A Week of Cocaine & Hookers in Mexico Saved a Man’s Life
As usual, Reddit has provided us with another very amusing anecdote from an interesting fellow who decided that he wanted to take his own life “Leaving Las Vegas” style – that is, he wanted to party hard for the best week of his life first and go out on a high.
The problem with that, of course, is that a week spent snorting copious amounts of cocaine and banging numerous hookers can remind someone just how awesome life can be sometimes.
Reddit user “plzsendhalp” took to the website to tell his tale of how he had been battling depression for a long time before deciding he’d had enough, and he was going to commit suicide.
But in the same breath, he’d decided that if you’re going to kill yourself, why not take all the money you’ve got (two thousand dollars) and blow it on a trip from Austin, Texas to Mexico, a sleazy motel room, coke and prostitutes first.
“Went to Mexico to buy barbiturates for a humane and peaceful death,” he wrote on Reddit. “Decided that if I was gonna die anyway I might as well f*%& a prostitute before it was all over.”
“After that a cab driver offered to sell me cocaine. One thing lead to another and I got a room above a whorehouse equipped with a heart-shaped bed, a stripper pole, and a hot tub.”
I guess if there’s ever a time to adopt a “why not?” attitude, it’s after you’ve already decided to kill yourself anyway!
“Spent a full week snorting coke off girls, popping pain meds, drinking tequila, eating handfuls of Viagra to fight the whiskey/coke penis, and had multiple threesomes,” he continued. “Somewhere in the midst of my coke-fueled orgy I decided life wasn’t so bad after all.”
Oddly enough, this anonymous social media user has become a kind of role model for people suffering depression! That’s not to say that anyone battling depression should go down the “Mexico, drugs and hookers” path, but he did go on to say in the comments that there will always be something worth living for even in the most desperate of scenarios, and that anyone with similar issues should hang in there.
Also oddly enough, he reported that he packed his bags and returned home at the end of the week without any STD’s! A miracle!
