Drugs

[Icchy <3]

Have you ever experimented with drugs?
Maybe you take them regulary or maybe you want help and support giving up.

Whatever you experince, dicuss Drugs here.

[Soul-Slayer]

Nope, I haven't taken drugs and probably never will, I do know a person that takes dubes, or weed. If Nicotine is considered a drug then I have tooken it.

[maximoose666]

Nah, one of my best mates had his life completely ****ed up by smoing weed (he got expelled from 2 schools, ended up taking his GCSEs at home and got bad marks) so I'm not gonna start.

[Rorschach]

after viewing this video (which is very informative) i will never do pot
the many effects of drugs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHzdsFiBbFc). i on a couple of occasions have had some hard liquor (i believe the strongest i had was 100 proof)

[SLVR]

Yeah.My friend had a blunt and i hit it. ZOMG such a bad head ache but I had no pain in my sprained foot and i heard things.
I dont do drugs since then

[Chrono Detector]

Never did drugs. Though some of my friends have, but I'm not curious enough to try.

[Reefern86]

I wouldn't be much of a hippy if i HADN"T/don't do drugs now would i?

[Shiki]

Nope.

I'm a good kid. :)

[Shinomori]

I wouldn't be much of a hippy if i HADN"T/don't do drugs now would i?

You have the word reefer in your username.

Nothing more needs to be said on this topic.

And no, I never have and never will. Waste of time, money, and brain cells.

[재]

Yeah I do drugs
I need to take Panadol when I'm sick which is counted as Mild Drug :p
Still a drug :p
as for other, no, Will never try it, I'm Going to kill the Drug Dealers :p

[Future]

No, i'll probably never take drugs... they're for losers, i hate drugs... (except for alcohol and smokes... people can have them all they want)

[raisins]

no XD no drugs....
except for medicines? O_o

[bbnflpn]

yah ive done them.

nothing illigal really just weed. on the rare occasion. to relive pain when i dont have any pain killers.

i do drink on occasion, and i have mixed my other drugs with alcohol too.

but i have been on my share of prescription drugs, alot of them opiates, benzos, that kind of thing.

i use to work for a drug and alcohol rehab, it was very intersting, they were all drug offenders, (except for my felons, i never asked what they did) they all had their stories,

drugs are bad people, weed is not as bad as people make it out to be, but it is still bad.

[Lust]

i never try it even my friends alway persuade me to do it since it "kill" you

[A2k]

Hmm, interesting.

Well, having always lived my life one step at a time and day by day as it comes; I have never been ashamed to say that: "I will try anything once, and if I like it, heck I might just try it again."

Now in the concept of "drugs" I think the prime focus of this discussion was aiming towards cannabis, pot, weed, skunk...whichever name from the large variety, you happen to be more familliar with - perhaps not specifically limited to such, but I get the feeling that was somewhat the main point.

Anyway, I smoke cigarettes, now in truth, not for some morbid, pointless and in all honesty fake new years resolution B.S. I have been contemplating quitting smoking for some time now. Having my own house now and travelling from A to B, up and down hill on a push bike for 2 miles, anything up to 4 times a day, has shown me that perhaps I am not as healthy as I used to be and that it might be wise for my own chest, and my pocket to pack in smoking cigs.

On the whole "weed" scenario; in relation to Maxi's comment, that is entirely dependant on the PERSON, and their character, their will, their own drive.

I have probably smoked cannabis for more years than I truly care to remember, and in all honesty, the B.S. warnings, advertisements and all the fuss governments like to make of the drug, and it's devastating effects it will have on you, and how it will lead you onto harder and even more dangerous drugs...is pure bollocks.

That is all about the weakness of a person and how little self control and will they have.

I have never had a bad grade in school, I went past school, onto college and then University. Following that I have recently settled down into my own 3 bedroom house, and found myself a very lovely partner to share my life with.

No, I don't claim my life is all roses and pot-pouri, but I can guarentee you this, the ONLY reason my having smoked cannabis for knocking on 6 or 7 years, has NOT had such adverse effects on the size, of my brain, my thought process, my memory............. etc. etc. etc. all the B.S. scientists like to throw at society about cannabis; is because I CONTROL the smoking of the drug, it does not hav any control over my life.

People might say BULL, it's a drug and therefore it is addictive. o_O

I mean come on...WTF?

In all honesty cigarettes are tenfold more addictive than cannabis.

Now as bbnlflpn has just said, cannabis is not as bad as goverments, research scientists investigating it's effects, and people in general like to make it out to be.

Take Holland for a prime example; does anyone have any idea why it is that Holland has the lowest crime rate period?

Because having legalised cannabis, people do not delve for harder, nastier drugs. They do not need to steal to support their habbits, because thanks to government taxing of the drug it has been reduced in price and made freely available to those who desire it.

With the tax being brought into the COUNTRY itself through the sale of drugs, rather than heading out to all the big drug dealers shipping drugs into and out of the country, Holland could probably sustain a large proportion of it society quite managably on the income of cannabis alone.

Now granted having thus far supported the whole drug scene in respect to cannabis, I cannot say I could agree with it's use anymore.

It is something that when abused by a weak willed person or for that matter, exceptionally abused by even the strongest people, it can become the same kind of inescable addiction people face when trying to quit smoking.

In all honesty, I would rather sit back with my feet up smoking a pure skunk spliff, than smoking a cig with a pint of beer to watch the football on the telly. (or something like that)

Why? because in contrast, cannabis smoking is less problem causing than a pissed up drunk, who turns violent after a few too many beers.

Is healthier than smoking cigs.

But...in truth give them all up, all 3 are cynical drugs that could control you if you let them.

Before someone jumps on my ass about this post...if you have ever seen heroin, cocaine, ecstasy and various other higher classification drug users turn from any of the previously mentioned milder drugs, (cannabis, cigarettes and alcohol) onto the life they lead now, then you yourself will know that taking that kind of life is not a nice one.

Why would these 3 milder, lower classification drugs turn these kinds of people onto harder more dangerous drugs?

Weakness, lack of willpower, the desire to go one step further and see how far you can push.

When they get pushed back...they damn well KNOW about it, in the form of a seriously big kick in the teeth.

That is why I say if you do decide that cannabis or cigarettes, or even alcohol is something you might be interested in, then make sure you control it, and not the other way around.

It is very easy to control it, it's merely self restraint. =)

ehh...ramble done with. =P

[Jimmyz]

I use to smoke ALOT of weed, and i mean all the time, im quite ashamed really, and my quality of life did suffer somewhat.

it started out a couple of tokes at a party, then within like 2 months it was getting stoned at lunch time at school down the road on the way to the butchers (where we use to get our lunch) my grades suffered quite abit (got predicted a's and a stars, got b's. i never had much money lost my girlfriend cos i was high all the time and didnt realise she was unhappy until it was too late.

then i went on to ecstacy at clubs and parties. when, in one night, 4 really good looking and nice girls turned me down because they new i took drugs, 3 of the 4 said something similar to "i'd like to see you more, but i dont date drug users sorry" after that i was all "i've had enough" and just stopped.

wasnt a great idea just stopping because that messed me up, i still am messed up with bad anxiety etc, but thats coming along with the help im getting, and i feel sooo much better now then when i was on them, and before, because now ive been to the worst i will allow myself get too, and now im back and i just apprechiate everything so much more.

from my expirence i would advise against drugs, to some extent, but on the other hand, i would say maye try them, and then see how great life is without them, and how you dont need them!

sorry for bad spelling if any! james.

[Mr.Schaf]

I smoked weed a few times but then decided not to do it again. Now (about a year from the last time I did it) I see it was a good decision since two of my friends have already become less intelligent and forgetful because of the excessive consumption of cannabis at the young age of 15 and 16. Sometimes they are just annoying and I don't ever want to become like that. I was also offered Cocain and LSD some months ago but of course didn't take it. Anyway I sometimes drink alcohol at the weekend which is ok in my opinion (well sometimes I also drink a lot at the weekend and one time I had to vomit but I hope and think it was the last time). I also don't smoke only 2 times on New Years Eve and one time when we played Poker I smoked Vanilla Cigars for the coolness factor ^^.

One time I played around with someones baggy playing hacky sack with it and putting it into hot water to try out if it will make a good tea(yes i was indeed a bit bored^^)..believe me this is not a good idea if you've just gotten up and are not really abled yet to run over long distances. xD

[Guy]

No, I don't do drugs, and I never will. I was brought up in a traditional family, and taught to hate drugs. I think all drug dealers need to be executed for ruining other people's lives. In addition, my ancestors have known people who got addicted to opium after the opium war in China. They sold out all their belongings just for poppies. It is a deep part of my family history tragedy, so I will never do drugs.

[RahxephoN]

okay lets see....i've never tried weed n stuff like that in my whole life but i have some friends who smoke some weed regularly n i'm gonna tell you one thing.....their brain cells dont exist anymore.
why?
cause weed destroys 1 mil of your brain cells each time you try it:)
after thinking of it carefully experimenting n becoming addicted come really close after a while;)

PS:i couldnt expect anyone else but you icchy to make this thread:p

[Undying]

I don't knoe about all them sceintists, goverments...whatever.

I sometimes smoke cigs and drink - usually with friends around. You know, sorta to "kick into the party".

I don't do it regulary and frankly there is exacty one reason for that: money.

I don't have a steady income to support any such addiction (like cigs, for example), so I just don't do it.

As for weed or other such things, well, I never tried and never intend to, again, because of money.

[M-50]

I have never taken drugs before and never will. Period. Drugs ruin lives as maximoose has kindly pointed out, whether or not that was his intention.

[Icchy <3]

PS:i couldnt expect anyone else but you icchy to make this thread:p

Lol, whats that supposed to mean?

I've never tried drugs and (I hope) I never will. That said, drugs can take over your life even if you take them once, and thats not a chance I EVER want to take.
Plus, I'm younger that all you guys have tried weed etc.. I'm not supposed to take drugs :P

[rhoden23]

never did any drugs and never will do. life is too short why make it more shorter.

[Jimmyz]

TBH, the "killing XXX amount of braincells" each try is pretty crap tbh. i smoked weed for the last 2 years of school (the 2 years in which you write all your essays and sit your final exams etc) if i put effort (i will get to this in a min) into it i would have god a's and a stars. (highest marks you can get) regardless that i was smoking like 10-12 joints a week.
i didnt try not because of the weed, but becasue i hated the school, i hated the teachers, i hated the other students.
im more intelligent now, then i was before i smoked weed. in yr befor ei started smoking weed, we were given a iq test at school, moderated and everything so it was pretty accurate. i got a 115. not a great score huh? (apparently the world avergae is only something like 90-100, and 100-110 in the more economically developed countires) and now, after 2 years of moderate to high usage of cannabis, i have a 135 (mensa test were getting done for free in local mall in september)
so all that about losing your iq due to cannabis is bullshit. people get thicker due to laziness, which again people say is due to cannabis, but i was so much more proactive when i was smoking it etc.
and im not 1 in a million, all the people i know who smoke it (about 40?) only liek 1 in 5 has went down hill since smoking it. and thats because they went onto other drugs.
so, if you show self restraint and have motivation in life, it wont **** you up.
cant comment on the other drugs, speed ****ed me over for a while, and pills drained me of my energy for days after taking them.

[silentyas]

I have never tried drugs in my life and I don't think that there is any use of them.
After all they don't really help at all even if you were carrying all the problems of the world on your back, the problems will remain after using drugs and they may even get worse WITH DRUGS

[Xferox 02]

Weed!!!! 50% of my school is on drugs, so yeah i got some good weed. but i dont get addicted to it. like twice a month, and i dont drink, when i drink i lose my temper and my words can really hurt some one if that happends. so.......yeah

[Drac666]

Done weed multiple times and all my friends are either dealers or burn outs mind u im a jock pretty much and i quit cuz of sports but i think most people take it far to seriously my close friend for example smokes 3 bowls a day (good weed) and has a 97 average has a consistant job and gets invovled in school so i dunno i dont really wanna do it any more althought it does give you some good times and some bad *Tip* If every time you drink you throw up take 1 hit of weed b4 u drink and u wont trust me it works Weed is an anti nausant and its also good at preventing hang overs

[Xferox 02]

this was this guy that grow weeds in his backyard. one day he didnt know theres a new family moving next to him and saw the weed in his back yard, the next day he was cold busted lol, what a retard

[Ethanol]

Drugs are bad...mmkay.

I don't do them....mmkay.

lol

[Drac666]

Personally i dont think theres any thing wrong with recreational weed use I.e smoking once a week or when ur going to a party cuz honsetly it doesnt effect u that much mentally at least

[Xferox 02]

party smoker is a good thing, but not like everyday smoker that go though like 2 packs aday

[Nesquik]

or sometimes smoker

[angelicdesire]

never have and never will

[Xferox 02]

yeah i look up to my uncle, he never drank or smoked in his life, and his filthy rich

[Reefern86]

i don't understand how they can possibly be bad? What is wrong with doing certain drugs? true some can kill u...but its also true that some have medicinal perposes. if u dont want to do it cool, but if u want to...there is nothing wrong with it at all. Ur body! Ur choice!

[Guy]

Um... morphine has medicinal purposes. I certainly hope you don't do drugs like those on daily basis? Drugs make people sell out their whole family. My ancestors know friends who sold out their family treasures and heirlooms for opium in China after the opium war.

[Momo]

I never experimented ... with drugs... EW, with just listening that word, sounds nasty. xD

[Future]

Drugs are for the weak, like truck drivers... if they can't stay awake for 3 days straight without drugs... they're in the wrong business =P

[A2k]

Lol...cannabis kills braincells? ROFFLE. Then I must be the most docile and braindead person I know.

As it happens, apart from people who surpass me in age and resultantly wisdom and general life experience, my girlfriend is the only person I know who actually has a higher intellect than I do amongst my friends.

That comming from someone who has just recently sworn off cannabis after something like 7 years of pure abuse to weed...says to me, that it's pure bull.

The whole killing of braincells, paranoia and the various other things that are claimed to come with the over abuse of drugs like pot is only dependant on the person.

Now for some of my friends, yes, they have become paranoid, and some of them have indeed slackened off in the intelligence bracket. However if a trained intellect and a strong person is subjected to over abuse of cannabis they are in total control of how these rumoured side effects of long term abuse react in themselves.

Just to clarify by over abuse in 7 years, I really do mean ABUSE.

Generally cannabis (skunk variety) comes in weights of eigths, quarters and ounces...now when I say abuse over a 7 year period, I used to quite easilly smoke anything from an eigth to a quarter a day, and anything up to 3 ounce a week.

That is not only a seriously LARGE amount of abuse, but also a disgustingly expensive habbit.

To revert back to the initial point and to say so in the least demeaning manner possible; of my friends I am the most intelligent, girlfriend and elders aside. Now if that kind of drug abuse causes the killing of braincells and incites paranioa...then like I said...christ...I must be a cabbage by now?

Evidentally...I am not. =P

Those so called indefinate effects are all dependant on the person.

Oh as a last note...I too was brought up in an extrodinarilly traditional familly who have also been brought into life to acknowledge that drugs are not only "BAD" but illegal.

Strange how things work out eh?

*Celebrates 1 week of not even feeling the need for a "joint"*

^__^

[Xferox 02]

you know when some one is doing drugs by the look on their face, and their expression, their skin color teeth color, and the way they act. you can identifi them right away

[BrokenImage]

Yeah i used to smoke weed all the time with my last band. Its a common occurence, drugs and music. I also used to do robotussin, you know the over the counter cough syrup? It is DxM, also called dextramathoraphin if i spelled it right or dextramorphine. Depending on however much you can drink it can get you to each of the four plateus. I only ever got to 3 which is the point in which you begin to hallucinate. We also used to mix it with grapefruit juice and the citric acid would chemically change DxM to DxO which doubled or sometimes tripled the effect of the DxM. Crazy stuff eh? Now i just drink illegally underage and smoke cigarettes. Im such a role model haha.

[Ios]

that's quite heavy...

I smoke a joint sometimes at a party or something, not much. And it indeed doesn't affect your personality or anything. I also believe A2k right away. I have a friend (and I know some other guy) who smoke's pretty much weed and those guys both get amazing grades without too much learning efforts... Pretty funny actually. Maybe some scientists should do some test about weed increasing some features of the brain or something...
(the other dude I know came from the MAVO (the average school level), reached HAVO (the level above MAVO) and finally get's the highest grades on VWO (the second highest level here in holland). truly amazing)

[bbnflpn]

Drugs are bad...mmkay.
I don't do them....mmkay.
lol
i dont watch south park often but i did see that ep and it was probably one of the funneist i saw (other than the korn halloween ep)

[Lucki]

i dont do drugs, my mates do, sometimes i would have a puff or something when i get stressed but nope

[Lust]

hmm i don do drug either.....my fren seem addict to it o_0

[Gu^n3r]

i know plently of people who are all high, ranging from m8s off the net or people from school there all around me and it makes me sick, im sorry but destroying ur body for adrenaline is just stupid, u wana do something like that go sky diving, probaly save more money that way!

[A2k]

Still going strong, and not smoking cannabis hasn't phased me one minute bit.

Now; this proves several points - FIRSTLY and FOREMOST cannabis is not addictive, anyone who says otherwise is full of absoulte BULL. =)

It's the nicotine added to it that causes people to get hooked on drugs.

Secondly Guner (yes I have no desire to write your name out properly) you quite obviously never have touched cannabis in your entire life and as such I can immidiately tell, and so will ANYONE here who has smoked pot, know that what you just said is also...absolute bollocks.

Don't make comments like that if you actually have no clue about that of which you are talking.

Smoke pot for adrenaline...LMFAOSTFUY! That's the stupidest thing I have EVER, yes EVER heard here at CB, and trust me, there have been some seriously troubled, delusional and down right idiotic people I have seen pass through these forums in my years of being here.

Please...don't talk crap when you obviously have no idea.

To anyone else who smokes pot...it's the cigs that keep you hooked...I'm "trying" to pack those in too, which is going ok, but is a whole hell of a lot more difficult than packing in the skunk.

Rant End.

[Xferox 02]

weed is actually less addictive than cig

[bleachgirl212]

omg i do drugs speed cuz i got adhd but my bf is a drugdealer i smoked sme pot it was ok

[xFrame]

I used to smoke alot of weed untill i started having panic attacks (long-term side effect) since then I haven't really done any drugs....I mean I'vbe tried almost everything in High School....ecstasy, mushrooms, acid, coke...but only did them once in awhile. Now I wouldn't do any drugs...except for maybe pain meds like lortabs.

[Sharpie_x]

I've never done drugs, and never will. I get disgusted by any time of smoke or drug. I've known of people who have and turn out pretty bad, many of them become addicted, few of them have try to get out of the addiction but haven't completely recovered. If heard of this guy who is in another school from mine, got addicted because a cousin of his got him into drugs and now he can never speak again and uses a robot like machine to talk. My advice, please don't ever try drugs.

What drug caused him to lose the ability to speak? I don't see how thats possible unless he got cancer from smoking too much weed...

Personally i dont think theres any thing wrong with recreational weed use I.e smoking once a week or when ur going to a party cuz honsetly it doesnt effect u that much mentally at least

Weed does effect you mentally. When I smoke weed I become very very shy. I probably won't say a word for an hour. It deff effects you mentally but it effects everyone differently.

[Sharpie_x]

What drug caused him to lose the ability to speak? I don't see how thats possible unless he got cancer from smoking too much weed...


Well from what I've heard he was smoking a lot (Which that's why I think he lost his voice) but he was also into drugs like heroin which gave him a mental confusion. I don't know the whole thing but this is what a friend of mine told me.

[pantiffel]

I will never use drugs and that is because someone of my family is a drug addict ... She was clean for a couple of years but when she started to use again she gave her children to their dad and left them there so she could spend the money on drugs ... I still can't believe that she left her children for drugs. So this is the reason why I will never use drugs ... I've seen what it can do to a person and the people around that person

[AmnesiaI]

after viewing this video (which is very informative) i will never do pot
the many effects of drugs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHzdsFiBbFc). i on a couple of occasions have had some hard liquor (i believe the strongest i had was 100 proof)


LOL that was hilarious.

I've done drugs before, I guess it was to experiment. Not a big deal if you don't make it one imo.

[Evanesque]

Nope, never done drugs and I'm not even curious to try.

They just give you 5 minutes of pleasure but then 5 years of pain. Other than prescribed medicines by doctors and nicotine, I don't do drugs.

[xFrame]

LoL cigs are more dangerous to your health than marijuana mushrooms and some other drugs....and drugs in most cases give you more than 5 minutes of pleasure...cigs give you little to no pleasure...the only reason you feel good after smoking a cig is because you replenish the nicotine levels that relieves the symptoms of your addicition...I'm not supporting drug use but as a former smoker, I'd rather smoke a fat dutch than another cig...the only reason cigs arn't illegal is because of impact on our economy it would have..

[BabyLoving]

Hmmm. Never done drugs or smoking before. But there was once I wanted to do smoking, and my friends reacted violently, by placing the friendship on the line. So I didn't. It's hard to do drugs in my country cause its pretty strict and all.

[Hanabira08]

I have tried weed before but I don't use regularly. I have an acquaintance who is starting to do meth which I will never do because I know how addicting it is and what it can do. Go to ebaumsworld.com and search for the many faces of meth if you're interested in it of seeing the effects. I also don't feel that pot it bad for since I have facts. A college psychology text book at a school near me says that alcohol kills more brain cells than pot. I also am not interested in doing any other drug. I have only and will only smoke weed.

[Hanabira08]

Nope, never done drugs and I'm not even curious to try.

Prescription meds are also addicting too so you're not making a guarntee that you won't become addicted.

[Donut]

I don't and won't do drugs for personal and moral reasons.

[Kyoko<3!]

I don't and won't do drugs for personal and moral reasons.

Oh cmon! Give it a try! EVERYBODY'S WHO'S SOMEBODY IS DOING IT! =D
If you want to be cool you've gotta do drugs. no doubt.

[Donut]

Ah shoot, I guess I'm not cool =(

[Phasmatis]

My life doesn't suck nearly enough to justify drug use.

[A2k]

You see, I never understood comments like that.

Drugs; cannabis specifically is less harmfull than drinking and yet people will more readilly spend £40+ on a night on the piss rather than spend £40 on some good skunk and get stoned for a couple of days if you take it easy.

Not that I promote it, but having previously smoked cannabis...A LOT, I know that if I decided I wanted to get battered out of my skull, I sure as hell wouldn't waste my money on getting drunk, and possibly not recall the events.

[Donut]

You make it sound healthy A2k...

[Phasmatis]

Oh yeah, brave doctors have been telling us for years that Cannabis is much safer than Cigarrettes/Alcohol, and the medical establishment has shunned them for it. Well, it is finally being accepted by that same medical establishment, who is acting as if this is a new discovery. *rolls eyes*

Either way, I refuse to take drugs. I don't need them, and from what I've seen, they tend to F**k-up your life even more.

Also, I believe that I have the "addict gene", since most of my family are alcoholics. I don't want to risk becoming addicted to something. I like to be in complete control of my life! (Or as much as realistically possible.)

[Guy]

I refuse to do drugs. I don't care if people think I'm not cool. My addiction is on anime, books, and education. No spare time for drugs!

[BabyLoving]

Everybody has different perceptions of drugs. Some drug addicts might think that drugs is not harmful, cause they tried it, and nothing much serious happened to them. While it is true that drugs do cause some harms and stuff, it doesn't mean that it is totally bad.

I guess, drugs is okay, as long as you don't do it too much. (:

[Donut]

Meh, I still have a sense of moral... So no drugs for me...

[Olrox]

At age 17, ive never tried drugs or smoking and have no plans to do so. Ive been drunk once, I wasn't really planning on getting drunk but a few friends came over with beer so :rolleye09

[adorkable]

I've never experimented with drugs before. I want to try smoking cannabis but after I found out that the drug remains in your body for around 30 days, I wasn't so sure anymore. But I do want to try it still - you know, see what its like.

In my old school, people were caught for smoking on the school grounds. Therefore drug testing has been proposed for everyone. I bet that sucks for the people who want to try or who do smoke and whatnot.

[zwolf]

well i don't know if i will do any drugs in any time soon but i will probably not ever touch them the one thing you should never touch is meth

[boredomlover93]

drugs is a sad topic. people know to stay away from it and stuff then they get tricked into it then hooked. sad thing. hasnt happened to me and i havent tried it. i guess you could still classify me as a lil kid compared to the majority of you guys.

[DireCry]

Never had any drugs, apart from the odd glass of WKD Blue or Schnapps.

[Donut]

I don't get why people say that they wanna try drugs just to see what it's like... I mean, 'cause it's bull, if you like drugs, you'll probably carry on with it. As well, I don't think it's too hard to imagine what it's like anyway. I've met people who were stoned... Gah they looked so stupid... :/

And this guy who was my best friend long ago, got into the whole drug thing, he started with pot, then ecstasy, and now I don't now... Some heavier shit, and I do feel bad for and his family...

[wolf_11]

Shit where i use to live drugs were so easy to get. My family would come home late from parties and we could smell pot in the air. I also now people who have done it. Some of my friends older sibling have done it drug so it usually why they don't do it. I have try it i just think it stupid plus i have seen what happens when you are on it and the damage it does.

[yahhzoo]

I used to smoke alot of weed back in high school with my friends and shit. Now I realzie it was a waste of money and pointless.

[Asuka]

I know a lot of people that smoke weed, but most of them can still function so it's like a hobby or something. Me, I've been asked to do it so many times, but it just doesn't appeal to me. I'm not going to go all into the whole 'drugs are bad, it's stupid speech.' Because like I said, most of the people I know that do weed, function fine. One of my friends is a 4.0 student in high school.

[Lisa.]

I've done alot of weed when I was 15/16, but I stopped after I finished high school, it was just experimenting but after a while it became a drag.

[Future]

I don't really like drugs... and i lose respect for people who have tried... but that's just me... never tried em... and i don't plan to

[zarakiscars86]

ya i stopped smoking pot after high school...its a waste of brains...i drink HARD...BEERS...all u nubs out there jus enjoy a few drinks..dont do drugs..i got a slinky for a spine cuz i popped way to much back in the day//

[derdian]

lol @ zaraki my buddy has a bad spine cuz of E as well but about the drugs i smoke weed occasionally and i mean ive done acid as well as mush and salvia but its not as bad as you all think im not promoting drug use or any thing but i think every 1 should try it once (weed not the others) because its just a nice feeling every now and then and as for the hallucinogens (bad spelling) dont do em if ur a sad or paranoid person especially salvia its not fun lol i know from experience with salvia and acid that a bad trip can stay with u the rest of your life

[Lust]

well,once you satart it,its hard to stop your self to taking it again and again...it can be addictive and worst it will ruin your future,you can have fun with other stuff such as music,game,etc but with drugs? i really dissagree with you

[Arei]

No plans here to do drugs... I don't want to sound like my grandpa X_X And that stuff worsens the condition of people with breathing problems or bad sinuses, so i'd kill me X_X

[Shezmu]

Hmm haven't tried weed, almost all of my friends use it but luckily they dont try to persuade me to use it. I live in Amsterdam and weed is legal here you can buy it in every street... thats probably the reason why people who smoke cigarettes almost always smoke weed as well. I'll give it a try someday just for the experience but just once. And harder drugs... never.

[Donut]

im not promoting drug use or any thing but i think every 1 should try it once (weed not the others) because its just a nice feeling every now and then and as for the hallucinogens (bad spelling) dont do em if ur a sad or paranoid person especially salvia its not fun lol i know from experience with salvia and acid that a bad trip can stay with u the rest of your life

Wow.

You're not promoting drugs but you're recommending everyone to smoke marijuana? Well that makes sense.

Please don't encourage people to smoke marijuana, thanks.

[skyoon]

space brownies were fun in high school but its not something i would really go out of my way to get my hands on now ;)

[Project #22329]

I don't get why people say that they wanna try drugs just to see what it's like... I mean, 'cause it's bull, if you like drugs, you'll probably carry on with it. As well, I don't think it's too hard to imagine what it's like anyway. I've met people who were stoned... Gah they looked so stupid... :/

And this guy who was my best friend long ago, got into the whole drug thing, he started with pot, then ecstasy, and now I don't now... Some heavier shit, and I do feel bad for and his family...

people dont know how it feels to get high on another drug unless they try....
different drug, different high, for a diffirent occasion alcohol + e + yey + oxi = good night out in a trance, techno or a psychedelic club


if people are stupid with it, drugs kill...an explorer doesn't end up in a mess
i tried a few different drugs, never got hooked on one....

[Bak3d on H1gh]

I've actually never done drugs, i want to do marijuana, just so i know and im not a total loser, but i don't really want to spends the money

Drugs are illegal for a reason.

I've actually never done drugs, i want to do marijuana, just so i know and im not a total loser, but i don't really want to spends the money

So you're a loser if you don't do drugs? That's some confidence you've got there.

[Project #22329]

I've actually never done drugs, i want to do marijuana, just so i know and im not a total loser, but i don't really want to spends the money

sorry but
stupid very stupid.....if you want to do it to be cool...dont, you will lose it when a next drug becomes IT....well this i've seen in many of the cases.....
or you will just not like it at all...

Drugs are illegal for a reason.



So you're a loser if you don't do drugs? That's some confidence you've got there.

you mean drugs became illegal....
you know they werent alsways illegal...some just grow on cow dump or in swaps and mountains...you eat and go to wonderland

alice in the wonderland is a shroom trip, i love how kids watch it
my little cousin was like, i want to go to wonderland as well, lmfao

anyway, you're right, drug can and did mess up many lives and families and for that they are illegal...

i'm not saying drugs are good...
they just can be useful :winking56

[Donut]

Yes they became illegal... But for a reason ;)

I know I know, it's really cool to fight the system and do drugs cause you don't want to be thought of as a fool. And I agree with that, to gain knowledge you need to question everything, authorities, religion etc. But, that doesn't mean that all they say is wrong.

Heh, its not like that...i don't want certain friends to know i do drugs...mostly none, i have maybe 1-3 friends that know about it...it's not for a social status, it's done for a full enjoyment of the night or some occasion. i dont question religion or authority. never followed any religion, never really thought much about authority...never got in trouble that i regret it now. i'm not a fool :winking56

[Donut]

Well, since you don't follow the rules of authority or religion, that indirectly means you question them...

[Guy]

Wow, Rikku is really anti-drug. I thought I was the only person here who is anti-drugs.

So you're a loser if you don't do drugs? That's some confidence you've got there.

Lol. There are a lot of people who think you are a loser if you DO drugs....

[Project #22329]

A loser is a person that doesn't fit in social class group, well just unsuccesful in life....
;]

[Pipp-ORK]

I've actually never done drugs, i want to do marijuana, just so i know and im not a total loser, but i don't really want to spends the money

That's the kind of attitude that generally constitutes a loser. ;D

[Shezmu]

It's ridiculous. If you're in the "I just want to try it out" frame of mind, you'll probably end up hooked on the shit, anyway.

So true, have seen that happen to alot of my friends =(
I told them not to try it and they were like ''dude, dont worry 'bout it i'll try just once for fun, i won't get addicted blablabla''
well now they smoke weed every day during lunch break and some of them even use ecstacy ( or maybe XTC dunno how to spell XD

its a waste of money and you'll probably regret it later

[Donut]

Nice to see more anti-drug people than me!

And yeah, you shouldn't bother trying that shit, just stay away from it.

[*kaname*]

I don't need drugs to be cool. I AM COOL THE WAY I AM *loool*

i'm not saying drugs are good...
they just can be useful

erm, I don't see any benefit in drugs

[zarakiscars86]

Wow.
You're not promoting drugs but you're recommending everyone to smoke marijuana? Well that makes sense.
Please don't encourage people to smoke marijuana, thanks.

i gotta agree with this...Im tired of hearing people say marijuana is not a drug...bottom line anything that alters the way you feel is a drug.....and im gonnasay dontdo any drugs...jus drink if you have to do something...although that can become a problem as well....only you know wuts good for you...make the right choices....im suspended for driving 3 months cuz i got pulled over jus HAMMERED..and i coudnt lie to the cop when i had empty bottles and a open case in the passenger side when he saw it..THAT WAS LENIENT!!!!

[Guy]

The "I just want to try it" excuse doesn't always work. Yes, not everyone gets addicted, but seriously, you think all the drug addicts out there wanted to be addicted in the first place? No. I bet 99% of them started out with the same excuse: I just want to try it.

[A2k]

Ok, fair point, and rightfully so for the majority of points being thrown into this deathpit debate.

I'd actually lay bets that 100% not just 99%, wouldn't have wanted to become "addicted" to drugs who first tried them, with that kind of mentality.

But there is a very distinct line between when someone decides that they want to try the drugs, and when you let the drugs decide for you.

Take me for example; I used to smoke cannabis daily, in large quantities. Why? Because I wanted to, I enjoyed the high, it was harmless to others in the sense that compared to alcohol, cannabis wont cause chaos and bar room brawls.

Now before we continue; notice I haven't condoned the smoking of cannabis, merely given you the facts from an ex smokers point of view.

Is cannabis bad, dirty and all the excessively evil things that people generally say it is?

No, that's just government propaganda that forces society to frown upon it simply because it is labelled as being illegal.

Cannabis has about as much chance of causing you serious harm as you would get from smoking a regular cigarette anyway.

Do people get addicited to cannabis?

For the most part no. Some people, with less strong willpowers and mindsets, may become addicted to the drugs, but if you have any kind of willpower or strengthened mentality then even when you do smoke it on a regular basis, you smoke the drugs, and therefore you have the control, and not the drugs taking control of you.

I smoked pot for a long time, and like I said, I smoked it a lot. One day I decided that I wanted to stop smoking cannabis... ... ...so I did. There's nothing more to it than that.

The people who say I tried pot and got hooked on heroin...well what the hell?? That's you're own god dam fault fool.

I tried cannabis for the first time, to experience it. Why? Because I refuse to go through life, lacking knowledge.

As Rikku said, I will undoubtedly go through life questioning, testing, trying, deciding for myself through real experience what is what, and how things truly are.

Questioning is the only way you will find true answers and it's a far more realistic perspective on life to look back and say something about something you have experienced, than to look back and say something about something you have no clue about.

When I quit smoking ganj, it was the easiest thing in the world. I simply stopped buying it, stopped smoking it, and didn't accept any when offered by friends.

It wasn't hard, it wasn't painful, it was one of the simplest things in the world, why? Because I actually have a mind of my own, I have my own willpower and my own mindset. I quit smoking pot instantly the moment I decided to quit, without any difficulties.

People might say well done to you...why? It's not like it is difficult, cannabis is only addictive if you have an addictive personality. Something like crack, heroin or other seriously harmful drugs...then yeah, I might have some sympathy for someone who says that they are having a difficult time staying off those types of drugs, because they ARE addicitive.

Personally, I'll try something once, perhaps twice if I liked it.

Aside from that, I'll use a bit of common sense and thought before randomly throwing myself into a situation or experience that would otherwise deduct from the point of having an experience in the first place.

eg. sky diving would be a most exhilirating experience, but you wouldn't go sky diving without a fully working parachute now would you?

Cannabis for me was an experience, one that I do not regret but have lived with quite contently, without it causing me any problems, short or long term.

A realistic perspective would be this; if you have any thoughts about trying pot for the first time, then at least have your eyes open, and realise that if you are not strong willed, then you may be weak enough that you will use the excuse that you have become addicted to cannabis.

Losers?

Losers are the people who sit all day and preach about this, that and the other, yet have never shared half a life experience of which they themselves preach about. (of course I could sit and write an entire essay about the different types of "loser" and how the term can be applied to different situations, scenarios, and people, but that's for another post.)

Yeah, I can sit and preach about smoking cannabis, I've been there, I've smoked it, I've smoked £60 worth of skunk in a single day before, why? Because I could, because I wanted to, because I had the money spare...take an answer, pick any one of them you like that most suits the sentence, but they are all MY answers, to MY experiences.

People who ***** and whine about how it's such a bad thing, and that drugs are evil, nasty, disgusting habbits etc. etc. blah blah blah...errrm, you know all of this how exactly?

Perhaps some might be able to come back with the whitty repetoir that my friends do drugs and I've seen what it does to them etc. etc.

WHAT?

Allow me to spell this one out just to clarify it for those who may have misinterpreted the question;

Have YOU smoked cannabis before?

"No."

Then what the hell do YOU actually know about it YOURSELF?

As I said before, don't misunderstand me, I do not condone the smoking of pot or the use of any kind of drugs at all, but my point is merely this; I choose my life, I make my decisions, and I live my life by my experiences, not something I heard from a friend's, friend, who said that his sister's, brother's mate tried it and said it was COOL.

wtf. ~_~

[sham16]

Wow a very long post!

Anyhow... To make a long story short... drugs is and never will be a benefit for health nor in social status... Yeah you would get that ever so arrogant persons saying "Wow, dude he's cooling he's taking drugs" (If anyone is saying that though) But after a while you would get addicted and get to become crazier and crazier soon you ought to be in a nut house or end up in prison... Then people would say "Wow, dude hes dumb he took drugs!" (That I think a lot of people will say"

As for the thing that they say "A little bit wont hurt you" yeah right look at the one telling you that... Dont you think he was told that story before when he was like you??? Be smart kid and dont get peer pressure on your head too much that you end up doing drugs and violence... It wont get you anywhere but to jail.. Always remember that when you try something try to look at the person giving that thing to you of you think that his life went well because of that or he is safe by doing that then by all means do it as long as it will not endager yourself... But I will tell you know "Drugs is for no use!"

[*kaname*]

Tss, I don't understand your reasons to smoke Marijuana. You just wanted to try it? Do you buy every candy you see in the supermarket just because you haven't tasted it yet? *lol*

Ah btw:

"Marijuana use reduces learning ability. Research has been piling up of late demonstrating clearly that marijuana limits the capacity to absorb and retain information. A 1995 study of college students discovered that the inability of heavy marijuana users to focus, sustain attention, and organize data persists for as long as 24 hours after their last use of the drug.

Earlier research, comparing cognitive abilities of adult marijuana users with non-using adults, found that users fall short on memory as well as math and verbal skills. Although it has yet to be proven conclusively that heavy marijuana use can cause irreversible loss of intellectual capacity, animal studies have shown marijuana-induced structural damage to portions of the brain essential to memory and learning."

That experience seems to be really funny

[SoundWave]

Eh I ain't gonna preach about something I don't know much about..

I've heard a thousand times that drugs are bad, side-effects and all that.. And come to the conclusion that I'll try it and decide for myself.. Though nothing that has anything to do with needles, dun like needles >.< ..

I dun feel that you can preach about something until you've tried it.. It could be a good experince to know what it feels like.

[A2k]

I wouldn't say a "good" exprience, but merely to have had the experience, one can say for themselves; Yeah, drugs are pointless in my opinion.

[Guy]

A2K is a gambler. I'm not a gambler, sorry. I don't gamble my house when I'm in Vegas (of course, I'm not of legal age yet, so I can't, even if I want to). You may not have been ruined by pot, but I DO know people who HAVE BEEN ruined by pot. I don't learn everything through my mistakes; I also learn it through OTHER people's mistakes.

[SoundWave]

Yea what I wanted to say.. formulated my sentence about that a little wrong. heh

I don't have such friends.. And I haven't met any ppl who have been ruined by pot or any other drugs.

Besides if I made the mistake, then my friends could learn through me.. right? you know what I'm getting at.. I hope :P

[skyoon]

I used to do space brownies and such VERY sparingly in high school (i'd say 3 times a year, only for the last 2 years or so), and do agree it is pointless entertainment. however...

That experience seems to be really funny


your quoted material is ridiculous. observe the portions i underlined. where did you get your information, an anti-drug site?


here is some stuff for wikipedia:

Cannabis was found to be neuroprotective against excitotoxicity and is therefore beneficial for the prevention of progressive degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease.


Cannabis is known to act on the hippocampus (an area of the brain associated with memory and learning), and impair short term memory and attention for the duration of its effects and in some cases for the next day. In the long term, some studies point to enhancement of particular types of memory.


Unlike tobacco, cannabis has not been shown to cause emphysema, lung cancer, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Other studies have suggested that cannabis use by expectant mothers does not appear to cause birth defects or developmental delays in their newborn children.

According to a United Kingdom government report, using cannabis is less dangerous than both tobacco and alcohol in social harms, physical harm and addiction.


A 1998 report commissioned in France by Health Secretary of State Bernard Kouchner and directed by Dr. Pierre-Bernard Roques determined that, "former results suggesting anatomic changes in the brain of chronic cannabis users, measured by tomography, were not confirmed by the accurate modern neuro-imaging techniques," (like MRI). "Moreover, morphological impairment of the hippocampus [which plays a part in memory and navigation] of rat after administration of very high doses of THC (Langfield et al., 1988) was not shown (Slikker et al., 1992)" (translated). He concluded that cannabis does not have any neurotoxicity as defined in the report, unlike alcohol and cocaine.


Although I would not use regualarly myself and I would never smoke it if I did (which can produce carcinogens), marijuana is the target of lot of urban myths and old wives tales that piss me off. So please get your sources straight before going on some pseudo crusade. :\

[Biolink]

I've smoked weed before.Wasn't all that it was cracked up to be.

[skyoon]

pretty much. its a minor mood enhancer, like alcohol or cigarettes. im very against the heavier stuff and drug culture in general but weed is pretty harmless.

[Guy]

I don't have such friends.. And I haven't met any ppl who have been ruined by pot or any other drugs.

Well, I do know people like that. There are people whose lives were ruined by pot. Just because you don't know any personally doesn't mean these people don't exist.

Besides if I made the mistake, then my friends could learn through me.. right? you know what I'm getting at.. I hope :P

Yeah, they should. Pity though, since you would be the sacrifice for them to learn a lesson... that is, if they are smart enough to.

[DespoticWalnut]

I have tried weed once, it was alright I guess, nothing I'm ever going to do again. I'm always broke anyways so I could never afford it.

[Harley Quinn]

pretty much. its a minor mood enhancer, like alcohol or cigarettes. im very against the heavier stuff and drug culture in general but weed is pretty harmless.
Weed being harmless?I can't speak for other people and their experiences with it but I was addicted to it for about 3yrs.And I can tell you that it is harmful.I used to get really paranoide, to the extent that I couldnt talk to my best friends, blackouts and heart palpatations.I still get the odd palp now, it's not a nice experience.

[Guilder]

Never have, Never will.=3

[Harley Quinn]

Good for you.I think avoidance is generally the best tactic with drugs, better to be safe rather than sorry.

[Lady Ushio]

Well, it funny to recall that...

When I was in the party with my co-workers on my first job, My co-workers smoked too much weed in this one tiny room and one of them (he was my manager at work) told me that I shouldn't take weed. Well, I didn't asked them to give me some 'coz I don't like it anyway.

Another incident is that I live blocks away from the subway station. While I was in the subway station with my classmate, a guy offered me some coccaine. I refused, but my classmate wanted to stay and flirt with this guy. I told her we should leave or else, I would leave her behind. She agreed to come with me anyway.

I don't like taking drugs :whatevah:

Sure, my life becomes worse and worse. The only thing that makes me feel better is to go at the gym to release my tensions and angers. Sometimes, I almost break the gym machines that I'm using :whatevah:

I don't see why people need to take them all the time, i mean you can have fun without them, they just ruin your body, anyhoo, that's my opinion, i haven't taken drugs before (never had the chance) but i don't really want to either

[Donut]

I've had the chance alright... I was to rip of the heads of the guys who asked me to :p

[Kuroi Getsuga Tenshou]

Have you ever experimented with drugs?
Maybe you take them regulary or maybe you want help and support giving up.

Whatever you experince, dicuss Drugs here.
I don't do drugs
matherafact I HATE DRUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But alot of my friends smoke weed! and I know some girls who just can't stop with XTC, whenever I see them I can just feel that they ain't right no mmore

[Riw]

I don't do drugs. I've never had any urge to try them out, even though I know a few people who smoke weed, if not regularly.

I know a lot about their potential side effects and withdrawal symptoms due to my studies. Cannabis, which is legal in some countries, doesn't have that many but just the thought of being addicted is enough for me personally to be against it. Still, I'm not fanatic - I believe that dangers associated to some milder drugs have been exaggerated.

On the other hand, there is also stuff that no one should have anything to do with. Heroin - that's bad. Seriously messes up your brain.

[Future]

Drugs are just to big, to many people take them... that's why the crime rate has just gone up over the years, instead of down, cause some ****ing drugged up idiot, decided to drive a car and hitting someone, or end up stabbing/shooting a innocent person while high, i mean just think of the families of these people, seriously, if you need to take drugs to enjoy your time, then there is something wrong with you

[L]

Drug free :) I'm listening to what I've heard and I'm heeding every word. My classmates heard the same words, but I guess they wanted to be nonconformists or something :\

[shaberry]

Depending on what your meaning of a drug is. With the technical term of it...a drug is any substance that alters the chemical or hormonal function of the body. So yes, I've taken drugs. Cough medicine, Midol, alcohol (PATRON FTW!!!), cigarettes (Lights please), and I have done weed once...but since then...I have found that I'm allergic to it. And either way...I'm not a weed person anyway...I'll just stick to my Patron thank you very much.

[Mikado]

I don't. It just has to much negative side effects.

[Kalashnikov]

I've smoked weed, probably because of the people i hang with. I don't do it anymore though. It actually smells and tastes nicer than normal cigs, also its not addictive...well i dont think it's addictive. It really helped relieve so much stress that i used to have.
Still though, i'm not saying do it. I actually advise you not to, drugs can ruin your life its better to stay away from them. It actually all depends on your willpower.

[Haskabab]

I smoke Weed every now and then, and i love it. But not on a regular basis and only with friends.. Boring to smoke weed on your own.

Don't believe in other drugs, pure poison.

[shaberry]

Who smokes hooka here? I do! *raises hand*

[Reenee_2340]

I used 2 smoke alot of weed back then in my senior year, in high school back in 2005. I havent touched it in like 7 or 8 months n Im still drug free!!! *smiles proudly* yea.......its jus not my thing no more.........it used 2 b fun, but now......forget it, its like wack n annoyin, ppl r overratin it too much, i dont need drugs 2 b happy lol :) :) :) :)

[..::Mr 999::..]

i don`t like it but people around me do it

[Lucki]

most of my mates smoke weed, i may have once. a few have done ecstasy. There are always heroin needles around school so someone does that, but i don't bother to take notice.
i wouldn't do them, not really my thing. but i don't pass judgment on my friends or tell them what they should or shouldn't do. none of my business and i don't really care.

[Youko Makuyo]

No, ive been offered but refused everytime. I do drink sometimes though.

[Twinky]

i take pain killer because i had a surgery on my knee theres a metal plate in there and i pop 2 pills every 3 hours to kill the pain, it only happens during season change but yea muhahaah im an drug addict

[XeroRecoil]

I did drugs once I don't think I could do it again.

[momo-taichou]

nope im innocent *cough* *cough*
no actually i never did drugs and i never will. I'm a smart person and i dont want to kill off all my brain cells thankyou very much

[Tongue]

Smoked a decent amount of pot over the years but i stopped. I found it was really fun but in the end it was just pointless so i have stopped doing drugs in all ... drink ocasionally.

Shrooms twice. First time was like my best trip ever like was soooooo fun did a bunch of stuff can't remember it was awhile ago :/ second time bad tripped and haven't touched em since >< bad tripping was the worst feeling I have ever felt.

edit: a2k keeps hitting the nail on the head

[phantommaggot]

drugs = completely stupid
i have some pretty good dumb stoner experience.. after quitting and having not done it for like... 4 years... i can say noone with any brains should get high..
anything harder than pot is just incredibly stupid. but then again ignorance is bliss.. stupid is a stupid does and all that..

even excessive drinking is stupid.. if you cant have a good time without drinking... find new friends, and new hobbies..

for instance, i love driving, building things, and gaming. im pretty happy doing all that without drinking, or getting messed up.

it sucks i have so many friends that cant go a day without drinking or druggin.

lost my love to the same situation, drinking and hanging out, and smokin pot with friends more important than growing up.
now shes not going back to school, even tho she made the deans list last semester... she has no car, no job, no lisecense... bleh..

drugs are bad mmm kaayy

[4thseal]

meh, I like hunter s.'s approach to drugs. There not for everyone, but that doesn't mean there not for me =)

[opusx]

yah ive done them.
nothing illigal really just weed. on the rare occasion. to relive pain when i dont have any pain killers.
i do drink on occasion, and i have mixed my other drugs with alcohol too.
but i have been on my share of prescription drugs, alot of them opiates, benzos, that kind of thing.

drugs are bad people, weed is not as bad as people make it out to be, but it is still bad.

I don't get prescribed any benzos anymore but I still go to pain management and get opiates. Sometimes I think legal script drugs are just as bad if not worse than illegal ones. You get it from a doctor so you don't think much of it anymore, then you move to another state and find out that no doctor is willing to prescribe you as much as you currently get and then you find out how screwed you are. I am lucky that I have 4 MD's in my immediate family, but I see alot of people get messed up from opiates, even though they get them totally legally.

I just had a physical, the first one in years, and I was so scared to get the results after years or way overboard drinking and taking pills and crap. I am lucky that I am totally healthy, but I really think if I hadn't all but quit drinking 2 years ago I wouldn't have been so lucky. Drnking really can be worse than illegal stuff.

Never did drugs never will.Don't want my breath smelling like shit.It bites you in the ass in the end anyway.

[II Xion II]

Never did drugs (though I wanted to at one point) and never will.

That includes drinking.

The only real excuse for doing drugs is that it "feels good" or makes one forget all their problems.

So basically, doing drugs is subconscious in origin and circumvents conscious will. Depending on the drug, people can do things they would never do not under the influence and as such, drugs are used to perpetuate ignorance and irresponsibility. I don't deny the euphoric effect of drugs, but anything that can make a person sell the clothes off his back for a single hit, is not exactly a good thing.

And then there are the numerous health/well-being issues associated with drug use, legal/criminal trouble one can get into, and of course addiction/craving for the same experiences over and over again.

I have never smoked a single cigarette (which is probably the worst drug in the world in terms of usage) and I do not care for alcohol at all.

Although gambling is very fun, especially when you set limits and know how to play Blackjack well. ;)

You can smell your own breath accurately? I guess you're one of the few who can. :redbiggri

I don't think drugs like heroin would make your breath smell so bad (mainly because it's often injected), but I would think meth and longtime cigarette smoking would.

Actually I know people who have smoked for years on end and some of their mouths look like shit. I guess it depends on the person and the drug and the amount and such. Whatever it is, the vast majority of drugs have no health benefit whatsoever and they are almost all detrimental in some way or another.

[BeMused]

Drugs is a taboo subject. Most people would shy away from it. Most think that "Drugs = Bad". But I am partial to it. Don't get me wrong. I am speaking this from treatment point of view. Not of their illicit usage. And I would like to elaborate more on the relation of drugs on cancer patients on chronic pain... but I am afraid it would be too dry a subject.

Anyway, for relatively healthy people, there is no reason for you to use drugs. It is not worth the temporal euphoria. There is a huge difference in using drugs in treatment and using it for recreational purposes. Instead of the benefits it gives, you get all sorts of... crap.

To keep things short and sweet, well, I do sometimes need Panadol to relieve menstrual cramps. :D

Have you ever experimented with drugs?
Maybe you take them regulary or maybe you want help and support giving up.

I have a strange habit of befriending people, only for me to find out anywhere from a month to five years later that they've been doing drugs.

I recently made friends with a 13 year-old who has all this messed up stuff happening to her. She cuts herself, recently lost her best friend to cancer, drinks, and gets high. I really want to help her, but I know her online and live thousands of miles from her. I got her to cut out the cutting, but I'm not sure about how to go about asking her to put away the pot. It hurts me to see someone so young needlessly throwing her life away just because her parents see her as worthless. I'm in need of some advice. In the month we've known each other, I feel that she's a little sister in need of rescue, so having the role of big sister, I can't stand by and let her destroy herself.

[Neko Bam]

I refuse to do drugs. I don't care if people think I'm not cool. My addiction is on anime, books, and education. No spare time for drugs!
:headbang Listen to this guy, I'm only high on life!
You don't need drugs :)

theres not much you can do from online and so far away, besides talk to her, be supportive and voice your concerns. Encourage her to go see a professional or even talk to someone at school. That is young to do that crap and could lead to much harder things by the time she is 18. it's nice of you to want to help her and she is lucky to know you.

I have not read through this site, I just found it on google, so I apologize if it isn't that helpful but it looks like it may have some good advice.

My question to those of you who posted as being completely anti-drug is this.


What are your opinions on pharmaceuticals?

[Olrox]

Nope, never tried drugs. Why ? I have no desire to. Same goes for drinking and smoking.

I have no problem with them. Hypocritical? Maybe.

[Youko Makuyo]

Ive tried a cigarette and a cooler before but no illegal ones, so no I guess. Wouldn't want to either, they send your life in a downward spiral.

[Reco]

Both recreational drugs and pharmaceuticals can have serious side effects. Someone could also get addicted to both types. Marijuana can help alleviate pain, but too much can damage your brain cells. At the same time, Ibporfin can also alleviate pain but it can damage your cardiovascular system. They have similar affects to the body, but why does one have to be evil and the other good? I have taken Ibporfin, so it's like I took something similar to marijuana.
I don't think that all drugs are similar like this, but we shoulden't lump things into groups that they don't belong in.

[Alex26]

lol, i didnt get addicted to ibuprofen but i got addicted to Afrin... yes AFRIN. I used it so much that the thing had no effect on my body anymore. ah well <_<

Apart from the "good" ones i've never used drugs :P

[aloy]

..Used to smoked weeds long time ago..thats all.

[Vivi_Hino]

I was taken away from my mom because she did drugs and now i'm in foster care. >.< I don't plan on making the same mistakes she had, because i don't want anyone to go through what i've had to go through.

[Aleister]

Marijuana (regularly), Psilosybin Mushrooms (occaisonally), Peyote (rarely, but would do it more often if I had a good source), and I did coccaine one time and will never do that again. I grew up in the midwest USA so meth was really popular but to me meth and other syntetic drugs just don't seem right to me. I prefer more mellow natural drugs. I also don't go in for the genetically modified weed(even though I'm studing to become a maize/corn geneticist kinda ironic I guess?).

[Christian Lub]

cigs i do sumtimes along with weed/pot .... join hte stoners fc ppl ... smirnoff isnt a drug but ill put it anywayz

[Neko Xab]

I only drink on occasion, usually with my parents. I've only drank twice, once at a quinceanera and then at my cousin's wedding party. I think that's the only thing I've done that is considered a drug, as I was once told that alcohol is a drug.

[kaede822]

about pharmaceuticals? hmm.. the reason why they place indications and dosages on the labels on some certain drugs because if taken at higher doses they have adverse effects. for example, a general category of drug like CNS stimulants can stimulate the brain of course, but if taken at higher doses they have other effects on the body. they cause u to palpitate, ur pupils dilated and u cant sleep which has the same effect of methampethamine hcl.

anyway, i've had my share of those, but it was out of curiosity for better understanding and so that i could understand why some of my friends take it. but i was never addicted to any of it....

[Chikiru]

wow these stories are real sad wow

EXAGGERATED CLAIMS ABOUT MARIJUANA

Despite evidence to the contrary, many individuals and organizations maintain that marijuana is an extremely dangerous drug. For example, the National Federation of Parents for Drug Free Youth attempts to reach its societal and legislative goals by making the following claims:

1. Marijuana is a harmful substance because it has 421 chemicals.

2. Marijuana is stronger than it was 10 years ago, and this new, potent marijuana presents dangers unrecognized years ago.

3. Marijuana is far worse for the lungs than tobacco.

4. Marijuana causes damage to the reproductive system.

5. The psychoactive chemicals in marijuana are fat soluble and stay in the human body for a month, increasing the danger of exposure.

6. Marijuana causes brain damage and a behavioral disorder known as amotivational syndrome.

7. Any use of marijuana is abuse, and marijuana has no medical value whatsoever.


The National Federation of Parents supports prohibition of marijuana because it believes that marijuana is so dangerous that no one can use it safely. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, which supports the NFP, many parents welcomed discovery of reports suggesting marijuana's harmfulness because the claims reinforced their own instincts about marijuana.

In fact, the reports used to justify the above claims have been found to be inconclusive by other researchers. Hence, warnings intended to dramatize the supposed ill-effects of marijuana are often couched with phrases like "marijuana can...". "Marijuana may...", or "If the experts are right...".


THE TRUTH ABOUT MARIJUANA

The Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences conducted a 15-month study of the health-related effects of marijuana in 1982. They appointed a 22-member committee to analyze existing scientific evidence bearing on the possible hazards to the health and safety of users of marijuana. The report concludes: "the scientific evidence published to date indicates that marijuana has a broad range of psychological and biological effects, some of which, at least under certain circumstances, are harmful to human health". In a companion report providing policy recommendations to the Academy's National Research Council, regulation of the marijuana market is advocated as the most effective method of controlling marijuana. The National Academy of Science's report rebuts many of the exaggerated claims made about marijuana.

1. Of the 421 chemicals in marijuana, only 61 are unique to marijuana. The chemicals are known as cannabinoids. One of them, delta-9 THC, produces the psychoactive effect and is the focus of most research. The other 360 chemicals in the marijuana plant are found throughout other natural substances.

2. The higher potency marijuana grown in the United States represents about half of all the marijuana consumed here. Because of it's higher potency many smokers use far less of it than less potent marijuana.

3. Differences in dosage and frequency of consumption render comparisons between marijuana and tobacco consumption invalid, despite similarity in the composition of their smoke. Marijuana smoke irritates the lungs. Heavy exposure of the lungs to irritation such as smoke increases the likelihood of lung cancer and other lung problems. Marijuana speeds the heartbeat and is unhealthy for people with high blood pressure or other cardiovascular ailments.

4. Marijuana does reduce the sperm count and obstruct sperm mobility in males within the normal range. These side-effects do not seem to affect human fertility, and are completely reversible thirty days after cessation of use. Marijuana, like other drugs, crosses the placenta. While the effects of this are unknown and there is no evidence that marijuana causes chromosome damage, we advise women to avoid the use of marijuana, tobacco, alcohol, or other drugs not prescribed by their physician during pregnancy and nursing.

5. The intoxicating chemical, THC, is broken down by the human metabolism after two or three hours in the body. The by-products of this chemical breakdown are referred to as metabolites. These metabolites are fat soluble, and take 21-30 days to leave the human body via the urine. These metabolites exert no psychoactive effect on the human body.

6. After reviewing all of the evidence, the Academy concluded: "There is not yet any conclusive evidence as to whether prolonged use of marijuana causes permanent changes in the nervous system or sustained impairment of brain function and behavior in human beings". "Interpretation of the evidence linking marijuana to 'amotivational syndrome' is difficult. Such symptoms have been known to occur in the absence of marijuana. Even if there is an association between this syndrome and the use of marijuana, that does not prove that marijuana causes the syndrome. Many troubled individuals seek an 'escape' into use of drugs: thus frequent use of marijuana may become one more in a series of conterproductive behaviors for these unhappy people".

7. "Cannabis and it's derivatives have shown promise in the treatment of a variety of disorders. The evidence is most impressive in glaucoma, where their mechanism of action appears to be different from standard drugs: in asthma.... and in the nausea and vomiting of cancer chemotherapy... Similar trials have suggested cannabis might also be used in seizures, spasticity, and other nervous system disorders".

[RiannaSan]

I used to take Vicodin and Vodka together. It wasn't good times.... I've smoke weed before a few times, but I don't really like it. I don't do drugs anymore though and haven't in a very long time. If alcohol is included, I like it, but I don't really get drunk anymore and the last time I drank anything was like 6 months ago or something.

Any chemical that these stupid people put inside themselves to try and make themselves that tiny bit happier in there pathetic lives, is a drug, even those giving to you buy a doctor are drugs, but they are okay drugs because they are nessasary to get yourself better, but like "weed" and whatnot is just lame and you should feel good about yourself for taking it, the body produces it's own chemicals to make you happy, so why would you use something else? answer; stupidity

kthx, end transmission

[Pyramus]

My dad apparently experimented with drugs in uni. I have never taken them though.

[Barbaroi]

Hmm, drugs. Done quite a bit of them (not saying this in a proud way). A list of what I've done would be:
LSD
Weed
Pills (quite a few different kinds)
Cocaine
Heroine (snort not shoot)

Lets see here. LSD was a horrible horrible experiance both times I did it. After the 2nd time, I never went back to it becuase of almost having a bad trip. Pills I don't really enjoy anymore either since I've grown up quite a bit. One of the last times I took pills was a Zanny bar and drank a 6pack. All I remember is finishing my beer and waking up on the floor the next day with everyone gone, being told I was stratling the toilet all night chunking. Cocaine only did once or twice, didn't like it, dont like not being able to sleep when I want to (same goes for LSD with the exception of 15 minute power naps that make you feel like you slept for 4 hours). Heroine, did it once, made me super sick, never touched it again. As for weed, I've smoked that for a long time. Don't know why I enjoyed it as much as I did but I spent a lot of money on it and have nothing to show for it. It's also got me in trouble a couple of times (expelled from school, rehab, police) so I guess I have something to show for it, just not in a positive aspect. I haven't smoked in probably 3+ months and I don't really feel any different with or without it. Except for the fact that I am managing to save more money, which is definatly better then spending it on something I wont have several hours later.

As for alcohol. I was borderline alcohol in highschool. Binge drinking just about everynight I could, every chance I had. I've seen a lot of friends do some stupid shit while drunk (seen one turn his arm *wrist to about halfway up his elbow* into a Z shape from trying to jumpe a gate). Not a big fan of alcohol as I always tend to get a hangover. Before I was 21, I couldn't wait just so I could buy alcohol and drink when ever I wanted to. Ever since about the age of 20, I lost almost all interest in drinking, and now that I'm 22, I haven't been drunk (given I've had a few drinks here and there but nothing that impares my judgment) since about the age of 19-20.

My advice, stay away from drugs unless you really need them (prescription from a Dr.)Drugs usually cause more problems then they solve, wether it be in one form or another.

[Tai Dai]

I'll never take drugs, there disgusting and for losers! It would ruin my life and my future in Basketball.

[Dexd]

Has anybody every offered you drugs, or are you secretly on some? Well then you can tell your story right here. It's kind of hard to stay away from drugs at my school, because everyone you run into, usually is high, even some of the teachers are high, one time all the kids in my class, started having weed confessions, and they walked up to the teacher and confessed, and he just sat there drinking his coffee, ignoring everything, then a fight broke out, and he didn't care then either, well everyone from grade 11-12 are usually high, including the teachers, and everyone below, is normal, including the teachers, it's weird. But has anybody ever offer you drugs like Extasy, Marijuana, LSD, Shrooms, Hash, Meth,Heroine, anything like that?

[Rorschach]

Be sure to use the search function in the future :toocool:

No, never been offered those kind of drugs. The only time I was offered drugs was after work and someone offered me some cigarettes, but I declined.

[Dexd]

oh yeah, sorry, but yeah where do you work, like in the uptowns, cause i get offered things all the time. And i don't know how to say no, so i just usually say " Poof" then run away.

[Barbaroi]

Say no the best way possible. "no" Doesn't matter how you say it really, so long as you make it clear you don't want what they are offering. I used to be the same way when I was younger. You just got to learn to stand up for yourself/morals/beliefs and say no. I can turn down just about anything now (and if you read my post several posts up, I've done just about every drug other then crack, pcp and shrooms) because I'm a bit more strong willed. If you don't want to do them, just say no, and if they have a problem with it, tell them to **** off.

[Dexd]

Yeah dude, but what if i get jumped, a lot of kids really don't like me, for weird reasons, and they tend to do that, i can fight some of them off, but the blacks druggys, are the ones who are tough to fend off, my own best friend almost beat me up over drugs, and were not so close anymore, and my new best friend, isn't really as strong as the old one, who is one of the guys who wants me to smoke with him, i want to say no, but i don't want to look like , i wore meat to a dog show.

[Barbaroi]

If your friends don't respect your wishes and try to force you to smoke against your will, which tbh, in most cases isn't the case because then that would be less for them to smoke in the long run (trust me.. I used to be a skimp bastard :D) then you should get new friends. I know thats easier said than done, but if you can, make new friends elsewhere and stay away from the areas that people are trying to offer you drugs. Everyones situation is different though and my advice might not be the best suited for your current situation.

[Dexd]

Alright then, thanx for the help, i'll try to stay away from him, but you know how people are dude, they tend to be on the more " Do this or Die" kind of method, but i'll try to follow your pattern, and i'll tell you if it works or not, and if he does want to fight me, then i'll just end this, by bringing in my other friends, cause that always works too. :)

[Barbaroi]

Well, from most of my experiance, people usually won't force anything on you (although I never lived in a real bad neighborhood), simply because if you start smoking their stash, thats less for them and more they have to spend in the long run. I used to smoke weed literally everyday 3-4 times a day from about my 8-9th grade up untill several months ago and I personally never forced it on anyone. I have offered it to people before, but usually just not to be rude (Lol sounds wierd I know.. but it would be like eating in front of someone who hasn't eaten without offering them a bite) but usually, I would try to avoid most of my friends who wanted to smoke, because it would be money out of my pocket. You could always play that card to. Tell them, well, if I smoke your s**t, thats money out of your pocket. But like I said, every situation is different.

Good luck.

[Dexd]

I used to sell crystal meth, but i didn't smoke it, because it was against my religion, but that was a long time ago ,in 6th gradem when i needed the money to buy a new t.v., whihc was pretty stupid of me, btw man thanx for the tips, and for the good luck, i'll try my hardest to prevail, but thanx again, i appreciate it, you just saved another mans ass, and not in a gay way.

[The sunlight]

@dexd : wow, you sold that crap ? selling it isn't against your religion then ? :p
Well i rarely drink alcohol
I blaze up some puff about once in a week
and i smoke about 20 cigs a day, wich is far too much
But in the end i think alcolhol is the most dangerous of all.

[Barbaroi]

But in the end i think alcolhol is the most dangerous of all.

Na, Crack is definitely > as far as danger than alcohol.. same for heroin and cocaine. Much easier to get addicted to than alcohol. Although, alcohol is legal, therefore much more people abuse it and there's probably more deaths each year due to alcohol than heroin or crack simply because of that fact. But, can't outlaw it.... look at what happend last time they tried O_O make bad people rich.

I don't drink anymore though personally. I pretty much went from burnout to straight edge in the period of a few months LoL.

[Dexd]

Well selling it isn't against it, but if you get someone addicted it is, and thats why i stopped, i got like 20 different people addicted, it turned out for the worse overall, and people started to ask me for more, one guy even gave me his swade jacket, which i still wear, lol, btw it's a really dirty buisness.

[Joan]

I've never used drugs and I never will. I've seen so many people go under because of it. It destroys so much..

[Dexd]

And it also restores so much, it was the base of my foundation, without it, i wouldn't have the money to buy proper funding, and luch things, my mom doesn't give me money anymore, she's too depressed ever since my father died, not the greatest thing of done, i'm not proud of selling stuff. But it was my only way, and now i'm above the influence, it's just that people still bicker me, telling me to get back into it, it's kind of complicated.

[Manchester Black]

Wow. You plan on living past 40?

When I was in high school I smoked pot a few times but never really got into it. It had little effect on me. I also drank at parties and stuff. But now I don't do anything. Anyone who does serious drugs though is just on a doomed path. Their life will inevitably be hell.

[Tsunayoshi]

I have never took any drugs because Drugs cost money and they arn't worth it

[sag47]

um.. in middle school a friend of mine was a dealer and always had pounds of it rolling through so he always offered and I accepted. I used to smoke weed and take acid. But I don't do any of tht anymore and I've never paid for it (friend+dealer=offer) b/c I'm not one to get addicted. So when I didn't have it I didn't care to do it, though there was never a time when I didn't have it (when I did drugs).

No, i'll probably never take drugs... they're for losers, i hate drugs... (except for alcohol and smokes... people can have them all they want)

I don't really see cigs or alchy any different from drugs. Sure their effects are different and the addictions and health conditions that come with them. But as far as I'm concerned, they're all ways to affect the body through a chemical means. So I don't see how smokes and alcohol is okay by that reasoning. Personally I feel that the health damaging effects of weed are less than of cigarettes. Not saying its good for you.

Not counting alcohol (which I've rarely ever done) I've only ever done Hydrocodone (active ingredient in Vicodin)
Twas awesome. I've only ever done it like 3 times though. The last time was actually Thursday, and I accidentally took too much. I hadn't done it in over a year and I had no idea how much I had taken the last two times (due to not being able to remember things that took place a year ago that well) but I took too much and wound up puking. It was awesome for about an hour though.

That sounds quite dangerous. :o

I mean pot would be one thing, but prescription drug type things can't be good.

[shiny808]

Ey, drugs not good.

I mean I drink occasionally, at parties, but I dont smoke anything. Even though its kind of hard since my dad smokes, and my mom used to. Ive been around people who blaze a lot, and try offer me, but i just never take it. I guess my friends are cool, cause if i say no, they quit asking.

But if I was Dexd's situation, as in he was a dealer, I honestly think I would've taken the chance at it. I mean, I wouldnt take anything, but if could sell, I would. Make lots of money. Of course there are consequences.

Oh and btw, Dexd, you're a rugged guy :]

[ZILLA]
