    So..within the last month I snorted about 30 grams of k...besides a few bladder infections, dried out nostrils, and the occasional bloody nose nothing else seemed to happen..now for the question..does anyone know if I just got lucky or should I be expecting a lot of shit to fuck up in me when I get a bit older? I haven't done any in about a month now, but I also noticed that I can't hold my hands still without them shaking like crazy..any advice or info helps, thanks.

    Wow. That sounds like a lot - 30 grams in a month. i have read elsewhere that ketamine is neurotoxic. Perhaps it is time to give it a rest if at all possible . . . ensure you do not do any at all for 6-8 weeks then re-assess. Have your symptoms abated, lessened, worsened, anything?

    Good luck.

    Peace & Love,

    they got better, my nose started healing up, and my bladder infections faded away. until i recently did a bunch of morphine (~300mg) in about two days, then i couldn't piss for days. each time i would try to piss it would take up to 3 hours of non stop trying. that only last for about 3 days though. i just love how k makes me feel and think, i came so close to dying on it a few times but it all made so much sense to me..

    i've never gone quite that far, probably snorted a collective 35w grams of ket over the past few years, and never gotten any physical harm aside from it helping me fuck up my diet. last month i did ket every day for a week, and didn't eat more than one large meal a day, which fucked up my metabolism for a while, but i've rebounded just fine.

    and some lasting sinus damage, but not too much worse than my sinuses were when i was a child.

    Ketamine is worth any future physical damage. I love everything about it, I even enjoy the yummy drips. Apparently there are chances of persistent flashes and streaks in your vision after long term use.

    "Mostly the dangers are more subtle - a type of psychic dependence on ketamine, paranoia, and egocentricism. Many people who use ketamine heavily experience a new perspective on the world which seems to be quite egocentric and conspiratorial. Ketamine can increase one's sense of connection between events, synchronicities, etc. This, when interpreted in certain common ways, can lead people to believe that external events revolve around themselves ("if that happened that way, and this happened this way, both of these things must be about me"), and then, further, that people and events are working in some heretofore unseen concert, which may be either sinister or just novel. Pay special attention to these kinds of thought patterns and ask the question: "what is most likely true" instead of "what may be true."

    Ketamine is a fucking pseudo-psychedelic bullshit drug to me...

    I officially feel I can say this after my friend who has used it for close to 8 years had some sort of stomach rupture and went to the hospital and was like fainting. He quit all other drugs before then so can't place the blame there and he is young and in fairly good health. plus like wild flowers little paragraph states it makes some people very egocentric like cocaine. Not to say I never had strong experiences on it but I'm so glad I don't use that shit anymore, i value it as much as coke really there is an itching in the back of mind' to do it again but I wont seek it anymore, way better drugs out there.

    ok , I've done the stuff plenty of times I know what its about. The fact we have 18-20 year old kids justifying their use while getting nose bleeds, bladder infections, and losing hair tells me something is not quite right about this stuff and hardly sounds like pot use.

    The effects are way more similar to alcohol to me up until the k hole'.

    I went on a heavy binge myself (nowhere near compared to you, but pretty heavy for my standards) - 10 grams within 3 weeks.

    thankfully I didn't any bladder infections, but near the end of the binge I had 2 nosebleeds and after I stopped I was a bit slower in thinking for a few weeks, but its gone down and I'm back to normal.

    I can see how crazy an addiction to could go if you had an endless amount - hell I don't even wanna imagine that:eek:

    If you're having problems like shaking (which, by the way, some people, myself included, always have, and which I've had before I ever used drugs) You should try stopping all drug use for a time. Give it a month or two, and then look at how you're feeling and any problems you're having. And after that, use some common sense about your dosing.

    a gram a day is not healthy. a gram in ONE day, a special day, is ok. But a gram every day is just full blown abuse, might as well be drinking a 40 every night or something, that is major major overuse of ketamine.

    Look, it's really simple. If you ever "need" to do it, stop. You've broken it. You need a break. OP you're probably going to be fine. If you had extended this type of use to 1-2 years then you could have induced permanent neurological damage, but after a month, if you really quit, I think everything should be fine. Just stay away for a long time, respect your body, you put it through hell. Multiple bladder infections in a month? multiple nosebleeds? fucking take a hint man :(

    so much addiction could be avoided if people just intelligently assessed their body and actually cared what it told them.

    That has got to be one of the most asinine statements I have read on HF.
