Combinations - ketamime, valium, alcohol and cannabis...

[RoboShindo]

SWIM had his first ever "blackout" experience last night thanks to this little combination, and figured he would share it so that others may avoid doing the same thing. SWIM considers himself lucky not to have gotten into any situation which could have caused real problems.

4pm yesterday, swim had finished his university day, handed in a 2000 word essay he'd spent a long time on and figured he'd earnt himself a little break, it had been a long time since he last touched anything that wasn't weed or alcohol. 5pm SWIM dropped 20mgs of valium (which he has never done before), and after half an hour started to feel sort of nice and more relaxed. He took another 10mgs, then half an hour later he took a fourth 10mgs (so 40mgs over the hour from 5-6) along with this he had had 5 or 6 shots worth of southern comfort, he knows these two aren't a good mix as they are greatly synergistic, but he figured what the hell he was up for a crazy time.

About 7.30 swims speech was a bit slurred and although his thoughts were quite clear, his balance was poor and he kept nearly falling, he walked down to his friends house and they sat around and smoked weed untill about midnight (maybe 4 spliffs, between 4 of Swim and his friends). When Swim got home it was about 1am and swim had a cheese toasty and went to his room. Swims balance was poor, but he was in a very nice place, a gentle buzz and a great mood. Swim then decided to make use of the first ketamine he'd gotten hold of in a while, and racked up himself two pretty hefty lines, then ten minutes later went to his bed to lie down. He promptly fell asleep.

Or at least he thought he was asleep, SWIM awoke at 12 noon today with bruised knees with carpet burn, his elbow bleeding and headache, and still feeling a bit drunk/off balance/slow. Apparently he was up for a good hour after he remembered with absolutely no recollection of it, banging on his room walls and screaming for help, Swim woke up his flatmate who consoled him and tried to get him for bed to hours, whilst SWIM constantly fell about the place and no doubt severely tested his friendship with his flatmate. SWIM even tried to leave the city-center flat at one point but his friend stopped him, luckily.

SWIM has no recollection of any of these events but wanted to type them up to see if anyone had done similar and to warn other people not to either. SWIM is lucky his flatmate was willing to look after him because the night could have ended a lot worse than it did for SWIM, he doesn't doubt that for a second.

[SWIM wasn't sure if this thread should be a combinations or experiences thread]
