      @Dharmabum9287 I'm with you. You know what made me really self-loathing was being in that environment, trying to be in that crowd, trying to please other gay men. The mainstream, drug using, super fit, money obsessed gay lifestyle. If you're into that and you absolutely love your life, good for you. But I just couldn't stand the cattiness and the judgment for not fitting the mould. So I got out and thats when I started to really love myself.
      My comment doesnt have much to do with poppers but at most I dont think they help. A lot of young gay men need more self reflection, not drug dependence.

    I'm a straight dude and tried poppers with my girlfriend while I was living in Amsterdam last year. Honestly, its a "just ok" high; you get this nice warmth all around your body. Your sense of touch is a lot more sensitive. Makes sex feel great. Unfortunately only lasts 30 seconds, so can lead to compulsive dosing. But yeah I can see how it's really hard on your heart: The last time I took it I thought I was gonna get a heart attack, my heart rate was pumping wayyy too fast for comfort.
    Inhalants carry risk, but so do many other activities like drinking alcohol or smoking cigarettes. I believe anything in moderation is fine. When you abuse a substance too frequently, the risks to your physical and mental health increase exponentially. Ensuring that people have a regulated product that doesn't contain adulterants is more important to me.

      Something I found that helps with the heart rate increase and blood pressure drop is to clench your left arm, left leg, then right leg and right arm. Do it a few times, I feel it helps blood circulation so there's not so much pressure on your heart. It's just a feeling, by no means do I know if it actually helps or not.

    Wow and I actually spent money on something I thought was actual cleaner for VHS equipment. I knew the website looked seedy and thought it was weird it came by usps. A friend was over to pick up a refurbished double VHS recorder/player and noticed a bottle of double scorpio on my desk. He asked me if I liked to play, left me in total confusion, he couldnt stop laughing when I told him what I use it for and saw that I was serious. Nearly fell to the floor when he noticed the gas mask I use when cleaning with chems. Thought I was a total badass sticking my q tips into that gold bottle while under a vent hood with a gas mask.

If anything, it actually is really good full eraser head and upper cylinder cleaner. Minimal residue, better than what you could buy in a hobby shop in bulk.

    I have always heard that popper use is mainly only risky for men who have had a heart attack or other cardiac conditions. I have also heard that combining Viagra and poppers can be risky. I used to go to a sex club and every once in awhile someone would say, "OMG, some older man died here a few nights ago. He was snorting poppers." I do not know if that was just "urban legend" type hearsay or it actually happened. Considering the variety of chemicals and compounds some people take (including prescription medications, hello?) how would they know it was just the poppers? Anyway, I am not convinced poppers are any worse for us than fast food or soda pop; I have even heard frequent cell phone use causes cancer! EVERYTHING is risky; life is risky. And life without any pleasure is the riskiest of all !

Amyl nitrate was available in 70s, for example, to medical personel for complete EKG tests. They started better records of it in drug logs in 1980 so, too hard to get it anymore. Very few complaints about "headaches" from Amyl Nitrate. Strong, nice, quick buzz. Butyl seems less severe, dirtier blend, so headaches happen.

I don’t think it should be banned, but at the same time watching this made me not want to use poppers. I dig hypersexuality, but I also love having some form of connection with my partner. If you only have a connection with someone because of a drug, then maybe you should take a break from sex. Sex should be a connection between two or more people, it shouldn’t just be whether or not you got a double scorpio in your pocket. And if your this connected to poppers, then I would suggest you re-evaluate your sex life. Try lube or something lol, but there’s a difference being Sex Positive and Popper Crazy

      Your blood pressure dropped. You might just be sensitive to it or sniffed too much. When I used to mix weed and liquor I would also get banging in the ears, dark vision, heavy sweating and no balance. A nurse told me why one time. It's not the intended effect, just an unfortunate case

    I first came across Amyl around 1976 or 77 so friends purchased from what was then Croydon markets SE Melbourne we were all around 12/13 years old no checks were done it was sold freely,, I had no idea what it was being used for at that point.It was about a year later after being kicked out of home for being Gay when my eyes were opened to the possibilities firsty on the dance floors of clubs in Melbourne and Sydney then well a lot of you will know what followed, when I read the government was thinking of banning it I naturally went on line and had a bit of a shopping spree, as people have written in the comments it is not addictive the only harm I have seen is like a bit of blistering around the nose, but that was only because the person virtually had the bottle taped to his nose, if it is sold to adults leave it alone in more than 40 years of playing with it I have never heard of anyone suffering any major health risk for using it.

      & you don´t correlate this to gay AIDS, no? PCP, KS & demetia was solely in gay AIDS, no other group! Why was there no reports of PCP & KS within gay culture before 1980? 2 cases in NYC of KS in 77. Poppers = AIDS!

    I dont do drugs or drink but i believe if people can use this responsibly then there shouldn't be no issue. I don't like drugs affecting my sexual intercourse but to each their own.

    I've heard it can damage your vision also. After I use it, I see a green spot in my vision . This can't be good!! I am going to cut back myself. I get a bad headache if I do too much when it's a new bottle it's stronger

      I think, like most of the drug/chemical reaction to our body, there is a compatibility issue, so I think you just cannot use poppers, like me as well.
      My gay friend explain it to me, when I asked about it, and he told me some people can get the high & pleasure from it, but some people had opposite reaction. I tried his (i think it's RUSH as I remember) and by just open the bottle, get a whiff from distance, I quickly get headache and had nausea reaction.
      My friend quickly said, "got to window and take a big fresh air" and after that I given a glass of warm water to drink. Then he said, "that is the opposite reaction that I tell you, for someone who cannot use poppers." Even he open his drawer full of popper, with many kind of scent, and tried the weakest one based by his experience (smell like cinnamon roll), but again I get the headache and nausea....
      his friend tole him maybe I was not used to it. But EVERY SINGLE TIME when I visit his room, if I can smell some poppers aroma, I quickly had dizzy feeling. But funny thing is, I can determine how much sex he had, by just popper smell. If strong, definitely he had sex for few minutes ago. if just a soft lingering, then definitely he had sex few hours ago. If I cannot smell at all, it mean he not had any sex that day.

      Same happened to me too. At one point the dude accidentally spilled half of the bottle on my face, some of which went in my nose. For 10 min straight I've been seeing nothing but green dots and was so close to passing out. I love the euphoria it gives u but there's no way in hell I'm taking it ever again lmaoo
