I’m 27 now, been a pretty frequent skier for the past 5-ish years. Bi-weekly on average, sometimes weekly, sometimes I’ll have a 2-3 day bender. Usually (8/10 times) it’s accompanied with alcohol. Obviously not 100% of the time, I’ve had periods of weeks, months off etc… But more frequently than not, I’m sniffing at these rates. I also smoke and don’t eat the greatest.

Been hitting the powder pretty frequent this summer, maybe even slightly before. Many multi-day stretches, weekly, etc. I’ve done between 1g to 1.75g a day, for the last couple days. On it now.

Really starting to feel it. Palpitations, dizziness after a heavy night, sweating and fatigue from simple activities the day after…

It’s almost insanely redundant that I’m even asking this, considering my level of use and the symptoms I’m having… The answer is obviously stop ASAP for my health and get some bloody help if I can’t…

But I’m currently on a few lines and curious how common hardcore issues are among folks here in my age group… Or any age, for that matter.

Feel free to share your stories. Rational thought clearly isn’t enough and I need some extra anecdotal discouraging.
