recreational Viagra?!?!?

Sign in to disble this ad
[mods, feel free to delete if this subject is considered inappropriate]

An old friend of mine was in town recently and the topic of conversation somehow got around to Recreational Pharmaceuticals, Legal And Otherwise ...and he happened to mention that he really likes taking Viagra just for fun.

He claims he doesn't "need" it, that everything in the Mr. Willy department works just fine without chemical enhancement, but that popping Viagra as a recreational drug enhances the Horny Factor® significantly and can make sex ultra-enjoyable in sort of the same way that certain hallucinogens make doing...well, anything ultra-enjoyable. "Hyper-enhanced reality" or whatnot.

I'm intrigued. I too have a perfectly functioning Mr. Willy, so don't need to chug ED drugs for their intended purpose, but I kinda miss the old days when taking drugs for entertainment was common. And the idea of a hyper-enhanced reality that mostly impacted ones Horny Factor® strikes me as being far safer, more responsible, and just plain funner than anything that might significantly alter conciousness (or affect ones ability to operate a motor vehicle).

Anyone else taken ED medications just to be...um..."hyper-real", and not because they had to? What's it like? Worth messing around with?

I wouldn't recommend it, and I'm probably the horniest guy on the planet. Imagine if something went wrong and you accidentally checked out. Your life, and all you accomplished, would be diminished to 'the dude that died with the priaprism'.

Is taking Viagra recreationally good for metal?

Sounds like possible fun but I don't like rec-drugs for the reason mentioned.
A number of great players have gone away using them.

Read more about the statin damage repair drug known as Viagra:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001046

Some side effects can be serious. If you experience any of the following symptoms, call your doctor immediately:
sudden severe loss of vision (see below for more information)
blurred vision
sudden decrease or loss of hearing

I wonder if they work like anti-depressant drugs by causing your brain to produce a certain hormone. A lot of those types of drugs will ultimately mess up your chemical imbalance by causing your brain to need that drug in order to produce that certain hormone. That's why bipolar and depressed people are more dangerous to themselves when they come off those medications. Their chemicals are more imbalanced than before they started taking the medication.

Cialis, not Viagra

I regularly use 1/3rd of a Cialis pill for "enhanced performance" . . . I like to give my partner (my ex-wife) a "better ride" . . . . . .

just saying . . .

And I think Cialis has less side effects than Viagra . . . at least that's what my Doctor said . . .

No one using ED meds ever "needs" them. Just like no one in prison is guilty.

But what is the point of trying to fake the sexual encounter by supposedly enhancing it with drugs?

One can only take so many squirmies to the eye before your sight begins to diminish. Just ask all the regulars on talkfacial.come

A friend of mine went to the doctor and asked for 3 trial doses. The
Doctor wanted to know why so many. My friend said that he was expecting
a visit over the weekend from his GF, his ex-wife and his ex- mistress.

The Doctor asked him to check in on Monday to be sure he was ok.
When my friend came in, his right arm was in a sling.

'What happened?' the Doctor asked.

'Nobody showed up!' said my friend.

Blurred vision is a feature, not a side effect.
It helps getting it up with an ugly partner.
