Lethal combinations of sex drugs and alcohol

 Alcohol and drugs are factors leading to risky sex. The most common consequences are usually, unintended pregnancy in the case of women, sexually transmitted infections, sexual violence and other adverse outcomes. Drinking and taking drugs in sexual situations are mostly aimed at sensation seeking and pleasure stimulation. For this reason it is not strange that having sex without a condom or having numerous sex partners become a priority for those looking for new experiences.

People in the walls

 I am a 25-year-old Australian. I have used meth since 19. Only ever shot it up, no normal pattern of snort, smoke then shoot, but from my experiences here in Melbourne, shooting up is the only way to use.

The night that won't end

Let me start by saying that I have had experiences with nearly every kind of drug used recreationally in America these days. LSD, pot, hash, coke, crack, opium, heroin, speed (pills), shrooms, K, G and all the different pills you can name. I'm 30 yrs old and 1st smoked pot at 11. I did crack and coke by age 14. It was like whoopdie do. This is what's destroying America? It never seemed to get a hold on me. I saw what it did to others. I've seen some real horror stories unfold.

The use of crystal meth implies unsafe sexual promiscuity

Crystal meth is here to stay and as it appears its effects have brought to life again the madness and frivolity of the past cocaine decades.

Repressed, obsessed, depressed

So it's 2001. I'm in CA, in the military, just divorced, and still trying to pretend that at some point in my life I won't be obsessed with beautiful men. But post-divorce and feeling angry for all my unfocused and deluded years; I decide it's time to explore what really makes me tick. So on leave, one Saturday night, I hit a bathhouse. I even use my military ID for a discount. I am drunk going in and feel bold; however being safe is my main concern. I just want to see everything I've heard about. I am not a drug user at all.
