Xpander Posted December 16 Report Share Posted December 16 never touched drugs in clubs...hardly ever drink....purity is the way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxyroxy20 Posted December 16 Report Share Posted December 16 I never touched drugs period. I'm always sober, no drinks either. The only thing i need in clubs to keep me up is hard beats. If it gets trancy, techno, deep house, then I tend to get tired and leave, cuz I am very picky when it comes to music in clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM Posted December 16 Report Share Posted December 16 the best advice I can give you is to surround yourself with good people.... make sure you are around people who are responsible and have a good head on their shoulders when you go out...

liteflyr Posted December 16 Report Share Posted December 16 Originally posted by xpander never touched drugs in clubs...hardly ever drink....purity is the way to go amen to that bro i never touch anything inside a club. all i need are my dancers and some good music, used to be anything with a beat but now i need some harder stuff, but still i dance to practically anything. partying sober and still being able to have as great a time as your friend who's rollin is definitely something to be proud of.if you feel like you need something to have fun, go ahead, no big deal. personally, i'm proud of the fact that i'm clean everytime i go.it's really up to your own personal choice.

weyes Posted December 17 Report Share Posted December 17 went out sober last thursday - felt amazing and not as though the night was missing a thing. it is all mind over matter. the energy is in the music, in the crowd, and in you - sometimes you just have to let it come out on its own .

barvybe Posted December 17 Report Share Posted December 17 Yo - i hit Amazura last night stone sober in all senses and had an amazing night. Seeing all the kids rolling face at the UFO convention was trip enough Half my crew was sober, half not, and we all had a great time. Just be comfortable hanging out with people who are doing otherstuff and its all good - drugs and alcohol don't give u a good time...they give u a different time.

romy20 Posted December 17 Report Share Posted December 17 Yeah I've been goin out sober alot lately. Last nite I went to twirl and then to sf and i was completely sober, and had a great time too!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty19 Posted December 17 Report Share Posted December 17 like blaznny, i admit: i also find it hard to go out without the influence of some substance. i don't smoke cigs and i rarely drink, so substances are my choice of vice. i don't feel any more comfortable taking stacker 2, or any of those energy pills/drinks. so basically, i don't go out if i don't want to put myself in a position where i will be under the influence of anything.but that's just me. i think admitting that you have a dependency or not is the first step, and go from there. set limits for yourself (ex, don't take more than x amount of pills a month), try not to be too jealous of those that are not sober, and surround yourself with supportive, sober people.good luck, and trust me. drugs are a phase, you will find that naturally over time you slow down. i used to drop twice a week, but i'm down to about once every 2 months.

tottallyoff Posted December 17 Report Share Posted December 17 I totally agree with BerVibe. It all depends on the people you are with. I always try to have a good time weither I am rolling or sober. The sober part has been happening a lot lately and I am not regretting not rolling my brains out. I always have fun out. Dancing, people watching, chilling - better on a sober head, I think.

nec Posted December 17 Author Report Share Posted December 17 i think that's one of the things i've been worried about, being jealous of the others who are on things, but then like the most of you suggested to surround myself with good caring friends or just good ol' peeps is a good idea, def. :tongue: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can party when I'm sober, I cannot, however enjoy myself to the extent that I want to (mainly dancing) without the use of various controlled substances . . . . I think this stemms from the fact that I'm overweight, and have been my entire life . . When I was growing up I had to shield myself from the abuse that I was taking both at school and at home, so learned very quickly to be on guard all the time. . My whole universe revolved around my not trying to stand out in the crowd. . I was always the guy in the back who had wonderful ideas, but never spoke up because I felt that people were laughing at me . . As I got older I realized that people really don't care what the fuck you're doing, as long as it doesn't infringe badly on what they're doing, and yes there will always be cruel people who feel the need to put others down, but for the most part, be yourself . . THe problem with me, is that I cannot erase soo many years of being on guard . . It's almost like I forgot how to be "me" anywhere other than in the safety of my own solitude . . constantly holding my tongue and stifiling my thoughts is the way that I believe that I should act when I'm with other people . . Sounds horrible, but that's what I've been conditioned to believe . . . . Knowing all this, I think you can see why I got into E in the first place . . It takes me to a place that I can never will myself to get even remotely close to in my reality . . I can say anything and do anything that my little heart desires, without immediately becoming self consious of the outcome . . In short . . I love it, I feind for it, but I realize that all I'm doing is exaggerating routine emotional response to the point where it WILL overcome any self-conditioning that I have inflicted on myself . . Drinking just doesn't produce the same effect on me, so It's never a good substitute (combine that with the fact that alcohol has a very dirty stain in my perception because of other factors in my life, and you can see that they'res really nothing that can loosen me up . .). . I can dance, talk with complete strangers and shamelessly trainspot the DJ, rawking on every drop and break and lull in the music .. That's a place I can get to without the chemicals, but only in the safety of my own space, with no one else around . . .. Maybe one day I'll find a way to overcome. . one day .. . .

snarfgirl22 Posted December 17 Report Share Posted December 17 you can have just as good a time sober and the best part is you can watch everybody who is fucked up and that tends to just make me so happy along with like two ginseng pills so i can stay strong all night;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
