If people with AS are drug counsellors, then fantastic.

I believe it would be more repsonsible to direct someone to real help, rather than stroke my ego and 'pretend' I knew anything about drug abuse and gave potentially misleading or libelous advice.

Far from being judgemental, I believe it would be highly irresponsible for anyone here to advise on drug health unless they were qualified to do so. When you have a member who has a genuine health issue, they should be encouraged to contact he appropriate trained and qualified professionals.

Apart from the fact the topic is about an illegal issue.

I believe that the OP knows he is not being counseled by professionals, and your advice that he contact a professional is very valid.

Thank you.

I would suggest an AS site is not the place you are going to get your answers about the dangers of illicit drug use.
In fact, I find it surprising that people aren't allowed to swear here, yet are allowed to discuss illegal activities.
I suggest you contact an appropriate addiction agency in your area in regard to safe drug usage and the risks.


You have a good point here. Besides the obvious "see a doctor" advice, the OP might better be served by posting this on a forum elsewhere, where there are more people struggling with addiction problems. Judging by the posts on WP, few people here struggle with drug addiction problems.
Please do not take this the wrong way. I think people should post anything they want here, but you might get better advice elsewhere.

Also,
Swearing isn't necessary to make a point, especially a written point. I rarely swear for that reason, it dilutes the meaning of what you are saying. On this forum you can use bold, italic, and all-caps, if you need to shout your point.
