Drugs

DIRTYBUBBLENah dude little drug usage builds character no cap

CLQSmack the shit outta him, MDMA is a hard drug and codeine is an opiate ie painkillers. Weed is whatever

Samp20A good beating should do ay ?

Samp20@.FRY. Good to hear some experience with it thanks dude, the scary thing is parents already know, they were the ones who found the codeine and they cut his pocket money, have stopped him from using their cars, and are refusing to help him buy a car until he sorts his shit out, and he’s kinda just outright refusing to stop regardless, like if that ain’t gonna stop him what is lol

.FRY.I wish I could give you an answer for that, I know that's why you made this thread. I think the only thing that will stop him will be a scary experience or certain circumstances. Idk how close you are with him, but if you're someone he respects then I think doing what you can to convince him that ecstasy and painkillers are retarded would be a step in the right direction. Maybe send him some youtube drug stories or something.

SnowshoeThompsonThe real question is how does a 16 year old have a lean plug. I will buy the bottle if you can ship to the states

Samp20Lol I broke my collarbone back in 2017 and had about half a prescription bottle of codeine I never used. Then broke my wrist more recently and didn't use any at all, parents found the 2016 bottle in his room empty and the other bottle with not much left as well. Not sure what he was gonna do once it ran out but it's been dumped now anyway.

SnowshoeThompsonDaww that stuff goes for up to a couple grand a bottle here. I know some SoundCloud rapper nerds that would be all over it

Titus69Damn dude, I remember a few years back someone here’s sister was also becoming troublesome with weed and other shit. You really gotta get his head right without him trying to rebel, so many friends had strict parents and tried to smoke daily and just got caught and caught cause they’re being sneaky and dumb. Try to at least get him on the weed only idk, he won’t overdose on it but might slow his head down.

DIRTYBUBBLELet him know there’s a time and a place for everything. And that place is college

NU3R0_PHYS1C1STNz has a terrible drug culture. I say just teach him harm reduction - like not taking multiple 200mg doses of mdma 5x in one night etc

DolanReloadedThat was from south park right?
i remember thag line but i cant remember where its from.

DolanReloadedBest thing you can do is talk to him and let him know not to combine drugs and for him to tell you whatever he is taking and you wont come down on him but you just want to know what he is taking. I would tell him to do his homework (read about the risks involved with taking these drugs) and make sure he isnt just taking some pill or drug without knowing what it is.

I think pure molly is one of the safer drugs you can take and there isnt as much addiction potential with it.

codeine is i think over the counter in nz so if he doesnt graduate on to more powerful opiates and sticks to just otc codeine that would probably be ok, but you def need to make sure he knows how incredibly addictive opiates are.

the reason i say its ok if he sticks to codeine is because its pretty hard to od on codeine and if he is craving it he can just go to the convenience store and buy a box of codeine for a few bucks and feel better. You dont want him to graduate to stronger opiates though, because then he will eventually be selling all his shit or stealing his friends shit so he can buy expensive opiates like smack or fentanyl.

The best thing you can do is make sure he is well educated and well informed about the baggage that comes along with these drugs.

16 year olds are pretty smart, and as long as he isnt doing drugs to be self destructive, education will go a long way.

also if you can swing it i think it would be good to get him to see a therapist.

and dont beat the shit out of him. Conditional love is worthless. A good thing to do would be to tell him how much you love him and that if he died from an overdose it would destroy your entire life.

Samp20Luckily codeine is still prescription only in NZ so hopefully he won’t be getting his hands on any more to easily. I like what you’re saying about just making sure of the “baggage” and self destructiveness of it all I think that’ll definitely be worth clarifying with him and also reminding him that yeah it would destroy my entire life if worst case scenarios happened, I feel like he hasn’t really had anyone say that to him so far it’s just been my parents going like “you’re a fuckin idiot” sort of thing so that’s good I’ll probably mention that stuff in the convo, thanks man

DolanReloadedHow do you know about nz?

NU3R0_PHYS1C1STI live here?

Samp20NZ's drug culture is pretty fucked, I've had heaps of people here tell me oh don't worry about it everyone's doing it, and that I'm just overthinking cause I never did. Where in NZ you from?

Samp20perc30

Samp20the other night found codeine in his room he's "using to help sleep"

KEVTRONI didn't read most of the replies, so sorry if its been said already but this really stand out to me. He needs CODEINE to help him sleep? Theres plenty of other ways to "help you sleep" out there. It just doesn't add up to me, sounds more like a shitty excuse to get you off his back.

midwesternmaniacIf all else fails give him like 6 grams of mushrooms tell him it's an eighth , take some with him ,then yell at him until he understands you ,then hug him and tell him you love him ..


Jk don't do that ...unless ..

k-robcodeine makes me laugh uncontrollably its good shit. good molly's ok sometimes but i prefer ketamine. idk why even mention weed, drinking coffee is worse. you should let him do what he wants with his own body he's 16 and your brother not your 4 year old son.

little1337To be fair, 16 isn't really that old. I know I did stuff at 16 that makes me cringe today there's no way I really knew the pros and cons of doing drugs at that age. I could have just been dumb even for a 16 year old tho

midwesternmaniactalk to him . Drugs when you're young like that , ESPECIALLY OPIATES, can and WILL stunt emotional development . I've seen it . It's not good . Talk to him . Bypassing development at that age with drugs seems hard but it's easier to do that most realize . I'm sorry man .

DolanReloadedThis.

even smoking weed at age 16 is going to put a minor damper on your adult intelligence but for the most part weed isnt going to ruin a kids development.

opiates at age 16 are going to make a teenage kid go through a midlife crisis while they are a teenager, which, like you suggested, will impair their development during very important formative years in their life.

at least kids should be waiting until 18 before they experiment with anything harder than weed or shrooms etc...ideally the legal age should be 21 though

midwesternmaniacMy intuition tells me there's gonna be a lot of work In the future to help people who smoked away their crucial years of their 20s . For the people who really smoke a lot , and strong stuff too, all day every day , we don't know what that does. Doctor's used to say cigarettes were good for you and now look . Yeah it's not all doing and gloom but that plant plays tricks. The mental health effects are subtle often but the ways it can add to pre existing habits is scary .
