drugs

[Superted]

what are your guys' views about doing drugs? what have you done, why do you do it, if you have done any ones most havent done, how does it feel, etc..

Depends on the drug, how it was made, what its effects are. Natural and mild drugs like weed, I don't care about, other drugs such as coke and brickdust should always remain illegal.

I've tried weed and tobacco, wern't keen on either, now the smell of tobacco makes me sick. I used to drink alcohol, but now it's just a thing I do at celebrations. In the past I've done mushrooms, great stuff, the first time I did them I was so blissfull. One time I was stood in the bathroom for 5 minutes, pissing on my sock and laughing like a maniac, my parents were in bed in the next room at this time, I don't know what they thought. The taste is bloody disgusting though, if you insist on doing them I recommend you get some gel caps.

Not arsed about others doing it but I don't like seeing my family destroying themselves.

I guess this is the latest fad. Start a thread with as generic a title as possible and watch everyone give their two cents on it, even though most people's two cents just mirror the two cents of others.

So here's mine. If you're dumb enough to let a chemical substance control your life you deserve to die. Period.

Hey hey my ears are burning. Damn you :wub:

[Fit of Rage]

Drugs are really bad and can ruin your life, don't ever do drugs, you will end up in hell.
I would never even think about doing drugs, ever. Just say NO!

Hi sexy, why don't you call anymore?

I like weed, but since most of the professional world screens it on a drug test, I don't really get a chance to smoke that often.

Sucks, because drinking is clearly a more destructive force in society.

[suxxor]

I don't. not sure why.. something about the thought of possibly not remembering the previous night just kind of bugs me. my family has a history of addiction, too, on both sides... and I don't wanna tempt it. at least, not right now. hell, I'm already addicted to caffeine. anyways, I'm not really against drugs, since hey, it's your body and life, and you can do whatever you want with it. I kind of wish marijuana was legal, too, since it seems to actually be less deadly than tobacco (I don't have any sources for that though).

except crack. crack is bad.

Ive had many psychedelic, entheogenic and enactogenic experiences. either chemically induced or completely natural, ive experienced countless perceptions/worlds. they all have unique viewpoints and tastes, like being different people. In the end its overall well-being (total pleasure VS pain) that counts. I envision a future where drugs are merely occasional but unneeded tools on top of a genetically preprogrammed mental super-health and well-being

however, i sometimes get the feeling when i am drunk or high that it is an artificial sense of wellbeing and this is not how i should really feel or act, and i find that a bit disturbing.

both drunk and weed are very side effect ridden, dirty highs, so thats no surprise.

Theres no difference between something being natural or synthetic, a chemical is a chemical. Dimethyltryptamine, the most powerful psychedelic there is, is naturally found in the human pineal body and spinal fluid and in dozens of plants. it produces full blown out of body experiences, complete departure from original surroundings and often contact with 'beings'. Cocaine is a natural dopamine reuptake alkaloid found in the leaves of the coca plant. A child could buy it or herion over the counter pre WWI. the illegalization of drugs leads to crime, violence, and much more suffering than if legal.

This is the first statement by Tone that I actually agree with. There's no difference between a synthetic drug or a natural drug. For example, the most deadly poisons are all natural in nature, etc.

I drink quite a lot of alcohol, probably 2 - 3 pints most nights (Normally go to the hall's bar to chill and play pool in the evening). Mainly cause I like the taste of beer + having a couple of pints tends to make me sleep easier. On a friday/saturday and often wednesday, I'll drink til I'm pretty wasted, but that'll be in a club as a "night out". I smoke pot when I can, which in reality is not very often at all. I could probably count the total amounts I've ever smoked it on two hands. I've only been truly high twice, one of which I ended up whiteying out as I was drunk too.

Like others have said, I agree that drugs aren't that bad if you can control yourself, I could easily go a couple of weeks without alcohol. It's the super-addictive drugs like heroin which are the problem, as you think you're controlling yourself, when in reality you're not.

Generally, I'm all for having alcohol or pot as well as some of the lesser known soft drugs. I would try shrooms if I had the chance, but I doubt I'd ever go for anything harder.

[Ephemeral]

When I was younger, LSD, Coke, Quaaludes, Percadon, Valium and weed. Now for the last 30 years just a daily weed smoker.

Emotional Health
Since my normal intensity level is about a 98 out of 100, I attribute pot for keeping me alove this long. Without it, I would have already died waiting for a traffic light to turn green.

Physical Health
Haven't been to a doctor since 1978. (Although I am aware that smoking anything isn't good for my lungs and munchies are a constant issue to keep my weight around 225 (Im 6'1").

Motivation
Self-taught coding in the late 80's so I could get a decent job. Have parlayed that job into being owner of a small technology company by working my way 'up the ladder'.

Social
Married to my childhood sweet heart who I have known since 1976. No kids (don't want any).

All in all I think of myself as being stable, well adjusted, contributing member of society even though I am really just a late 60's pot head.
