How did you first 'discover' illegal drugs?

Pretty much the same as SHM......16 at college, Tea break, smoked joint, whitied in class.

Still to this day, the tobacco in joints makes me whitey. I can smoke a bong or a pure grass joint without fear of a whitey.

He used to heat it up in the microwave and chop it with a massive kitchen knife!

Done that many a time. Heating it in the microwave, or in a plastic bag in the kettle. Even done it using the heater in a car before lol.
 
Weed at school when I was 12 or 13, coke/morphine/oxys (if getting those illegally counts) at 16. Only started using those last 2 cuz I had them both alternatively RX'd for a while after an accident...and I didn't want to stop the script when the doctor did :)
 
Bolox to anyone that says Cannabis is not a gate way drug , absolute Bollox

Once you have tried it & found out it's no big thing it makes you think that the same is true for other Drugs that "Adults" have told you are bad .

Aye I think if it was like alcohol view wouldn't be so much a gateway drug. But once i tried it i wanted to try everything

Was 14, had been told grass always knew of it and very good mate of mine got me my first bag. Since then wanted to try everything I could as I felt at that time I'd been lied to about drugs and over the year started doing ket/pharms/acid and then pills after as mephedrone was easier to get uncut at that age. Actually went off alcohol for a few years, well I think one when I got into the weed big time (about 3 months after starting), since then only like it as a boost not boozing entirely on it's own or being completely blocked. Think I was quite lucky the range of things I got to try at my age, but realized now that I'm much more of a fan of classics aka weed/speed/acid/mdma/ketamine/2c-b/shrooms and that's about it.

Tried salvia second, that was much more of an experience complete ego death or whatever the fuck it was.
 
While reading how 'ripper' (was it?) ODed... the chatlog on shroomery which was linked to on a non drug forum... So reading about someone dying from drugs made me want to try weed and then I sought it out, then shrooms then E (or maybe the other way around?) and so on... Pretty weird maybe.
 
was a few weeks after I turned 23 a mate got some acid and we did it at a mates 21st birthday party, a few months after that we got some white dove ecstasy tablets and the rest as they say is history.

now that I think of it, it's almost 20 years ago to the day that I did the acid.
 
Weed before a school disco at about 14/15. Didn't try anything else until my first year of uni when I was 21 or so, and we could legally buy mushrooms from the headshop. Then in my second year I tried speed, mdma, coke and ketamine in that order within quite a short space of time, getting heavily into pills for the remainder of my time at uni.
 
Christ, you bunch of teenage druggies. :p

Wasn't in a hurry myself.. late 20s for illegal stuff, partly sparked by a trip to Amsterdam. (Though I suppose about 14 if you count weirdy psychoactive plants and stuff.)
 
My introduction to illegal drugs happened when I was about 16 years old.
I was out on the piss in Monchengladbach on the 'street of a thousand pubs' with 3 of my German friends.
We were pretty drunk when another mate turned up and asked if we wanted to go outside for a smoke.
I was up for it straight away and excited at the thought of doing drugs and wondering what the effects on me would be.
We went over to a quiet carpark and my friend rolled a joint which we shared between us.
Once it was finished we went back into the pub & I was sat there analysing my mind & how I was feeling, not knowing what to expect.
I can't recall feeling any buzz at the time so was a bit disappointed with it but after a few more smokes over the next few weekends I grew to notice the buzz and enjoy it.
Same story as most people I guess I then moved onto other drugs as my interest in drugs had been piqued.
 
First tried hash when I was 14 me and a few mates chipped in for a 1/4, was a bit of a stoner for a couple of years then tried pills at 16 and loved them. Agree that cannabis could be a gateway drug, the first night I tried pills I had gone to buy a 1/2 oz of hash and the lad never had any so offered me a couple of pills instead.

Tried speed mushies acid etc a few times but not regularly, only really do ket and coke now and pills every now and then.
 
I can even remember the date. It was the 1st of May, 1990. I was at university, wandering around the student village, bored; when I saw a group of my friends sitting in a huddle behind the launderette with a suspicious, large cigarette which they were passing around.

That first experimental toke did very little for me beside (1) hurt my throat and (2) convince me that I had to try it again. And on about the third or fourth time, I actually got properly high. I ended up buying a stash of my own (it was all hash in those days), plus Rizla papers and tobacco; and then I set to practising rolling joints, tearing them open and re-rolling. And it took me a long time to learn to roll properly; but eventually, I went from being the person most likely to be asked to let someone else skin up, to being the person most likely to be asked to skin up.

A couple of years later, I was offered acid. By this time, as the only one of my group of mates who ever had any money, I was also dealing small quantities of hash. Then I tried speed, cocaine (on the overnight train from Nantes to Amsterdam, and it probably was full of speed if the truth be told) and eventually ecstasy. At this stage I was still averse to the idea of trying heroin. I didn't realise, due in no small part to the media propaganda machine, that you didn't have to inject it. Not that I cared; by this time I already had a job, a place of my own and a flatmate who was even more into getting wasted than I was. There was also a blinding little venue where a few sound systems played in turn. The pills, speed and acid flowed freely there; and upstairs, lighters flickered behind cupped hands at the edges of tables as hash was roasted and crumbled into doobies.

That couldn't last, of course. I fell out with my flatmate in a disagreement over money; the club closed, re-opened as a Bosnian and Herzegovinan community centre, and then was demolished to make way for the new ring road; and I switched jobs. Still I carried on smoking the hash.

And then came my first chance encounter with The Big H.

I had attended a party at a friend's house with some others, and we all ended up crashed out in various spots around the house. I woke up for a piss and there was this strange smell; an odd mixture of rancid meat and something hospitally. And it was coming from some stuff that a friend of my friend was heating on tinfoil and inhaling the fumes through a tube. She offered me a toke out of politeness, and was not until much later that I found out what it actually was. By which time it was too late to freak out; and anyway, I had not turned into the media stereotype of a smackhead.

Later, I would try proper cocaine (and this stuff was proper, for my friend was something of a cocaine snob) and crack (which I simply Do Not Get, but each to their own) and valium. I've probably missed out a whole bunch of stuff, actually, but that's about the general sort of gist of my drug career.
 
^ nice post
For me it was when I was 15-16, my best friend (back then) brought me hash. He used to come to my place on weekends (my parents were often away) with cheap wine/booze and get wasted. For a couple of years I was smoking (weed & regular cigs), heavily drinking and using inhalants (ah, good old dry cleaning stuff!). I got scared one night I did probably oversniffed the sock (lol) I was using and immediately stopped (thanks god) using inhalants.
I got a decent amount of insurance money when I turned 18, so switched to single malts and fancy shit and stopped getting drunk almost every night in my room. Everything else came veeery slowly. I was very curious until 22-23 (or something like that) and read plenty of stuff, but I actually tried most drugs only after that period.
 
This thread has just reminded of my landlords son who moved in for a couple of months, was chatting to him about drugs, claimed he tried heroin at aged 3 definetly one of the stranger lies I have heard.
 
No, petrol doesn't count. Try again. Hash, weed, speed etc.

Petrol doesn't count?.. try it with 10 e's inside you and you will trip out of your brains happened my many times in my younger days when pills were decent. We used to rob full sized cylinders of butane gas and take turns at a party putting our heads to it (how I could do with one of those now to heat my flat)

Anyways for me was like 15/16 taking a few pulls of a joint (only has back then no weed which I still can't smoke)..then onto e's around 18 - big gap then didnt take coke till about 23/24 and didnt take smack till 29
 
i was a bit different in the sense i stayed away from "hard drugs" (as the dutch call it) till at least 18, i was first introduced to drugs when i walked in on my dad banging up some methadone, i knew he was taking it because he was addicted, but it scared the shit out of me.. i hit 13 and as any normal teen would i smoked cannabis for the first time, i was a very hyperactive person, with a short attention span, cannabis allowed me to sit down and do my homework, cannabis made food taste better , cannabis just made me think about things from a different perspective.. lt was my kind of medication as a teen, i wouldnt touch speed/ecstasy as i was too scared to die haha, my mates would go on about how these pills were belting bla bla bla and i would just stay away from them because i was too scared..

Then one day i read on the internet that truffles could be as much fun as ecstasy (as the website put it) i knew they were legal to buy, and no one had actually died from taking mushrooms so i felt safe , so i purchased them and had them with my mates one day, its safe too say my relationship with drugs would be changed forever, from then on around 18 i went to try MDMA, Speed, aMT, then Ketamine , 2cb.. ect ect =D

its a bit of a shame i just didnt stop everything right after my first mushroom trip, but that would of been boring right .... now im taking clonazepam every night for my anxiety... all because i got hooked on etizolam, i dont know where to go from here other than taper taper taper.... sorry for my rant, i always go off topic ..

It is interesting to read the varied stories of how people was introuduced to "drugs" makes me feel normal compared to some :P

Im just hoping i never go onto the "H" , i have come accross it a few times but just didnt want to try it, think its something i will try one day, just i dont know when , i think its best i take it when im old, like really old, before im dead =D , i think what stops me is seeing what it put my mum through tbh i must get off these benzos and get clean once and for all
 
Friend of a friend of a person your parents did NOT want you to hang around with! Was before such wizardry of the internet :D!

They were all major smokers (resin/Tak) and a few were into heroin - few were trippers, few were into sulphate (speed), some were into whatever they robbed from the chemists.

Was a crazy time :)
