Yes, I do drugs. I smoke weed, I take pills, I love alcohol.

My boyfriend does everything he can get his hands on, which I'm basically fine with. Until he decided he wanted to do Triple C's and Duster constantly. I get trying drugs. I really do. Just not shit that's going to kill your ass.

I can't fucking get him to understand. He knows I take pills and kind of worries about me, but I can handle myself. I don't go over my limits and I don't take more than 30-40mgs of lortabs. That's it.

I get that he's worried about me, but I'm not going to fucking kill myself. He does Duster which can fucking kill you the first time you use and it only gets worse as you continue. He fucking knows this shit, and it goes the same with Triple C's. I just can't fucking get it into his head that he needs to fucking quit. I'm fine with basically every other drug outside of pretty heavy shit.  

How in the fuck do I get him to stop doing Duster and Triple C's? I've told him what they do and he's still fucking stupid.

Duster? Are you serious, he must be brain dead since that does NOT get you high, all it does it lack your brain of oxygen killing brain cells...then triple c's another brain dead move probably motivated by the kids he's around at school who are also ignorant on the matter.

A lost cause, all you can do is give the facts and watch him go goofy like Duster will do to people. The best I can explain it, one day there normal and the next there....goofy.

e, acid, mushrooms, opiates, weed, alcohol etc. can all be used in a responsible manner if pure. duster inhalants and all otc drugs (with the exception of dextromethorphan) are pretty much retarded they are dangerously unpredictable and foolish things to do.

the only hard drug thats really dumb is cocaine because of its price and short lived addicting high

also i dont think you're being a hypocrite at all

He's not going to learn the gravity of this until he seriously fucks up with these drugs in some manner.

He sounds too stubborn right now to be taking anyone's feelings/concerns/well-being into account. Including his own. You can keep on telling him to stop, or you can not put up with it anymore.

Vicodin Posted at 2:01 pm on Jan. 2, 2009
I'm gonna try to talk to him again. I mean, I'm not trying to be a hardass about it. I just want him to lay off certain "drugs". I'm fine with opiates, weed, alcohol, etc. Just not shit like Duster. If that doesn't work I'll set an ultimatum or just end it all together until he gets some fucking sense.

He understands the implications of doing Duster. He actually sat and explained it to me after I screamed at him for it. Then last night he went out and did it again, then texted me saying how shitty he felt.

His friends aren't going to help. They do Duster too, and sometimes Triple C's along with him. They don't do it as frequently, but they still don't really know any real facts about drugs. I'm the one that keeps these kids from overdosing most of the time.

I think everyone else that has replied doesn't really get this. I have no desire to quit, and I have no desire for him to quit. We both love drugs and we love doing drugs together.

I'm just really scared of him using stupid drugs. The ones that are going to kill him. I guess I just need to keep saying that and if he doesn't listen I really can't live with that.


I understand you don't want to quit.  I'm not trying to tell you too.  I guess I'm just totally baffled as to why someone would want to use Duster when they very well know what it can do to you.  I mean, I'm pretty liberal when it comes to drug use.  I'd try (or at least bask before cleaning up a bit) just about anything....but shit like Duster has always been on my NO list.  

I wish I could make him listen to you...but I mean if he isn't willing to, you can't force him.  Do you think it could be one of those things where he's doing it to kind of prove something?  Like that he still has some independence or something?  That might be kind of out-there.  Just something that came to mind.

I guess what I would probably do in this situation is set an ultimatum.  Tell him to choose between doing that shit or having you.  I know that's pretty tough to do, and maybe it's not what you want to do.  But I know I wouldn't be able to date someone knowing that they're playing Russian Roulette with drugs all the time.

tell him to get his ass out of middle school and do some real drugs. Honestly, dusters and triple c's are for people who don't just get ahold of actual illegal drugs, and it's sad because the legit ones won't kill you as quickly as huffing shit.

I'M NOT QUITTING.

I don't want him to quit either. Fuck that shit.

I just don't want him to die.


Haha, okay. Well, you both keep doing drugs. And when one of you dies, maybe the other will develop some sense.

i see...ok inhalants smell gross so i dont understand how people can stand doing it a lot, and why would you take cough medicine to get high or drunk? its gross


You don't smell it, you inhale it.

For the record, never do air duster. It can kill you, in a heartbeat.

Okay, you said you do other drugs, and you love alcohol. People can easily die from hard drugs, and from alcohol poisoning. It may not be as fast, but you will die from drugs if continually used.

I don't know what a Duster is. But all I can say is, instead of you both doing drugs together, and getting into dangerous situations, maybe use your love and power to quit drugs all together?

As far as getting him to stop, I think the best thing you can do is try to make him understand that he's not only putting himself in danger with that stuff. He's really making you worry about him. If he understand the implications of doing Duster, I have noooooo clue why he would want to keep doing that. I mean, that's really one of the stupidest 'drugs' to abuse. Maybe get some of his friends to talk to him about it at well? Anything to make him see that there are a lot of people really concerned about his drug use.

He understands the implications of doing Duster. He actually sat and explained it to me after I screamed at him for it. Then last night he went out and did it again, then texted me saying how shitty he felt.

His friends aren't going to help. They do Duster too, and sometimes Triple C's along with him. They don't do it as frequently, but they still don't really know any real facts about drugs. I'm the one that keeps these kids from overdosing most of the time.

It would be best if you both try to atleast stop and do other things. Maybe that will get him and you to stop?
HuffleHaire Posted at 1:44 pm on Jan. 2, 2009
It's a hard fact to get through. People won't hear what they don't want to hear.

You could always give him an ultimatum, but that often bites you in the ass..

The best you can do is tell him how you feel, about how you're insanely worried, and be there for him if he falls.
