Why not just do drugs...

Shooting codeine? what a noob.

Being rich and dieing from APAP toxicitiy? What a noob....

 

I've never found a drug that causes pure happiness and bliss.

Some drugs can be used to numb the mind and body, but this isn't happiness. This is just avoiding pain.

Some drugs can be used as tools to search for bliss and happiness (hallucinogens come to mind) but but ultimately the bliss comes from a place much deeper than the drug itself.

Some drugs can enhance every experience, but the experiences are truly whats making you happy, not the drug.

And then you have the drugs that take over your entire life, that take you to heaven and promise bliss and happiness with the high only to throw you straight to hell with addiction and withdrawal.

Happiness is a temporary state. Life is not meant to be lived in a perpetual state of anything. Grief and sadness are just as important to experience in life as happiness and bliss. Drugs can help you hide from grief and sadness for a short while, but you can't avoid negative emotions forever.

 

Soma, duh...

 

As this is posted in the hedonism section, I will posit that you consider the real hedonistic approach to what you are saying. True, there are primal things that can make one feel good all the time, being comfortable, having sex all the time, and having great food and drinks all day, drugs and alcohol, but these are pleasurable pursuits of a basic kind. The hedonistic approach would suggest there are higher pleasures then these, and that knowledge, for example, provides a higher pleasure then food or sex, which with to much repetition can become dissatisfying. For the same reason that if you ate your favorite food for every meal you would become sick of it, the same would happen if you did the same drug all the time, it would lose its magic and not satisfy you, or would start to bring negative side effects that would displace the pleasure you would get from it.

 

The trick is to fly up and down consistently

 

Opiates make you feel free of any cares or any problems (if you wanna go down that path)

 

The answer to OP is called MXE. Yeah, I went there. :2thumbsup:
Never had a bad time on it and probably never will - that's all I can ask.

Reality is overrated, drugs enhance the experience.

 

Knock yourself out!

Edit: What am I wasting my time posting for!?

 

So ya'll going to do drugs "substance" to escape from reality?

 

Why not?

That's why most people watch TV and movies. Or play video games. Or listen to certain genres of music...

 

nope.

 

lol that echo pellinore is talking about,he tried telling me i was wrong...so i cut his tongue out. haven't been happier since.lol jk anyone with that echo is feeling guilt pushed on them by their upbringing,religion,social stigma ect. i dont think drugs can keep you blissed out all the time,but it's a part of the puzzle. there's obviously more to life than being high, but ppl like who started this thread(and myself) find those other things to be made better by the drugs we take. for me its not escaping reality,everything around me is every bit as real to me when high as when sober. i love being high,its my passion,my hobby,and my mistress.the only thing i love more is my girl,and she's the exact same way.i hate life i honestly do,the only things that bring me joy are her and my mistress,witch are always best in a three-way.i will agree that being blitzed 24/7 takes the sparkle away,but thats why i do my drugs in cycles because they offer different pleasures(and i need to keep down on tolerency if i plan to do this till i die,witch i do)

 

its an escape. feels good at the time but the problem are still there when you come down. nothing wrong with a toke or two.

 

it's only like that when you do drugs to relieve whatever problems you're having in life. people who do drugs to alter their consciousness don't have this issue. that's the big difference.

 

i have actually had several breakthroughs emotionally that helped me get past things i wouldnt have otherwise survived.my mind has so many filters and hurtles to jump for me to be able to process my feelings(i've had a hard knock life,and carry alot of baggage,but find it hard to even ponder solving them in my sober state)and a second hand effect of my love for drugs is knocking down those filters and hurtles so i can not only let myself think about those things,but talk them out and get them off my chest.that dont happen everytime im high dont take it that way,but it does happen when i need it too and its impossible for me do alone. i'd like to point out that that self medication is a second hand reason for my drug use,the first would be because i love every aspect of being high,in the same way you might love a close friend

 

Isn't it why people drink alkohol and smoke weed all the time? Drugs are making them feel better, so they take them.

Coffe also makes you feel better, some people couldn't live with it. Can we say they have given up reality of being tired and are living in false world where they are full of energy?

 

Well , Ive pretty much stayed away from drugs other than playing for a few short months with meth...stupid , I know. I was always afraid of maybe doing my body or mind permanent damage.

 

I think the trick is accepting happiness is not a static thing. So besides the fact that even the high of the greatest drug has a come down you will also be aware at some point that you fucked things up by doing too much drugs and you're not in fantasyland but in the gutter crawling in some dog poo.
