Beat a Drug Addiction?
Question by Haylie B: Beat a drug addiction?
I am a 24 year old female and I go out every weekend to trance events and also in my local town.
When I go out I take a lot of drugs. Cocaine mostly, pills, MDMA, ketamine, speed, methadrone etc.
I am not ‘addicted’ to any particular drugs, in the week I can take it or leave it but at the weekend I feel like I NEED to take something in order to have a good time. Especially at trance events where I know I’ll be dancing for 7-8hours and all my friends will be on pills.
I want to stop doing drugs full stop but don’t want to go to my GP and ‘talking to Frank’ just isn’t going to cut it. I know they will just tell me the harm I’m causing myself (which will not work).
Has anyone overcome this by themselves?
