despise people who use drugs as a "Coping method" but now i'm starting to sound equally as bad.

 

nicotine gum... .....and willpower


people with more severe addictions would want to beat you up for even complaining about this

 

I'm aware there are MUCH more serious addictions, i've dealt with one personally. There's no withdrawals in this, but it's hard to explain what goes on in you're in a sense "Fiending"

 

Poppers are an Inhalant .. often used in the sexual underground to expand asshole..

twisting terms, chemical names and uses is a bigger problem than you realize when titling your condition..

stop huffing gas, smoke or whatever it is .. go play Nintendo..

 

maybe you should start a second thread in the stoners lounge for a different reply?..oh wait...you already did?


you might have a hard time in the real world sweet pea

 

I'm just trying to get advice, so I posted it in the two most suitable sections. I don't see how it affects you whatsoever. Orison, i'm aware of the "Anal Relaxent" poppers and it's not that shit LOL. It's just the name they were givin for the popping sound they make when you pull them.

 

Additional threads will be deleted.. and If you piss "the cloud people" off enough,, so will this one..

 

So, you smoke some tobacco with weed...

its not a special thing... it isn't magical...

and here's one for you... you DO SMOKE tobacco...

the fact that you don't smoke whole cigs just says that your problems are in your fucking mind...

try quitting a 2 or 3 PACK of smokes a day and then whine....



oh... and one more thing...

If you ever smoke a real joint... don't call 911 and tell them you think you're dying...

 

you got yelled at

 

Get a real job, quit mixing tobacco with your weed, problem solved. :2thumbsup:

 

This man knows.

Also, did you seriously just say you "beat" a one year addiction to MDMA? And then later allude to it as a "worse" addiction?

Class was "hell" without pot?

Your friends fucked up their lives on POT, a soft psychedelic? You know what they say, about the company you keep.... I've fucked my life plenty, but it took a lot more than pot to make it happen, even if I got popped (see wut I did there?) for pot at the same time.

I think it's pretty obvious you should not be touching drugs at all, at least until you've got some willpower and a considerably better understanding of drugs.

Again.... you beat an MDMA addiction.... wow...

Also, poppers are some shit for ten year olds in the ghetto, grown ups smoke snaps.

 

Chronic, it's been a habbit for years and it's causing problems. It's the mix of the two, smoking a pack of ciggarettes a day doesn't get you high poppers do. It's hard to carry on with your day after a few poppers or at least it is for me because I become lazy and unmotivated. I'm not looking for smart ass and rude comments i'm looking for someone who has been in the situation or someone with advice on the subject so if you've got something to say that's just being said to put me down - don't bother, move on to a new post and put them down.

 

Some of my friends are idiots, and that doesn't reflect me whatsoever. I'm sure you've never smoked poppers and you probably haven't seen the slobs they can make of people. Now you're going to put me down over the MDMA problems? I was doing that shit every night to the point where I needed MDMA to get me out of the next day "Hang over" the shit got me hospitalized 4 times, you know nothing about the problems I had with that and I would prefer you don't make assumptions. STOP WITH THE FLAMING I DON'T WANT TO SEE IT.

 

Totally agree with you, but the city i'm in is lacking jobs big time. I know that getting a job will solve the problem because I won't need to budget my herb so much. Getting the job is the problem, especially with my lack of motivation due to poppers. Thanks for the feedback.

 

Lol
