I was given Cocaine without knowing it.

Someone gave me some tic tacs and supposedly they had Cocaine in them, It only got me high for about 2 hours but I had a horrible headache and I was useless for the rest of the day. I don't really want to feel that way again so I don't know why I'm posting this, I guess I just want to share. I'll just stick to my Vodka...

Drugs of unknown origin and substance are always a crap shoot... particularly given out casually and "impregnated" on candy or other inert ingredients. The issue for me when in my teens was any substance that took me out of feeling like me was a good starting point for the evening. In hind sight, I wan't moving toward something as much as I was moving away from feeling like me. So whether candy coated drugs or vodka, ultimately as long as it took me away from myself I was on board for the ride. Many years later it earned me a seat in a 12 step recovery program where i learned how to change how i felt without using chemicals. "Relief from Self" is often the goal for teens, particularly ones who feel "different" from their peers. Obviously that is an issue for trans teens to be aware of...

Wow Michelle, well stated. I was on board for all the same reasons. Vodka, gin, moonshine, Orange 99, Wild Turkey 101, Bacardi 151, Everclear and Anhydrous Ethanol my neighbor used to steal from NASA. They were all my best friends. The people offering them were just the carry handle. It the Physician's Desk Reference said, Side Effects: Do not take with alcohol. Ooo! Pop those and kiss the bottle and I was free of me again! The vortex spiral down? I never saw all that coming, when I peered down in the opening of that very first Vodka bottle. Then I was just blind runnin crazy! Wild wasn't wild enough!

May I set my coffee down here? I want to sit beside you in the recovery meeting. Hug and serenity. "Hi, I'm JodyAnn, free at last!!!"

Rainbow, My name is Charlie and i'm another of the folks who got too involved in leaving my mind. Being trans often gives us the ability to hide and lie. That comes in handy when drugs take over and life looses all of its pleasure. I think you might do better to stick with Vodka. That was my drug of choice. I got to a point where they needed to open a new distillery and i was pushing them for another. It just sort of snuck up behind me and then i couldn't escape. Watch out for any of the mind alternatives. Spirit is hopefully found in things spiritual not in the bottled types.

Hugs,

Charlie

The good news is that you didn't the full effect of the drug. This is because depending on how a person takes a drug is how much of the drug gets into their bloodstream.

Digesting a drug actually only causes a small portion to be absorbed. This is why serious drug users either snort, inhale, or inject.

The further good news is because of this, it seems only a headache is the worst of the withdraw you will have and you likely don't have to worry about craving it later.

Vodka? At 15? Alcohol is a drug too. A serious one that I have personally seen destroy so many lives. It breaks my heart to think of someone starting to throw away life so young.

Another thing is that once you really start drinking you stop maturing and maturing is what makes life get better as we learn to seek answers and learn to handle our lives and emotions. All that about life getting better some day isn't so if you start drinking heavily now. It will pretty much stay the same as it is now only with a different cast of characters as time goes by.

Wish I had some way to really get through about what can be and what it will be instead if you become an addict-an alcoholic is an addict as much as anyone on cocaine or any other drug. And starting drinking this early makes that very likely. But I suppose I sound like I am just preaching instead of grieving for you and all that you risk. All the pain you will inflict not only on yourself but on those who care for you. I sincerely hope and pray that does not happen but most drinkers think it won't be them till too late. No one ever sets out to become an addict and ruin their life.

My heart goes out to you

I'm happy that all of you saw the light before it was too late.

Alcohol and drugs affected some of of family members and relatives.

It's very important to not be afraid of who we are. It takes time to find out

where we fit in but the journey is well worth it.

Doubtful that it was cocaine. Cocaine is currently one of the most expensive drugs to procure in this country, even in small amounts. Nobody gives that kind of thing away for free. Though it could have been any number of stimulants, from meth to adderal, who knows. Sorry to hear about the headache~

I concur in what you said about not being cocaine. The effects of a line of cocaine can be felt for about 30-40 minutes then the down comes in. I know this for a fact having snorted about a kilometer and a half of the stuff over 6 years... And 40 minutes if it's snorted. Ingested, it was probably Meth... Cocaine ingested won't procure much effects...

Anyway, please stay on a "relatively" straight path... It's normal, I think, at your age to "explore" different ways but do think a bit, just a small bit about the future. Most people experimented and didn't stick on substances. Some do feel the need though to evade from their world as they see it. Read my signature and think about it. The world is what you make of it...

I'm not here to preach but, being there and done that and gotten way too much t-shirts, I can assure you that it's not the best way to abuse substances. Any substances...

I feel, really, for you and would have liked to be there and shake your hand, take a walk and chat with you. Being straight sober for more than 6 years, I can finally deal with myself and who am I.

If you ever need to communicate, I'm there for you.

Godspeed !

      As far as I'm aware, he wasn't -- he just sometimes wore skirts, which was why it was a question in the first place.   In my opinion, part of that is because of the way press spares attention on issues like that. As a bit of a true crime nut and what I see: Child predator cases' (and cases of a sexual nature in general) press focus on those with an AMAB perpetrator generally, and very rarely are AFAB perpetrators given much press time or even getting tried due to a whole bunch of issues I'm not gonna get into. Because of this, when you see these types of cases and a boy is the victim, it's almost always a queer person who is the one who committed a crime that gets press. Therefore, with the amount of cases seen with this type of perpetrator (and due to the fact "99% of queer people are not sexual criminals" doesn't attract eyes), the human brain can kind of naturally makes an association with it. It's not right, but it's also a fault I think falls partially on the media.   That's all my opinion, though!   This is extra confusing to me, as a feminine man is usually viewed as gay. If someone is refusing the acknowledge the existence of trans people, then gay would be the societal connection that comes after, I think. So, that sorta implies that trans women wouldn't be interested in women in the first place by those assumptions? Of course, trans lesbians exist (most trans women I know like women, actually), but it's a little ridiculous to me that people will deny trans people's existence, call all feminine AMAB people gay, and say that trans people are looking to peep all in the same breath.   Wow, this was a lot longer of a response than I was planning to write--

      For one thing, the practice of putting into office wholly unqualified people simply because of racial, sexual or national characteristics.  It is no accident that Karine is a Haitian immigrant, Black and lesbian.  Kamala Harris is a Black female. Pete Buttigieg is gay.  Often you find that Biden explicitly stated that this is why he hired them, not because of competence, but because they checked so many boxes on his little list.  It makes a mockery of people and is a disservice to the US.

      I am not sure why people are in favor of unaccountable agencies with bloated budgets and wasteful spending.

      What about it?

      Hey girl  I had a problem like you happen to me also. In my first year of estrogen I had a period where my level were good then they got really bad where my testosterone spike high.  I felt like you with all that disforia coming hard. Our bodies need time to adjust. The process is a real pain in the beginning. It levels out eventually and you don't even think about it. Hang in there hugs

      Biden's woke agenda?

      I wonder if there will be law enforcement procedural shows coming this fall. I can imagine Law and Order: Genital Crimes Unit, or perhaps, FBI: Domestic Genitalia. Then again, maybe they will dedicate a CSI program about the dedicated members of the Oklahoma State Police Genital Screening Unit. Good to know that those Oklahomans have their priorities squared away.

      Protections? Well, when they mandate that some who is transgender can get facial and genital electrolysis paid as it is essential to affirming care, or when they mandate and pay for facial feminization surgery, speech therapy/voice affirmation surgery, I will believe that the order is effective. One of biggest hurdles for many transgender individuals is the cost of care. I remember when my one insurance company tried to say that my speech therapy and voice surgery were "cosmetic". I remember when they blocked paying for my facial surgery. I remember the fight I had to get electrolysis. These procedures could save someone's life if the procedures help the individual successfully transition, and are no longer misgendered.

      I don't think it should be.  Nor do I see Project 2025 as pushing Christian nationalism.

      The agencies are supposed to work for him.  The problem, as conservatives found out in Trump 1, was they will ignore the president and do their own thing.  The agencies are supposed to be under his control.   Congress delegated some of its law making authority to the agencies, which is another problem.   The bloated federal government needs to be trimmed.  Dept Education is worthless - test scores have dropped since it was instituted in the Carter administration consistently, and it is currently implementing Biden's woke agenda more than doing anything else.

      I hope to eventually wear a suit for dance but don't know what exactly to look for. I feel like jumpsuit is safe option but I have been interested in wearing button up and formal pants. Is there a certain brand i should look for or sites I should look at for tips? My mom is not exactly keen on me wearing too masc clothing like suits just yet but is okay with jumpsuits. Also is there hair styling tips availible, my hair looks like image below. I might be able to get shorter haircut like pixie but am not sure yet.

      It’s never been about him, but he is the Presidential nominee for the Presidency that starts in…2025. I don’t see a lot of conflation that this is a “Trump doctrine”, it a doctrine that benefits him surely, but it is a plan to instill crony governance and enact very Christian conservative (if not purely Christian nationalist) “order” on the country. If you don’t see this as the Right doubling down on Big G government, I don’t know what to tell them. Getting rid of agencies and giving the authority directly to the Executive isn’t shrinking government. It’s consolidation power.

      It is the made up ideology they believe trans people are pushing on the world, those “poor young girls who are being coerced into believing they are men” and the “perverts who put on dresses and think they’re girls”. The anti-LGBTQ+ movement came up with the term. Being trans = you believe in trans ideology/transgenderism, supporting trans people = the same.   In the end anyone that acts on or thinks gender is anything but what is in your pants is a “transgenderist”, why not make it a word if it’s not, there is no real grey area. Unless you acknowledge there is transgenderism, but use your knowledge to “correct it”.  So I guess there could be transgenderist conversion “therapists”.  Face it, we deface the America they want. Land of the Free and Home of the Brave? I think being out and queer is pretty brave. And freedom shouldn’t just be for those who push a narrow “Christian ideology” as the “true” governing model.

      Rants are not a problem.  My favorite hobby! :)   What's out there is bad enough that I wonder why some people feel they need to embellish it.  Be alert.   Some of this will need to be fought in court if they try to implement it. If people are out to get me, paranoia is justified.  And this may not be the only document.   Abby
