Let's see there's 50 whippets in a box, 12 boxes in a case. I did a couple hundred cases before I finally stopped. My last two binges 5 years apart were 15 cases over a 2 week period and 20 cases over a 10 day period. Once I start cracking whippets I can't stop. It felt almost like an OCD thing.
- mahathu 4y agoProbably it would be more efficient to fill up balloons from a larger tank and then inhaling from the balloons. You can continuously breathe in and out from the same balloon multiple times for a few times until all the N2O has been absorbed by the body (hypothetically)
- labrador 4y agoI cracked the whippets into a large plastic bag and then inhaled from that. I stuck with whippets because it was the fail safe option.
- skulk 4y agoMy buddy and I used to crack whippets with a knife and frantically try to put the neck into a balloon with.... mixed results. The idea of using a plastic bag never occurred to us!
- kadoban 4y agoGiving a drug addict, who obviously doesn't want to be doing the drug anymore, advice on how to more efficiently do drugs seems at _best_ morally questionable. They've probably already worked out many other options and know this, but even so...just why do this?
- labrador 4y agomahathu isn't telling me something I didn't already know. When you are obsessed you figure all the angles. The only way I stopped was to take months long road trips to places that didn't sell nitrous, like the Alaskan wilderness. I did find spiritual recovery by reading Zen books on the road, so now I live in San Jose where there are smoke shops selling whippets on every corner and don't have a problem with it. Nitrous was useful for helping me look at traumas I suffered in the military by muting my anxiety and strong emotions when I approached the subject. Another reason I don't have a problem with nitrous right now is that I worked through my traumas adequately.
- mahathu 4y agoYeah, you're right. I don't know what I was thinking. I can't delete my comment anymore, but I flagged it.

- Jolter 4y agoLet’s try not to help encourage a recovering adding to do drugs in a new, more efficient, way.
- pcthrowaway 4y agoWas it a physical addiction? Like would you actually go through withdrawals from not being on Nitrous? I've done a little bit, a long long time ago, but didn't realize this was a possibility. I didn't really enjoy it personally
- labrador 4y agoNo, there's no withdrawal so it must not by physical, but it would trash my nervous system so I was sick and in pain for a few days. Nothing more nitrous won't cure! So the cycle of abuse would continue until I physically couldn't go on.
- JKCalhoun 4y ago* whip-its
- labrador 4y agoThe European manufacturers I used spell it a variety of ways
- schwartzworld 4y agoIt's called hippie crack for a reason.
- labrador 4y agoI didn't know that when I started. I was thinking of "the nitrous philosopher" William James. Later I heard hippie crack. Yep.
