comedowns - a good thing?

Former Member

I've never heard anyone else suggest this idea but i'd like to put it forward....

I find comedowns really useful. The reason for this is that I used to suffer with depression for absolutely no good reason. Just for no reason i would find myself working myself up into a feelings of inadequecy and patheticness. However since I began pilling I find that the comedown on a monday is a really useful tool for myself. I find that by subjecting myself to a spell of depression I've learnt how to deal with it. It helps to know that by wednesday I'll feel right as rain but I try and psychologically beat the depression and not suffer too much. Then when i ever feel a bit low in the real world I can apply the same attitude to beat those feelings and get on and enjoy life.

I don't take pills very often - maybe once a month at most.

I know that this was quite a hippyish post but there u go. I've never heard anyone else suggest it.

I think you do have a point in that the crash and burn tells you something is up and not to do it so hard. Its just a shame that I not only try my best to avoid comedowns (ghb, valium, pot, codine) but even if my body does try to teach me a lesson for partying for 40 hours on speed I dont listen.

I fuckin hate comedowns this is my first one and i feel like shit and i cant stop crying,i'm even crying now!! And I've also got the flu symptons but i dunno if thats from the coke comedown or just cos i suddenly caught flu??????? I feel like jumping in front of a train right now.

Easy girl, it will pass. Find someone u were with on the weekend, comedowns can also be a cool shared experience. Your Sniffles will pass, sleep, and like magic, you're cool. Then repeat, 5,6,7,8.

The lesson for today; Avoid coke, it has a crap high and the worst crash.
