And that is why we must never uptake cannabis in our lungs but always through our tummies. Yuck.

I estimate a 24 hour round of the finest weed can't comprnsate for that 5 second flash while pushing the plunger in. And even when you know its killing you and your friends, all you want is to feel better again. Its a deadly spiral, that I GTFO in time. Sometimes I still dream of using again after 15 years. Ain't gonna happen. I would rather die. (August 15, 2017 at 5:54 pm)LastPoet Wrote: Its a deadly spiral, that I GTFO in time. Sometimes I still dream of using again after 15 years. Ain't gonna happen. I would rather die. Yeah, that's why I kinda feel sorry for her and want her to get help. I understand a lot of how addiction works and I know how even when you know it's tearing you up, you're still chasing that high. I'm glad you're able to get to the point where you can say "I know I want this, but I also know it's destroying me so I can't do it." Thing is, I doubt she's going to reach that point any time soon, or that she'll kill herself before she does. I don't like seeing anyone destroy themselves, even if it's a crackwhore who destroyed a good chunk of my apartment and stole from me. Regardless, I gotta protect myself first and as much as I want her to be helped, I can't sacrifice my own well being to make it happen. I have another friend who is more familiar with drug culture who told me this is kinda what junkies do: they look for someone who is naive or who doesn't know street drugs that well, and then they take advantage of them. I suspect that happened with Violet (not to mention she took full advantage of some of Violet's other issues) and it started out that way with Lee and I, but it didn't take us long to see something was wrong, even if we didn't know exactly what it was.

Um, you wrestled her to the floor after she pulled a gun on you? Wow.
Also, you and your boyfriend need to get some gloves on before handling all that waste and rubbish from her room. -Teresa

Wow. 1) When she pulled the gun on me, we were close enough to each other that stepping towards her actually made it more difficult for her to point the gun at me. So I figured if I get in close, I could probably wrestle it away from her, but if I stepped back, she would have an easier time shooting at me. Fortunately, I was right and wrestling a crackhead..... well, in all honesty, does anyone think it's going to be difficult to wrestle a crackhead to the ground? I've got over 100 lbs on her, not to mention I get a lot more physical activity than her and when you throw in the damage smoking has done to her physically, a physical fight is no contest. 2) Yeah, I'm honestly nervous just opening the door to her room. We got some of the stuff out of there; most of it we picked up very carefully, put in a garbage can which we proceded to dump into the dumpster. Getting rid of several blankets and what remained of her clothes really helped reduce the odor in there, but it's not completely better. We're going to have to decide whether a few of the things in there are worth saving. The couch would be nice if not for the fact that crack whore stink is all over it and we found a really nice faux leaher coat that I'm seriously thinking of keeping. There's a night stand in the upper reaches of her closet and we may be able to use that. I don't think wood is going to absorb the stink the same way fabric will. The walls and the carpets are the biggest worry for me. Carpet shampooing will be the order of the day when we get that far and we're probably going to have to put a new coat of paint on those walls since she decorated them like she's a 13 year old girl on acid.

I would be worried about rodents hiding in that stuff with all the half eaten food.
