    Mephedrone started out so innocuously. “It’s like X but with no comedown! And you can redose! But you’ll smell like cat piss.” I try it, maybe 15ish years ago.

    Then a few months later, doing it every other weekend, I’m sitting with some friends and we have a giant pile on a table. The stuff is basically free, anyway. We’re all taking turns schnerting lines. My nostril starts bleeding, and clogs. I use the other one. It also starts bleeding and clogs. I can’t breathe through my nose anymore. Everyone else is still railing, and ALL I CAN THINK OF for the rest of the night is

    “How can I snort more of that”

    I hadn’t plugged anything yet, or I would have found a way to covertly do that.

    That was the last night I touched mephedrone. I vowed never to have that feeling again.
