In this spoken monologue, Dallas Bragg addresses men who are trying to quit chemsex or meth use and who entertain the common rationalization of having "one more time" as a final, purposeful use. He systematically deconstructs this mindset, explaining that a true purposeful last use never occurs because the decision to use has already been made. He outlines five key reasons the "one more time" notion is deceptive: (1) there is never a purposeful final use; (2) attempting to negotiate with a chemical creates a no‑win situation where the substance always wins; (3) asking for permission reveals that the decision to use is already made, indicating low self‑trust; (4) seeking loopholes reflects the "meth speak" mindset, where users constantly look for ways to justify use; and (5) the idea that a single use could be the last is unrealistic. Bragg concludes by inviting listeners to consider additional ways the "one more time" belief is misleading, positioning his talk as a recovery‑oriented, cautionary perspective.

There's this common thought process that I see in a lot of men who want to stop using chemsex, and that is the one more time. I just want to use one more time. Let me just get it out of my system. Let me just have one last hurrah, right? Here is why one last time is a deception. Okay, number one, it never is. Every— there has never been a one last time that's done on purpose. There's going to be a last time, but it's never going to be your purposeful one last time. Number 2, you're negotiating with a chemical. When you try to negotiate with Tina, there is a no-win situation. The substance will always win. Number 3, asking is the decision is made. What that means is if you're asking if I can do this one last time, Your decision to use has already been made. Let's be real here. Low self-trust. If you're trying to have one last time, there is an erosion. There's not a trust in yourself that you can be chemsex-free, that you can stop this. This is your statement to say, I do not trust me. Next, loophole is meth speak. And what that means is if you're trying to find loopholes, That's how we think when we're using meth. How does a meth user think? He's always trying to find a loophole to try to use. If that's how you're still thinking, you're still in meth speak. And finally, one more time could be the last time. Nothing more to say about that. I hope this helps. Tell me, what else? What other, what other ways is one last time a deception?
