Poppers ?

[Trick]

I was planning on creating a thread about poppers because I wanted to wean myself from them. While they do help me, whether for real or psychologically, to take well-endowed tops, the headache that comes after outweighs their benefits.

 

My question is how do I quit poppers? If I do, will it mean that I have to stay away from XXXXXXL tops?

Just get rid of all your poppers.

 

I'll send you my address.

If you're not into your partner getting rowdy and wanting his brains fucked out all night, then I understand. But you haven't seen my #1.

All this talk of #1 leads me to wonder... is there a #2 and #3?? ?

My question is how do I quit poppers?

I feel your pain. I loved poppers. It got to the point where

I was using them regularly even just to jerk off. Of course,

the effect wains and I needed more and more for less and

less.

 

In addition since I’m a top, I had to be very careful about

regulating my use of them. Add to that some reports of retinal

damage in men who use poppers, and I decided I had to quit....

before I went blind (maybe Mom was on to something there....)

 

I threw out every last bottle and made sure I was in an environment

where is wasn’t so easy to get them on the spur of the moment.

At first I craved them pretty bad. I did the usual addict behavior

like looking for the one hidden bottle, checking the trash to make

sure there wasn’t one there, going online and looking at bottles

for sale, intentionally seeking the bottoms I knew who used them....

 

After a month or so I was fine and felt kind a foolish about the

whole thing. Now, I don’t mind if my bottom wants/needs them,

but it’s really easy for me to abstain.

 

I wish you luck. Trust me, you’re better off without them.

[LookingAround]

They really are a gateway drug and so addictive.

Why are there no containers that have some type of hinged or pop-up cap that can be easily opened with a thumb rather than the awkward screw-on top.

[Rudynate]

Sorry, but that this information is incorrect.

 

The original amyl nitrate in break open vials (hence the name “poppers”)

were for treating angina (chest pain) and occasionally as part of a cocktail

used to treat cyanide poisonings. There are now better medications for

both so you rarely see real amyl nitrate poppers anymore.

 

You are thinking of an ammonia based product (aka “smelling salts”) that

also comes in glass vials that gets broken and placed under patient’s nose

to provide a noxious stimuli that “awakens” them when they pass out. It

provides no clinical benefit. Since it is essentially useless (and has the

unpleasant side effect of making the whole room smell like shit) you rarely

see it any more either.

 

 

I'm sure you meant to write "amyl nitrite."

[Rudynate]

Spray poppers are not any sort of nitrite. The are ethyl chloride, a primitive inhalant anesthetic agent. You have to be careful with them. Since they are an anesthetic agent, like ether or chloroform, they can knock you out cold.

[Rudynate]

Best brand I know of right now is Everest Premium. They are isoamyl nitrite and come from Europe.

I'd say at least 1/4th if not more of the escorts ( bottoms or versatile) that I hired-and I'm not talking about guys I picked up off the street, but reputable guys I usually found out about here-have used them. That includes both porn star and non-porn star escorts. Lots of hook-ups have used them too.

 

Personally I can't use them as they can kill you if you are on Viagra or the like-but even if I weren't, I don't like the head rush it gives, and it leaves me with a headache. I never liked the head-rush I got the one or two times I used dip or the one time someone gave me a whip-it to try.

You are correct. It’s unfortunately a common mistake.

I corrected it in my original post. Thanks again.

I'm reviving this thread to ask a question about poppers training videos.

 

Decades ago I got introduced to poppers by a boyfriend with incredible oral talents. He stuck the bottle under my nose, told me to inhale, lay back and get blown and edged. He loved giving head this way and I loved receiving it. After that I would use them occasionally for almost 15 years. I stopped as they seemed to lose their power and instead give me headaches and caused me to come too quickly and only half-erect.

 

Now I can get turned on by watching a guy get poppered up and stroking. For example (best with the audio turned off):

 

https://www.xvideos.com/video8779029/mike_basement_jack

 

But I don't get the appeal of all poppers training videos that come up. I'm just wondering if anyone cares to share an opinion or experience. If I followed the instructions for all the frequency and holding of the hits, I'd end up with raging headache and a floppy-dick, unsatisfying orgasm. No judgement at all. If anything, some envy for somebody who could do that much poppers and get pleasure out of it.

[CuriousByNature]

Amen.

 

It's funny - I've really always wanted sex to be simply about bodies, emotions, sensations, sharing, etc, but not objects. So when a guy has to pull out a bottle and sniff from it to enjoy sex, I just don't relate. I'm also not a drug user at all. I'm not really judgmental about others' substance use as long as they're in control of it, but I don't like it having to involve me.

 

I had a hookup experience once with a guy who, mid-play, suddenly got up and said he needed a cigarette. And he went off to have one. I found that very rude, and rather galling that his nic fit was more crucial than the fun we were having. When he came back, I was dressed, I made the most gracious apology that I could, and let him go. (Now, to be honest, if he had needed a cigarette AFTER, it wouldn't have been so bad. It was the abrupt way he had to interrupt the sex for the sake of that.)

I don't like the smell or taste of cigarettes, but I can see myself stopping to go make a tuna sandwich. Now that I think of it, that probably explains a lot.

Probably over 1/2 of the bottoms I've topped have used them. But do tops use poppers a lot? I don't. For one thing they give me a headache. And I never liked that head rush feel. For another thing I'm usually on viagra. But I didn't like the head rush feeling before that.

I did occasionally 20-25 years ago. I would hook up with a guy, sometimes in a 3-way situation. We liked martinis, 420 and poppers. We would go at like rabbits. Happy times. Now it's sans the poppers, and just me and my hand. Then Netflix. Oh, who I am kidding? It's usually straight to Netflix.

[+ pepa_e_mango]

I've never used them but a guy I've been seeing for about 5 years uses them, he's a top, he always offers them to me but I just don't use them. I have a history of trouble with substance abuse and don't want to take any risks of falling back into it after many years clean. My friend gets the biggest erections I've ever seen and he claims it's the poppers and his orgasms are epic every time; I keep a bottle in my travel bag in case he ever runs out!

[MscleLovr]

Maybe I’m naive but I thought only bottoms used poppers. I‘ve only had 1 boyfriend who used them, and it was pretty much every time I fucked him in a long session. He told me they made getting fucked more intense and more pleasurable.

I think @tassojunior, the OP, was referring to his boyfriend/fuckbuddy. I believe he ranks his lovers, possibly by frequency of coitus, possibly by prowess in bed ;-)

[rvwnsd]

That's right, Section 907-12 Subsection Q of the 'Gay Sex Code, 1993 Revision' CLEARLY states "Poppers shall not be consumed by tops, versatiles performing in the 'top' role, and bottoms performing in the 'top' role." The Committee of 69 has yet to make a ruling on bottoms and versatiles who have consumed poppers while bottoming during a session and subsequently switched to performing a top role in the same session.

 

But seriously...

 

The guy who introduced me to poppers was strictly a top and used poppers when fucking guys. He loved the sensation.

 

Good thing for him there is no such thing as a Gay Sex Code, 1993 Revision.

[Populist Fury]

Since @tassojunior started the thread, I'll go ahead & ask here.... Did he get banned or what happened to him????

 

I hope he's safe & ok <3

Is it possible @rvwnsd that poppers gave him a deeper understanding of a bottom?

[+ Yellowrod]

The new formulation of poppers seem to be so hit or miss. I remember in my 20's and 30's they were amazing and would bring on the most incredible orgasms when I topped or bottomed. Now, many bring on huge headaches or makes Mr. Softee come out. So I've been avoiding for some time now (and I also can't seem to find a good source - used to get them at Mr. S Leather, but the last time I was in there they didn't seem to carry the brand I liked anymore.)

[orville]

As a bottom I like them because they help me to "take" more of my man. But then, as with any chemical substance, one doesn't want to overdose. It's an enhancer, NOT a replacement of the experience. Bottoms who do it in excess can become messy and tops could become inoperative. Also, not good mix with heavy use of hard drugs because of the stress on the heart. 50s plus should be careful.

Not sure whether it was "understanding," but it was absolutely deeper! ??

So true, so true. There are a few sites whose poppers don't give me a headache, softie, or next-day asthma issues. PM me for details.
