It’s good to have a balanced ego. Something about a good chat with an experienced gearhead or people involved in the harm reduction space just does it for me though.When I was 15? Yeah. I thought I was cool because I used drugs. I made them my entire personality.
When I got older I realized it's anything but cool. I have a neutral outlook on drugs. They aren't cool, but I don't look down on people for using them either.
All it takes to transition from delta to sigma is to truly not give a shit.Everyone knows that using drugs makes you look cool if you play the role of the sigma male.
I've made the mistake of mentioning my past drug use with people such as coworkers. They seem friendly or relatable at first, but quietly judge you then talk behind your back. It's not a mistake I will make again.I wouldn't say cool, but more relatable.
There's a whole part of my experience I have to basically never mention in conversations with non-users, especially if they're very anti-drug, because I know they'd immediately judge me differently. With those who use or have used there isn't that same social barrier and I feel I can be more genuine.
This is why I like it here.I've made the mistake of mentioning my past drug use with people such as coworkers. They seem friendly or relatable at first, but quietly judge you then talk behind your back. It's not a mistake I will make again.
It kinda sucks because it often leaves a big hole in my social compatibility or how much I can talk about myself in general.

Many times I have mentioned past drug use with coworkers (etc.), I have discovered later that they thought I was high or hung over on days I was just tired or sleep deficient. This has been during times I was not consuming any drugs and had not for yearsI've made the mistake of mentioning my past drug use with people such as coworkers.

Yea you are definitely coming around to the lay of the land in the real world. Not only do they blame all of your short comings on your supposed drug use or lack of but also they spead hate like wildfire. When that's happened to me I've found it very beneficial to cut and run. Cause you can't change you and they can't stop being them.Many times I have mentioned past drug use with coworkers (etc.), I have discovered later that they thought I was high or hung over on days I was just tired or sleep deficient.
