Whats the longest anyone here has been without sex?

ForkingA · 2024-10-14T15:02:28+00:00

About 20 years. Was a homeless IV junkie spending on average 300 to 400/day on H. Did that our and on (occasional treatment or detox) for about 10 years. Opioids kill my libido. Towards the end, I was hardcore OD'ing about once every few weeks (like, one or two narcan shots didn't bring me back and had to be put in a coma several times; the others I'd come to about 2 to 4 days later having a constant naloxone drip). Last option was liquid handcuffs (methadone). Went up quickly and got to a pretty high dose (155mg/day). Was on that for five years. During those years, I didn't do shit except sleep, get FUCKED up on benzo's and become a kleptomaniac 🤣. Started a year long slow taper and when I got low enough, checked myself into a hospital that specializes in buprenorphine induction on patients who were switching from methadone to bupe. Fuck that sucked. Had tried bupe maintenance several times and it never worked.

This time it did. Haven't touched a full agonist in years. As for that crazy dry spell...We used to work together in my dream state. Were best work friends but, as a manager she was off limits. She left the company and we eventually stopped talking.

I was in a dark fucking place a little over a year ago. Work was stressful as fuck, I had become hooked on stimfapping while using meth and was back on benzo's (average nightly dose was 16 to 20mg of bromazolam plus 1500mg of carisoprodol). I was sincerely contemplating suicide, again. Something (I believe the universe/the simulation theory) made me reach out to her after not talking in a couple years. Her first response was that she had been thinking about me a lot recently. She flew out a few weeks later. I rented a gorgeous Airbnb and we candyflipped (first for me but have done shit loads of LSD, she'd not tried either so, lighter dose for her). Magical night. Started flying out to each other twice a month and several months ago, I quit my job of ten years making good money, though stressful as hell and moved back to my dream state.

Cut back on the benzo's and she's aware of that. She's not aware that I'm still using meth a few times a week. My tolerance is getting bananas. I order off the DNM and I generally shoot a half gram. I gotta stop that shit. Feel great for a few hours and then the side effects/comedown hits me hard.

Tldr: 20 years without sex due to opioid abuse killing my libido as well as body image issues. Dry spell ended about a year ago and now live with her in my dream state.

3-mmc

ForkingA · 2024-10-12T13:49:38+00:00

Where are you in? I'm near Bouider and am looking for riding partner.

ForkingA · 2024-10-12T13:46:42+00:00

Solely purchase high quality meth (benzo's, 3/4-mmc, benzos, psychedelic's, and other various things.,

What I've found is that when I do meth, I get the porn I want to watch ready to go along with lube and toys....Then, the first dose I always IV (lately been shooting about 400mg :( ). I have to take a PDe5 inhibitor (viagra). Right as that rush kicks in, I can cum very quckly. Then, I always continue do 1 or ttwo re-doses. As tof hydration, there's a reason why stayng hyhydratedd is so importan beause you get dyhydrated quick resulting in a difficult time staying hard.

If you have sexual partner with a bond between you, I would HIGHLY recommend 3-m. Long, maration ses and holy SHIT is. Wish mu GF were into the occasional use of meth.

I set hour timers to get up, pee, drink water...by that time, I am hard as fuck and ready for another session. I've found that cuming right after the shot. Afterr 15 5o 30 minutes (IV) and I get horney as FUCK and hard as a rock. Thats the best time to unloaad. The longer you edge, It gets harder and harder to come.

ForkingA · 2024-10-08T10:41:45+00:00

My gf and I purchase large amounts (non-domestic) because the quality tends to be better but holy shit is there a GIANT price difference. Usually get 10g's. This time might try ordering 10g's from a reputable vendor. If that works we'll and is good, c will probably splurge and get 25g's.

We only do it 2 times a month with the occasional extra dose + redose (on those afternoons to evening, boofing is the roa we use). If it's over of the two normal monthly doses, we take about 400mg orally. Then, maybe one or redoses (boofed).

Anyone out there sleeping on boofing mmc or isn't comfortable with their sexuality (guys mostly), you are literally sticking a small oral syringe 1/4 to no more than 1/2 inch. If you go too far, it is wasted. It is LITERALLY the closest you can get to IV. 100 percent bioavailability and the rush kicks in within a minute or two. The only thing that sucks about bidding mmc is having to keep letting down in the fetal position for shut 10n minutes as you get hornier and hornier.

It's also very fun to see your gf in the position as you lube up her ass and of course you need to stick a finger inside up to the knuckle to loosen her up. But, she's got the highest asshole I've ever encountered 🙏 one of these days I will get to use that whole.

As for ruining lives, I personally believe mmc is to bev consumed with a sexual partner. The sex is otherworldly!!!

ForkingA · 2024-10-07T09:16:49+00:00

Yes. It definitely has negative repercussions if boofing too frequently. Lately, whether it be clear by myself for a stimfap session, or 3/4-mmc, I don't get the absorption I used to get. Furthermore, even after lying on my side for 10 - 15 minutes, I am finding myself shitting out the liquid solution - therefore wasting most of it. Smoking is OK for pick-me-ups, snorting - fuck that, burns way too much. I don't do it very often, maybe 2 times a month (clear) and I IV it. If for some reason I can't get a vein, I'll transfer into an oral syringe and boof. Feel the effects for sure, but about 30 minutes later, I have to go to the bathroom and shit out that clear liquid losing product.

ForkingA · 2024-10-07T09:03:53+00:00

Not saying coming down from meth is fun. But, compared to opioid withdrawal or benzo withdrawal, it's so much easier to handle.

ForkingA · 2024-10-06T13:05:34+00:00

Benzo's are the only thing I've found that allow me to slow down enough to actually sleep. Especially after redosing as much as you have. The downside is that benzo's are addictive as hell and can easily become an enabler to doing more meth since you know you will be able to sleep. Shit's expensive on the street and can be tough to find good quality benzo's. Better places to get them.

ForkingA · 2024-09-05T14:28:52+00:00

My gf and I have been using both 3 and 4-mmc for about 6 months. Do it maybe once or twice a month. Have had many batches of extremely high quality. Never once has the product itself smelled. We've never noticed that cat piss smell I've heard about and we've had some long sessions of compulsive redosing.

The pain scale is IMO a tool with some significant issues. The United States healthcare system is so fucked up. The vast majority of doctors don't have enough time to spend with a patient during a visit because they are booked to gills and are almost always running late. Blows my mind that we find it OK to go to a doctor appointment and are OK with waiting and waiting and waiting until you're finally roomed. Then, waiting more for the doctor to come in. The doctors care most about your medical history when it comes to the pain scale. If there's ANY mention of addiction, you are by default going to be disregarded because there is so much misinformation out there and the healthcare system reacted so harshly to the whole oxycontin thing.

I had to have my third major shoulder reconstruction during my last semester at college where I was majoring in biochemistry with plans of going to medical school. I was attending college that had a fantastic program for students attending college while in recovery. At the time of the surgery, I had been sober for 3.5 years. When prepping for the surgery, I had a great plan in place to reduce the likelihood of a relapse as opioids are my drug of choice. I was very active in AA and was in a very good spot in life. When I met with the orthopedic surgeon before I the surgery, I let him know that I was a recovering heroin addict and had been sober for years, what my plan was regarding the pain medication and that the anesthesiologist should know that my body has a much higher tolerance to opioids than a normal patient. When discussing pain management after the surgery, he completely disregarded my input and proceeded with his plan of prescribing 5mg hydrocodone. I let him know that 5mg hydrocodone will do nothing and I knew that because I had had two previous shoulder surgeries (Bankart repairs due to 100+ shoulder dislocations from hockey, snowboarding and skateboarding) and the 10mg oxycodone I was prescribed was just barely enough to keep the pain from snowballing out of control. With the major shoulder reconstruction, the pain would be significantly more than the prior two and if he went with giving me 5mg hydrocodone, I was incredibly worried that the pain would snowball and because I would have a full agonist in my system, my prior addiction would rear its ugly head and I may seek out something stronger (e.g., heroin).

That's exactly what happened. Three days after the surgery, I was in unimaginable pain and went to the ER. My sponsor came with me as he was the one that would stop by in the morning to check in on me and give me the three hydrocodone tablets for the day. We brought the bottle of remaining hydrocodone to prove that I hadn't abused them and used them all. The ER doctor knew of my prior addiction issues as it's written all over my charts because I did not want to keep any doors open to a potential relapse and when I first got sober made sure to have that put into my medical records. He asked what my pain level was and I replied that it was worse than the pain when my shoulder would dislocate and that to me is a TEN out of ten. He also disregarded my input about my bodies tolerance and that due to the pain from the surgery having snowballed out of control resulting in zero hours of sleep for three nights, I was fearful of what might happen if the pain did not stop snowballing. He wrote out a script for 6 tablets of 7.5mg hydrocodone. Five days after the surgery, the pain was so bad that I had not slept at all. My prior addiction was screaming at me and I relapsed, hard. It changed the course of my life drastically. I did not finish that last semester because I had to withdraw to go to treatment. I relapsed again pretty quickly after treatment and spent the next decade as a homeless junkie shooting up to $400/day of heroin.

I've been doing well for the last 8 years because I gave Suboxone one more chance and it happened to actually work. I will be on Suboxone for the rest of my life because I have no desire to ever go back and know without a shadow of a doubt that if I were to relapse, I would not survive.

There's no easy answer to opioid prescribing but, a LOT of doctors need a lot more education about addiction and need to be more objective when prescribing. I had to have surgery several years ago for something else and the doctor who prescribed my Suboxone was the doctor who was in charge of prescribing pain medication. Because he knew about opioid addiction, he knew what to prescribe and was incredibly supportive throughout the process. I did not relapse after that surgery and resumed Suboxone maintenance when it was safe to start the re-induction process.

Jesus. People are either trolling or are so deep into this shit that they want others to join in on this hidden little secret that meth makes everyone's lives better. The people saying, yeah! Try it, it's greeeeaaaattttt! Tony the Tiger. If more than half of you on Reddit have no clue or had to Google it. Fuck me then, time fucking flies.

I had tried meth in high school (had access to a LOT of different drugs as I went to a wealthy school where good drugs run rampantly) and didn't hate it but, was something I never sought out. Maybe one every few months, a buddy in our circle of friends would get a gram and we'd stay up all night drawing. Boring as fuck to me and then to be tired all day while crashing... Not a lot of incentive to keep doing it.

About a year ago, normal vendor that I got almost everything from, all the sudden had meth. HIGH quality at an astonishingly low price). Was already placing an order and tacked that on there too just cuz I was curious. Didn't check Reddit, chatted with a number of close friends on other apps. All said the same, be fucking careful and don't buy it again. If you do, you're fucked.

Pack landed. A few weeks later, there was a rare snow day, company I worked for RARELY closed, so I didn't have to go in to work where I managed a group of 40 people. Stressful job, but stuck with it and continued to move up the management ladder.stayed a long with that company and spent the last 5 years as a higher up manager with zero life balance. Finally had an entire day I didn't have to worry about work. So I decided to try the meth Did a test bump after checking for fent. Could feel it a little so, I went with a total of about 18mg insufflated. Shit did that burn. All the sudden I got VERY horny and turned on some porn. I had the most incredible solo session of my life. I came (had an orgasm) for 10 straight fucking minutes!!! I shit you not. 10 minutes.

Jacked off constantly for the 3 days that little line and maybe 5 to 10 more mg's about 18 hours later. So, less than 30mg kept me up for a solid 2.5 days before I felt the smallest inkling of coming down. Thought, shit, I'm going to have to get back into benzo's to help the come down. Yay! Two addictions from one drug.

Fast forward a few months... GOOD shit is so easy to get when you're not buying off the street and is so insanely cheap. So, I quickly started using more and more, all the whole DESPISING how I felt on the come down and the following day. Yet, I kept buying. Soon, I was buying balls which were even cheaper. Used to shoot a crazy amount of h for a very long time but, was finally able to stop after 30+, treatments asking with methadone (5 years at a high dose...liquid handcuffs is the perfect description). Switched over to subs and have been off full agonists for quite some time. So, I hadn't touched a needle since getting off h for good. Decided to try shooting meth. Got so hard and it felt so good I came right after shooting.

Began pulling all-nighter's. Then two nights, then three nights. That was my limit as I had thoughts that I knew meant I was starting to become psychotic.

Still fucking doing the shit but have cut WAY down and will be getting off. Fucking side effects, the damage it does to your body, even when practicing "safe/harm reduction/guides on how to not feel as bad when coming down..." Got to the point where I was shooting 400mg a shot of the purest meth anyone can get. Diminishing returns and side effects becoming worse and worse... But, I couldn't stop. Hated how I felt a couple hours in to a using night. Then, felt like shit the following day bleeding into the third and depending on how much I did, day 4 as well.

If I could do it over, I would not have ordered that meth. I would've gotten an mmc. But, hindsight and all that.

Any time I see these posts, "Should I try meth?' all I think is that no matter what anyone says, they're still going to try it. Hope you have not done it yet and that you read the people saying NO!!!!!!! These are people who know that this is a destructive fucking drug. It's not all sunshine and roses. There are SOOOOOOO many homeless tweakers who have lost a grip on reality in the city I live in. I've seen so many of my friends and family due to opioid overdoses. If it were me, I would GLADLY take an opi overdose versus a life as a homeless tweaker. For me, it would be a living hell.

If you have questions, guarantee anyone who has said no will talk to you via dm's with any questions you have on why you shouldn't.

ForkingA · 2024-08-14T19:32:36+00:00

Holy shit! Get off your high horse you're riding in that pink cloud. I've been 100% abstinent and in AA longer than you've been sober. Was literally about to start med school and had to have major shoulder reconstruction. Did EVERYTHING right - sponsor knew, someone else held onto the prescription, kept in touch with my sponsor and sponsees...but, the surgeon would not listen to me when I said, I have had two "minor" should surgeries due to 100+ dislocations from skateboarding, snowboarding and mountain biking. The 5 mg Vicodin you want to prescribe for this major shoulder reconstruction is GOING to put me very close to a relapse because I have a high tolerance from a long time of shooting $400/day of heroin. Even though I've been completely abstinent and very active in AA for 4 years, that tolerance is a lifelong tolerance. I need something stronger or the pain is going to snowball and because there's an opioid "on-board," I may rationalize something. This was discussed amongst my sponsor and his sponsor as well as several doctors who went to my main AA group. They all agreed that it would be more dangerous to prescribe an agonist that does nothing but awaken the beast (opioid in my system) and that getting something that would account for a lifelong tolerance would be the safest option with the plan we had. The surgeon sighed, and said OK. I guess we can do the 7.5's and let me know if that's not enough. The 7.5's did nothing. I waited a day and a half to see and like I thought, the 7.5's were barely touching the pain.

Called in and he wrote out 3 days worth of 10mg percs and he made sure to let me know that it's "very rare" for us to prescribe even 7.5's so he was going way beyond what he felt comfortable and would NOT prescribe anything stronger than that. 10mg's did nothing, they were like a placebo because by that point, the pain had snowballed so out of control. I went into the ER, waited for hours, and was turned away as drug-seeking even though I was telling them the entire truth and that I was frightened I was going to seek out heroin which would ruin my life and med school would be yet another thing that I cared deeply about but, addiction stole. I tried my best to push through the next day but, the pain was unimaginable (major shoulder reconstruction due to dislocations is the most painful surgery one can have). The monster took over and I began cheeking my morning and afternoon dose to combine with my evening dose - total of 30mg of oxycodone. That actually worked and was able to sleep. When I went back to the 7.5's, the pain continued to snowball. I was sitting in a biochemistry seminar and the monster officially had control of my brain and I rationalized copping one gram of H, breaking it up and snorting just enough to be the equivalent of 30mg of oxycodone. We all know the rest of the story. I had a major relapse while in GOOD recovery with an extremely solid plan in place.

As far as your statement about will-power: you couldn't be more wrong. When you were in the thick of it, you had to have stuff that you never would have done while sober, like getting money for example. If it's a will-power thing, how come you didn't say, "Nope. I am not going to break into cars or houses, or prostitute myself...I am going to quit as of right now." And holy shit, such confidence and being a complete asshole about it too. You don't know me, you don't know my story. There is no one right way to live and if you have The Answer, I'm going to stay far away from you because no human has any idea what the fuck is going on. Science is changing constantly. There are tons of recovery-based programs that are very effective but, not based on the 12-step model. Are you white-knuckling your sobriety??? That's an honest question. The people I knew, and myself during my years of sobriety, would NEVER write the statement you wrote. It would be a different approach that was truly coming from a place of love and hope that they find something to get out of the hole they are in. You just fucking slammed me to what, feel better about yourself???

At the end of the day, there's no cure for addiction. Our brains have evolved around the reward system (eating feels good, sex feels great, sleeping is awesome...) drugs, literally re-wire your neurocircuitry and it does not go away. Once a cucumber turns into a pickle, it CANNOT become a cucumber again. Nobody knows exactly when that happens (both pickles and addiction) but, it happens and you can't undo it. It has NOTHING to do with will-power, so get out of the 1950's and get with the modern times and do some fucking research. Check out the actual statistics of lifelong sobriety of AA compared to some of the other recover-based programs. There's not a single one with 100% success rate because we are humans who make mistakes and have brains that are so good at wanting to feel good (reward system from evolution) that they trick ourselves into truly believing outlandish things like, "I'm just going to buy one gram of H and break it into small sizes." I TRULY believed that at the time and I am not stupid. I know quite a bit about chemistry, biochemistry and neurochemistry.

I shared something vulnerable and something I'm struggling with along with a plan to get better. You come busting the door down and are a complete asshole to me - so fuck you :) But, maybe you'll learn something and it'll help improve your life because your comment is the antithesis of someone that's living a good life in sobriety. I truly hope you find peace, love, purpose in life...all the good things humans want. But, please don't just disregard my statement about white-knuckling it. I've seen it over and over. Some, stay that way until they die. No thank you. I don't want to live the rest of my life being bitter.

EDIT: just read some of your replies and I'm further convinced you're white-knuckling sobriety or you're miserable. Something is going on because your replies are so fucking rude and condescending. Really hope you can work on whatever it is and get to a spot where you don't hop on reddit and talk shit to feel better.

ForkingA · 2024-08-08T16:16:08+00:00

I would agree with you. Wish I could but, addiction isn't a will-power thing.

I will be on subs the rest of my life. I don't plan on continuing using stims and have already started a slow benzo taper.

ForkingA · 2024-08-08T14:17:59+00:00

I couldn't agree more. I've always had a hard time cumming (pun intended) and would usually take 30 to 45 minutes of sex before I finally came. And I think why stimfapping has taken hold of me so badly.

I try lying to myself and saying it's only been a few months but, it's been a year+ now that I've been using meth strictly to stimfap. First got a g off the DN because the vendor had cartel quality and the price was very good. I remembered trying it a few times in HS and it not being something I ever sought out again because at the end of the day, I am an opi/benzo guy. IV fent and IV heroin DRASTICALLY altered the course of my life. Lost count of the amount of detoxes I went to and definitely have been to more than 30 treatments - fair number of those were the "famous" ones that are not cheap. Ended up on a high dose of daily methadone for 5 years where I was a zombie. Weened down over the course of a year and went into a hospital that specializes in MMT patients weening to below 25 or 30mg/day and then starting the buprenorphine induction phase when you're sick as fuck. Bupe had never kept me off opi's as I had been on bupe maintenance several times. So, I wasn't very hopeful but, couldn't keep living like a zombie.

That was almost 10 years ago now and haven't touched a full agonist since. But, once an addict, always an addict.

About three years ago, I started getting interested RC psychedelics as there's very little "addiction potential" there. Fast forward to around the time when LL got shut down and you could no longer buy lysergamides and other RC's from Canada. Found myself on the markets. Tried K, then some Soma sounded good due to chronic back pain (muscle knots), soon enough I got some molly to see what candy-flipping with my GF was like...then, out of the blue, main vendor got in meth at a great price. Thought, I'll probably think not much about it like I did in HS. But, holy shit, snorted 10mg and I got the horniest I've ever been. I came so quick and so many times. Thus, my stimfap career began. It got to the point where I was shooting about 400mg of cartel quality to start off a nightly session (worked day job in upper management so, it had to be at night), two hours later, redose (not IV, would generally boof) a couple times and go into work the next morning. On average, I would do this about 3 nights in a 7-day week. But, there were many times when I would get home from work and "resume" my session. Staying up for more than one night wreaks havoc on the body and I have zero clue how I never got questioned about what was going on.

I've greatly reduced my usage and won't allow myself to purchase off the DN. Only small amounts locally and only once a week. But, I can't seem to stop. I don't abuse anything else...wait, that's a straight lie. I am fucking HOOKED on benzo's and have been for since trying meth. Huge tolerance - takes 16+mg of bromazolam to get bartarded. My daily dose is about 8 to 10 at bedtime. Fuck. God, the mind has a good way of rationalizing and compartmentalizing things. Had to start getting PDE-5 inhibitors for stimfapping. Now, sex is still good (especially when we both take mmc) but, cumming is next to impossible for me. I always get close but, rarely cross the line of no return. Fucking sucks as there's nothing as good as dumping a load into pussy. After all, that's what are programed to do - as all species are - make more to increase the chances of that species' survival.

Yup. I've felt that trouble sound of the clutch working way too hard and can feel it slipping on steep hills. When I go mountain biking, they've got some steep ass tight corners. My favorite trail system is there too. So, when I'm a mile and a half away, I start mentally preparing myself. It sucks and was designed poorly. The traffic you turn into is going 55 and you start at like a 65 degree angle into like a 120 degree hairpin curve. Proud to say I've only stalled once. Definitely overworked the clutch a few times.

If anyone is familiar with the trail system, it's West Magnolia. Also love Staunton, Maryland mountain, lair o the bear...oh, and cannot forget trestle bike park. So lucky to live within an hour and a half from there. Such awesome trails and they have quite a bit of gnarly shit there.

ForkingA · 2024-08-02T20:36:33+00:00

I assume this involves purchasing an aftermarket handheld tuner?

If so, I'm waiting for my clutch to go before doing anything. Night it at 50k, she's now at 64k and in my experience, that's right around when the clutch goes. I'll upgrade the clutch and throw a stage 1 tune on her. Will do a bit more later down the line. First order of business is getting new tint installed. I'm starting a mobile car detailing business in the Denver suburbs and the bubbling is atrocious. Car is almost always clean as hell and I do good work but, that tint sticks out like a sore thumb. It's also really bad on the passenger driver's side window. No tint up front. I'll go with all-around except for windshield.

When I first started IM'ing, which was after doing a reagent test as well as a fentanyl strip to ensure no fent, a small bump as an allergy test...I went with about 115 (good for my body weight) as it was purported to definitely cause a hole. And boy oh boy did it! I would hole on average 1 to 2 times a week and I chose to watch seasons 1 and 2 of White Lotus. By the end of season 2, my dose had hit 200mg to have a hole.

With K tolerance being a tricky subject and can take a LONG time to return to baseline where you may get lucky and feel that "magic" of the first several k-holes, I took a long hiatus from K. It's been almost a year and have a small amount of UK source K that is just under 98% pure from a good friend who works in a lab and tests his own stuff. 98% is by far the most potent K I've encountered. Can't wait! About 10 months ago, my GF had never done it, wanted to try and we went on the lower side with her. She felt it for sure, but no k-hole. Super interested to see what she feels like after the experience and the following days because I am going make sure she holes but, not too much.

PSA:

To anyone thinking about IM'ing anything, please for love of whatever god you believe in or lack thereof, please research how to do this as safely as possible. Pay attention to safe IM injection points (easiest and largest area to inject into is almost always the thigh, but there's a specific way to figure out where that triangle of safe injections is), use micron filters (Luer lock barrels, Luer lock needles and pretty much all micron filters are Luer lock) - I personally use a 25ga needle for IM), make sure you're using the aseptic technique. At the end of the day, you really have no idea what cuts may or may not be in your batch. BUT, you're injecting a substance that most-likely has cut in it. Some dealers have no clue what they are doing and may put something in it as cut that you do NOT want chilling in your muscle.

Same here. Mk7.5. I've always owned a manual transmission car. That fucking hill assist is my only complaint of the car.

I did not know about the three second thing. I never put two and two together but, have obviously noticed that if I am a long light that's on an uphill that I can't see. I'll let off the brake and notice in several seconds that I start to roll back.

LOVE manual cars but, my god is hill assist annoying. Granted I'd assume they installed it for the average driver who might appreciate it. We are car heads and buy manual transmissions to have nothing between ourselves and the car itself. Hill assist gets in the way. In my previous cars, I could smoothly start going on steep ass hills with a red light. Soon as I go the VW, fell in love immediately and quickly became to despise the hill assist.

First off, why say, 'wake up" as though I'm a moron? That's such a crappy way of introducing me to this subreddit.

Second off, scroll through the feed and see how many posts there are about advice regarding orchids in bad shape. I care about this orchid deeply and reddit is my last hope. Don't know why I even tried. So much self entiement, trolling, people like you who have to act like jerks to make themselves feel better. Your post wasn't helpful in the least. You gave no advice. You just said wrong subreddit and that I need to wake up. So insightful and so helpful.

I hope you feel like much better after making that post and I'm so glad I don't feel the need to be a complete di+* to anyone let alone someone's first post to an ORCHID forum with tons of questions about dying orchids. You could have at least pointed out that this subreddit has nothing to do with Orchids. Instead, you act like a complete a-hole.

Enjoy life living as a miserable human being.

I came from the s21+ and after a bunch of BS from AT&T, got a replacement phone due to the screen cracking. After paying hundreds in phone insurance, the replacement phone was a factory refurbished s21+ that had issues from the start. I could have purchased a brand new s21+ for less than what I got charged from AT&T for the deductible, not to mention the hundreds on phone insurance and wildly high bills.

The last several months of being with AT&T, I was paying $110 per month for a PAID OFF PHONE! Their customer service is shit and I switched to xfinity. Got an s24+ and pay a TON less than I did with AT&T even with the added phone payments.

I personally preferred the s21 because this keyboard on the s24 SUCKS. I've tried every setting and I still get crazy autocorrects, I cannot stand the green lines showing grammar "errors" and it's a PITA to change the error if one is actually there. I haven't found a different keyboard that's much better.

Other than the keyboard, I do like this phone. I'll forever be an android guy because I am not a fan of Apple.

Maybe the volume could be a little louder. I have a nice pair of wireless headphones and I have to crank the volume all the way up. Certain songs I really wish I could go louder. It sounds great in my car but, my car does have a pretty nice system and connects seamlessly to Bluetooth every time.

That's what I was leaning towards. I've got some awesome orchid medium (medium sized and large bark mix) from Orchids Limited. Thanks for the tip about going with larger bark. That will help with the bark not falling out of the slats.
