Just a curious talk about drugs and cosplay.

As much as I have gotten high during after parties of cons, I have never been high in costume. Thinking of doing this at a con in March with edibles. Also shrooms but i am not experinced with those yet>

>> No.7277556

Speaking from experience, hallucinogens at a con can be either really really awesome or absolutely awful.
You have to be in a pretty good state of mind or all the crazy costumes and loud people will really mess you up.
If you decide to go with anything harder than green, start in your hotel room and wait for the peak to pass before wandering off anywhere. Also, have someone sober to keep an eye on you

you should chill out anon. Its really not that big of a deal.

anyway, OP, I've only ever been high or drunk after the con activities and I also really want to experience the con itself while on something...probably the best idea would be rolling on molly. all the hugs.
I'm afraid of going to a con while tripping on acid or shrooms in case of someone's costume freaking me out or sending me on a bad trip.
as far as weed or alcohol go I was just never able to do it because of a person who was always in our group who is one of those annoying kinds of straight edge people...

Whilest I don't mind drugs all that much, being high as a kite doesn't seem like the most mature thing to do at a con.

Like >>7277637, it doesn't always end in fun. I wouldn't compare them to smokers though.

If you're getting high and you're off doing your own thing, fine by me. But it's the people who get obnoxious, loud, wild and downright annoying that ruin it for the rest of us.

So I'd rather have it that people would do it at home than at cons. Or that they understand that this is a con and not their private party.

I could never do it at a con. I always need very relaxing environments when on drugs, even with Mdma (On Mdma I am actually one of the few people who do not want to be constantly hugged. I like being petted though or stroking through peoples hair, just less clingy contact) In my afterglow it would be fine walking the con floors, but when I would be in my peak, I would be freaking out. I hate loud and crowded places when I am sober and this is amplified when I am on drugs. So I prefer just sitting at home with friends who are the same as me and just talk in soft voices.

On the flip side of that, I've had my costume messed up by people who were either too autistic to function or super high. They also seemed to like hugs and didn't want no for an answer, so I got bear hugged around both arms and they broke my prop jewelry.

I'd say yes to weed, no to drinking. Weed is fine, harmless, and fun. I can tell you for fucking sure, though, 70% of the board has at least one shitty story about babysitting a friend who decided to get drunk at the con. Getting drunk is not going to make the convention more fun for you, I guarantee. If you're getting your money's worth at a con, you're actually doing shit at the con. You're going to panels, you're meeting artists/actors/writers, you're buying shit you can't otherwise get easily. Going to a good con probably means sacrificing one event for the other because your schedule should be crammed full of cool shit.

I'm not even going to get into HOW much getting drunk is going to make you a nuisance because I guarantee some people are going to be like "You don't know how GREAT and coherent and FUNNY I am drunk, I am never a burden to anyone I go with" and maybe 5% of drunks at a con are like that. If you think you're in that 5% you are not.

It's great to meet your friends and have a drink, but save it for after con hours. Having some drinks in the hotel room or at a bar is always a good fucking time for my friends, but we're adults and we know how to time our shit so that even if someone has too much or gets hung over they'll be good for the con

>> No.7278434

Agreed.
People drink to get tipsy, nobody drinks to get drunk. Its one of the fixations of the younger generations, beats me why. Maybe because when you're drunk "anything is acceptable".

i usually smoke a bit of weed but that hardly really has an effect on anything apart from a nice way to meet people and chat

taken lsd once and didn't like it. it was all too overwhelming and stressful. ended up going home, which was much nicer. i don't like taking lsd at parties or clubs either so i don't know why i did it at a con

taken mdma twice. was great. made me really appreciate the "free hugs" people for once. also made it easier to approach and talk to people, obviously. there's always a bit of teeth grinding and jaw clenching and dancing around a bit and standard, mdma "gushing" talk but i don't think people minded too much

I tend to drink at cons, but the real key is moderation. If you're too drunk to be out in public, then you're too drunk to be at the con. The con is not there to babysit you. if you can keep a handle on yourself, great. If not, find some friends who will.

also, for people who like drinking and cons, if you're in the northeast I cannot recomment Nauticon highly enough. The whole convention is 21+ and includes con sponsored room parties

I am >>7278372 and the teeth grinding is also a thing why I would never do MDMA at a con. I would be so afraid someone would mind it, while at home I can just chew on those plastic sticks that hold your lollipop to my hearts content without people finding it obnoxious. And I really wouldn't do it without gum or anything to chew on, because I have a really strong jaw and I don't wanna end up breaking my teeth, because I am clenching/grinding to much. I've seen my dad managing that without drugs, because he clenches when he is under a lot of stress and I don't wanna do that to myself. As for the gushing talk, I think no one minds receiving compliments. I mean it is not as if you are talking hours about how nice someones eyes are or something. At least I don't. I usually leave it at ''I like your X so much, insert reason here. Wish I had X like that. You know what I like you.''

Acid was like going to hell and back for me. The trip started off really good, me and my friend were walking around my apartment laughing constantly. The floor was glowing and the walls were shiny. Well, things were continuing good so I sat down on my couch. I have a rug with a spiral-ish pattern on it and the pattern was totally chaning(almost like watching TV). Well things started changing color, from white, to yellow, to bright orange, to green, and so on. Well after a longwhile, my rug started darkening and the bright orange it was started turning red and the border was turning black. This really freaked me out and I closed my eyes and tried to relax.
So my walls are white normally. Well they had turned green and dark purple and my friend turned into somebody totally different. He had black markings on his face and was carrying a knife. I watched his eyes get really squinty and turn gold. Freaked out, I go to lay down on my couch. He was staring at me from across the room when I realized his eyes were now completely black and he was starring me right in the eyes. I was absolutely mortified, my vision went totally blurry, started sweating, felt dizzy, and well felt like I was about to die.
I could say more but the fact is, my acid experience was horrifying and will probably never do it again. I talked to my friend afterwards about it and he was also having a horrible trip.
I think it would be an absolutely shit idea to do acid at a convention, what if everyone looked like that on an acid trip you went on one time? I felt like I was going to get killed by him and I hardly recognized him even though he was my friend.

I'm the anon you replied to
re-read my post. I dont get why people want to get drunk either.

I'm chalking it up to
1) Petty idiots think they can "hold their liquor" more than their peers and want to see them drunk and make fools of themselves. So they encourage everybody drinking know that they themselves wont get drunk as easily (and end up getting drunk anyway ha)
2) Petty idiots want to see other people drunk and make fools of themselves (or think they might be able to sleep with them) but drink very little themselves, then "act drunk". When reprised for stupid behaviour they take out "oh I was drunk sorry". Nobody believes them.
3) People feel insecure at the small amounts of alcohol they can ingest and want to show their friends they're in the cool ring.
4) People legitimately forget how many drinks they've had and drink too much.

As to the effects, there are generally angry drunks, happy drunks (hyperactive), overtly flirty drunks, sleepy drunks and hallucinating drunks. All of them are equally annoying to deal with with regards to getting sure they get home/to bed.

I feel you bro, even though my friend changed in something I liked. His face started to contort into some kind of tiger face.

But I know how frightening it can be, because at one point my friend said ''Holy shit, I think I just saw a person over there'' (It was just a shadow on the wall) and he was really scared. And once you are scared it is not easy to get out of it.

That sucks man. Why did they confiscate your gum? I am still thinking about doing M at a rave, but not sure seeing how I prefer more easygoing environments. However I love dancing when sober. And I think dancing when on M might be a real blast, and well dancing in a room just isn't the same.

I love getting blasted on a few different substances, but usually I save it for raves and clubs. Cons are just so LONG that I really would rather the clear head and sleep, so usually I go light.

Weed: fun, but too much and you won't know what's going on and it sucks. Also your hotel mates will hate you if you stink the place up.

Alch: Getting moderately slitczhed and wandering the evening con events is awesome. Even more fun if you're caffeinated and crossfaded!

Molly: Save it for the dance. IMHO with molly either REALLY do it, or don't.

LSD: on a MILD dose ( ~75ug or less), acid just causes some euphoria and pretty colors, you can still hold lucid convos just fine. I wouldn't go over cause you're just gonna want to retreat to your room.

Shrooms: Comparable to LSD but... shrooms ALWAYS give me the farts and a stomach ache (why I stay away now). Considering everyone already eats like shit during cons this just sounds like a disaster.

A bit of weed would be fine. I sometimes dread dealing with people when i smoke a ton so i'd avoid that.

Alcohol would also probably be fine but sometimes you go over the limit without meaning too and you gotta take care not to smell.

Molly would be amazing :3 I'd wear sunglasses though.

I would never do acid or mushrooms though. I mean maybe you'll be able to handle it and the vibes will be amazing, but it's a bit of a gamble and it's just not worth it.

I can't tell you how many times I've been high at cons. It's pretty nice but I find drinking better for the most part since it really opens me up to be social, which is why I'm there in the first place. Being high does have its merits though.

It's really good for going to a show and chilling out, like a concert or a panel. It also makes standing in line so much more enjoyable. Ditto for walking long distances like if you need to get to a gathering. Oh man, gatherings are great high too since you can bask in your high bliss while the photographers snap away. Basically it makes all the boring parts of a con enjoyable and all the fun parts even more fun. Unfortunately it tends to make me much slower in general; walking, talking, responding, planning, etc. so if you actually want to get shit done and not take it easy it's better to stay sober.

I've never ruined a cosplay while I was high or drunk, but I have spilled some stuff on them a couple times. I do that when I'm sober anyway so whatever.

Probably the hardest part is finding somewhere to smoke. I guess if you're bringing edibles it doesn't matter as much, but I'll explain anyhow. The easiest way is to get a hotel room with a window that opens and where nobody can really see you. This is more based on luck unless you specifically ask for a room like that. If that's not an option I've found parking garages to be great places to smoke. Nobody hangs out in them and there's plenty of places to hide. Joints are best for this sort of thing.

Also I've been hella high while wearing my Satori cosplay hahahahaha

Yes, that is exactly my point. You keep saying no one ever goes nuts and causes problems, yet there are accounts all over the place of exactly that happening. Why do you assume there is no possibility of someone trying something at a con and having a bad reaction?

Not either of them but drugs are for degenerates.
You're consciously paying a bunch of money for shitty things that hurt you and hardly do anything good like they'll make you see pretty colors or make you giggly or want to hug people and you all know that these things could really fuck you up one time and make you do something completely retarded or hurt people. Even pot is shitty, why do you need something to change how you act and make you an annoying giggly idiot to have fun?
Drugs don't seem very cool anyways. It basically is like "hey look lol I'm so cool I just paid a bunch of money for this shitty thing that will fuck up my brain and make the walls a different color and might make me go on a homicidal rampage lel also it's illegal but who cares the government just doesn't want us to have nice things.

This is why rave chicks carry around pacifiers or mouth guards..


Personally I smoke pot on daily basis and I've been bringing my vaporizor to Otakon for 6 years now.

I have a lot of anxiety and it really helps me get through my periods (which always seem to fall during a con). I've been a daily smoker for 5 years now so it doesnt affect my motor skills but still helps relieve pain and calms me down. But a few years ago I was in a car accident and seriously injured my neck and spine.. so instead of being prescribed pain killers, muscle relaxants and sleeping pills, I just smoke and I feel better.

Soo Its not like I smoke POT just to go hehehehehe I'm so hiiigh look at meeee weee lets go plaaayy..

And money wise, I used to grow and now have friends who grow for me so I pay little to nothing for it... and since I vaporize I'm not inhaling tar or anything that is necessarily bad for you.


I haven't done any other drugs except Shrooms which I really enjoyed the 3 times I tried about 1.5g.. I don't smoke cigarettes nor drink and I'm 24yo.

got drunk at a con once and regretted it completely.
granted it was after the con-day was over and everyone was either at the rave or just hanging out anyway, but I ended up going back to my room afterwards, waking up all other 9 people in my room puking my brains out and they found me passed out in the bathroom.

She was severely epileptic, but your point still stands.

Most of my trips aren't for fun either. I have a lot of stress and can barely sleep at night, because I keep over-thinking things. So usually when I use drugs I use them to relax a little. Because really if I don't sleep at all, because of all the thoughts then I become a rabid bitch. So I rather use drugs once in a while to calm down then become insufferable and grumpy.

>>7279950
That's no problem with me. I like drinking water when on M, feels so nice and cold. And getting water for myself and friends always makes me happy too, because I can stretch my legs a little by just walking and my friends always appreciate it when I bring it to them, because they tend to forget and when they see the glass they are like ''Oh yeah, water... oh man thanks I was actually thirsty, but didn't really notice''

Smoking at cons is pretty common, it just makes everything more mellow for me. Probably handy if you're gonna be camped out taking pictures all day. Don't really do edibles so I don't know about that.

Wouldn't try any hallucinogens or molly in the day, at least to me that shit seems like it would be kind of overwhelming for a con. Maybe at night when there's stuff going on.

I usually smoke with friends at cons, I prefer it over drinking because I get hangovers really easily.

I've done LSD, MDMA, and 25i-NBOMe (an rc) several times (along with Adderall type meds, love the awake, hyperfocused feel). Had some great experiences and some bad. Molly would be fucking excellent at a con, but I'd never ever wanna take LSD and especially not an rc (too much anxiety). I feel like it would be conducive to a pretty horrifying trip. LSD especially is really beautiful if you have the right setting. For me it's less visual hallucinations and more of a complete change of perspective. I spent a while sitting in a huge walk in closet, in total darkness, perfectly still and imagined myself to be floating in a void, in space. Pretty neat thing to experience. Though I have had some crazy visuals, like a blue flower pin turning into water and flowing through my fingers.

As long as you don't abuse the shit out of them, certain drugs can be a lot of fun. That said, I wouldn't do PCP, meth, heroin, ketamine, etc.

My previous office drug-tested everyone because the same building had a factory floor in it. Even though I wasn't at the factory, the insurance policy was "we'll lower your premium if EVERYONE in the building does the test" so they made everyone do it.

Then I took a higher paying position at a software company and no. one. cares. Drugs aren't even in the employee handbook (which covers stuff all the way to reporting hours if you're a reserve Idaho national guard member. We're not even NEAR Idaho).

If someone's day was somehow ruined by interacting with a high person, they need to nut the fuck up.

Probably the top tier of the most STUPID drugs to take and go out in public with. Especially if you've never experimented with either and are doing it on a whim. You will likely have a panic attack and get yourself, or others in trouble/hurt. Don't do it. Even experienced users can't predict when they're gonna have a bad time.
>amphetamines
>namely mdma aka 'molly'
The second most stupid drug above alcohol to take out in public for one reason only: Unless you've tested it yourself (I'm looking at you Murrica) YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT'S IN IT. So many people confuse methadone highs for mdma highs. Methadone kills people and can especially take a toll on someone with no tolerance. It's especially common in those damn pressed pills kiddies love to pop at convention 'raves' because it's cheap to produce that way. One of my friends took two fake supermans at a rave once, we had to bring her home because her heart rate slowed down to the point where her extremities turned a bluish purple and the rest of her body turned dark tan. She didn't eat or sleep for three days, and had withdrawal symptoms for four weeks straight including mania and depression.
(Oh and fun fact: Let's say if you do have a massive panic attack or get into medical trouble, hospitals will not know how to treat you).
>alcohol
Well let's assume for a second that you're not having the responsible limit of one or two beers. Getting drunk out in public is never a good thing, especially with minors and very protective parents around. I haven't met too many people that could handle themselves being drunk out in public.

You can go very bad on shrooms. I once got nauseous because of them and started throwing up. The throwing up made me panic and then you go down the slope of madness. At one point I started hallucinating so bad that I thought the flowers in the garden were overgrowing and getting thorns and I started hearing demonic sounds and voices. If it wasn't for my former boyfriend to notice me crying underneath one of the trees it would have been a very bad experience. Luckily for me he told me that what I was hearing where just angels fucking around with those thingies that make your voice all screwed up.

I'm really not sure why you used politicians as an example wither considering any link to drug usage can tarnish your record. Do you just not keep up with current events and politics?

I wish I lived in such denial, it must be awesome to be able to look at facts and dismiss them completely because you would rather do the opposite. It must be nice to be so self serving.

Smoking weed at cons with my cosplay group is the funnest thing, since you can be in-character for it.

It seems like there is a lot of misinformation about how people act on drugs in this thread. Really it's only people who are inexperienced, who do not know how to handle themselves on drugs who cause problems like those stated in this thread.

Think about it like drinking. You wouldn't go to a bar and take 10 shots the first time you drank, so don't come to a con for your first time on LSD.
But, much like with drinking, and how you can handle a couple beers before the rave and somehow manage to hold yourself together, if you know how you act on a drug and it's appropriate then have fun. It's a con, and you won't be alone in your adventures.

No, you're cherry picking my post.

Just because someone deals you 'molly' and says 'yeah brah it's totes mdma~' doesn't mean it's just mdma. Anyone with experience with street drugs knows this.
You're different because you likely get your mdma from a trusted source, or test your supply before you take it (or maybe you're used to the drugs that your dealer cuts it with).

Some goofy ass kids at raves slamming down pills that some shady dick sold to them as 'molly' are putting themselves in danger.
Did you hear about the recent Electric Zoo deaths?>>http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/09/12/overdoses-of-molly-led-to-electric-zoo-deaths/?_r=0
>Mr. Russ had taken a fatal mix of MDMA and methylone, a closely related stimulant that is also often sold under the name molly. >Methylone is one of several stimulants and psychedelic drugs often used by drug dealers to cut MDMA, law enforcement officials said.
So I'm sorry but no, don't tell everyone who takes something marketed as 'mdma' that they're gonna be okay, it's irresponsible of you because you don't know what's in their pills.

If it is common the users are probably very quiet about it because getting caught with weed in Japan can have severe financial and long lasting social consequences. Not to mention it's expensive as shit ($60+/g as opposed to America where in most places it's $10-20/g)

Been high twice and didn't like it. Was in costume both times, which was fun, but personally weed makes me way too anxious and awkward in crowded situations. Alcohol's mentally better for me, but it makes me so effin clumsy and prop-breaky. Cosplaying Ibuki Suika has been a blast every time though, under any influence.

Sheltered people who have no idea what being drunk/high are obviously against it.

However, some of us do know that you can be these things without just being impaired assholes. Use your brain and don't act like an idiot and you'll be fine. I wouldn't recommend LSD or mushrooms though, because there's always the possibility of a bad trip.

If you know your limit, go for it. If you don't, don't. Besides, you'll be less annoying than half of the aspies there either way.

It's hard to use the brain when drugs directly affect the brain.

You have to test your limit prior to the convention to arrange the dosage that's both enjoyable and manageable.

>>7284316
Aren't cons enjoyable enough by themselves?

Perhaps usage of drugs has impaired your brain's ability to regulate dopamine levels.
That's the cause for depression among drug addicts. You dried up.

I'd suggest sports or cooking, even better as a part of a tournament. Even if you don't have as much fun in those activities, you'll be able to harvest the fruits of your effort, with a stronger body and a stronger appetite.
Making them a competition makes the result a little bit better and usually more fun, as long as you play along.

Well you aren't going to be any good at anything if you don't do it at all. That's true of most activities, because a certain level of skill is needed which usually comes with repetition and practice. That's like saying "I'm never going to make a prop because I don't have Volpin's skill level", no one was born a professional. Some people start with more or less talent than others, but I was always told that I should try skill based activities for at least 6-8 weeks, and do them consistently for that time period, because that would give me a chance to be okay at it and make it more fun. I'm going to try to learn some basics of handbalancing and do some tricking and acro stuff this year because it looks freaking cool, plus I can free YouTube tutorial in my flat with a bunch of cushions for the basics.

That sounds like me and piano, but instead of travel it was trying to get into the uni course I wanted. It makes me frustrated every time I touch the piano especially because a lot of my friends continued playing and are now much better than I was. I'm thinking of taking it up again though because I used to really love it and there are still pieces I want to play, but idk if I can cope with what's likely to be months of practice and regaining skill plus I'd have to get a piano and probably start having lessons again. Although at least we both know we can be decent with practice, because we were previously at a higher level. It would suck more to do it and then make no progress.

>> No.7284818

I don't know about all of you but when my friends and I get high none of us go do stupid retarded things, no one is annoying or obnoxious. Also no one has to worry about baby sitting one another..

We like to sit and watch older movies or play board games and card games.. Risk, munchkin, CAH, yugioh, mtg, hearts, etc.

Sometimes we go on long hikes or walks around the local park, bike rides you name it weve prolly been "stoned" for it.

Now is there a time I don't smoke? Yeah. Right now I'm at work, haven't smoked since last night and won't smoke until I'm home from my 8hr shift. And after being on my feet all day instead of taking 600-800mg of ibuprofin, IIll just take a few hits out of my bong and start working on my kigurumi or styling one of my wigs.

At cons I like to bring my vaporizor that way I can still smoke when I would like but not have any smell on my clothes or breath

How does one person doing drugs and drinkign alcohol ruin the ENTIRE con experience for you?

Benzos (mostly Etizolam) have always been pretty good. Just takes all anxiety away, obviously, and lets you approach random people and talk freely without any anxiety at all. There's even a very tiny bit of euphoria at higher doses. Only downside is the reduced motor skills and that, if people do start drinking, it's going to potentiate the shit out of it and you'll get absolutely wasted and behave like a moron and you won't remember any of it. It plays pretty nice with weed though.

Well, here is a legit response to anon since this turned into a completely unhelpful shitstorm. Don't do shrooms at a con for the first time-- can be hard to control yourself on them. Also, you can get really paranoid around sober people. If you are around a lot of people, especially strangers, their faces can morph/look funny/seem scary.

Just toke in the hotel room and have fun!

Dear OP. When I first started going to cons I would smoke joints all through out the time. Before I walked in, when my friends would go out to have a cig, whenever I was outside basically. It was fun but you end up smelling bad.

I also go to cons while on speed and/or molly. It's fun and exciting, makes everything that much more intense. But be careful, some people can't control themselves and end up being/looking like crack heads. Don't let that be you, it ruins the con for everyone.
