Inhaling

[Magus]

So, we all know what inhaling is, now kids, don't we?

In a place like this, where expatriates aren't getting their goodies easily, they tend to go off do a lot of thing to get their high, cheaply.

My first experience with inhaling is when I was 9. My father tried to fix a chair with a super glue that emitted a very strong and pungent odor. I liked that odor, and as I curious child, I looked up the glue.

I opened the glue top, and started inhaling it. Things were went hazy, as if I have lost connection with the world for a brief moment. Then found myself backed up by the wall, just looking the wall on the opposite side. It was turning from left to right, and again left to right, as if I had spinned around.

I stood up fast, the effect went a way. I hurriedly put back the cap and the glue to where they belonged. And I was like "wow".

I did start sniffing the glue once in a while, when parents aren't around and grandmother isn't looking. I just put a small pea-sized pase in the cap and started sniffling the glue. It didn't give me a strong high, but it give me this brief and faint out of body or lost connection with the senses feeling.

I stopped, somehow. It didn't feel good in all the way. My eyes started to get irritated and filled with tears. My lungs started to burn. I still know the brand, it's Pattex.

Well, I don't know why I am sharing with you guys about this now. Most probably because I came back to it. Sniffing small glues that we keep around here. And those from the cans are stronger from those that are stored in tubes.

Also, when I started using pen, we also starting using white-outs. You should see my face along with the teachers when I was sniffing the correction fluid. Funny days at school. :)

And paint(there is some from the house Janitor), I scoop up and put them in a plastic bag, and I start inhaling from them. You don't get a real high, but the smell is nice.

And you know what's my favourite place to visit? The petroleum station; boy do I love the smell of kerosene and benzene.

All of my inhaling probably have damaged my lungs a lot more than my cigarette smoking habits(which I have quit), probably lost a braincell or two.

I really like to try gas duster and jenkems!

So, do you have a history in inhaling solvents or propellents and the like? Are you interested in it? Are you against its abuse?

Post your thought then!

I generally find pleasure in the smell of things that give people highs, but instead of giving me a high I get a headache. Which becomes a migraine. So while as a child I made Dad leave the window open while pumping gas so I could enjoy the smell, I didn't get high, per se. I was also an art class rubber cement inhaler, at least until they changed the scent to something utterly disgusting that gave me a headache EVEN FASTER. But damn, when they used to tell us "don't smell the rubber cement, put the cap on right after you use it!" I was always the first to unscrew that sucker and smell it.

So yeah, I've "inhaled". But not to the point of a high/haziness/euphoria, more to the point of a migraine. I stopped doing it after I exited my childhood years.

I've huffed that computer dust spray before, but it's not worth it because for me the high doesn't last long enough. Like it's not even a minute. I've learned from a friend that Jenkem actually isn't as nasty as you think it is, but I'm not planning on trying it.

Also, good Intervention episode.

Me and my friend used to sniff glue bottles in class. We were really crazy kids back then. We only did it out of boredom, not really to get a high off it.

[Charleigh]

Ive sniffed glue before. Was shit.
Spray cans are better.

I have no interest in drugs beyond Alcohol and Caffeine.

[Ambrosia]

It's dangerous as Hell to sniff anything. It kills quicker then...Hell, I dunno. But it does kill really fast. It can be your first time, third time, 100th time, and it can just up and kill you. Just like, "Ohh glue *sniff* Hmm--*falls over dead*"

Anyways.

I have. Used to do it a lot when I was a sophomore with my friend behind the computer desks.

I've never done it because I'm terrified of Sudden Sniffing Death Syndrome.

[ShatteredWings]

i'll admit i've done it. never tried it with spraycans though, i don't totally get how that one would work out.
drug of choice is still cafiene though.

LOL Wow, it surprises me people actually do this. I really don't see the point in it. For me, if I tried it, I'd probably be disappointed if I got that low and desperate. If I wanted to get high, I'd honestly just get some weed or get fucked up on some other somewhat hallucinogenic. There's nothing appealing to me about sniffing glue.

If I wanted to get high, I'd honestly just get some weed or get fucked up on some other somewhat hallucinogenic.There are cultures where people never seen weed, or it is very hard to get weed, not to mention the expensively made chemical hallucinogens which is yet again much more expensive to get than a glue in a supermarket.

Substance that are inhaled is what I call as "Poor man's drug".
