Why do you use drugs?

Theres information everywhere, its not hard to at least be safe, i dont particularly want to die, or end up in hospital with my parents finding out. Haha.
Yeah, i have them both saved in my favourites, i've been using erowid for a while now.
I've been thinking about trying a few other things this holidays, so i've been reading up alot the last few weeks, finding people i trust to do it with etc.

Im very quiet around people i dont know, but around my friends im fairly talkative i guess. When you get some good ones, i dont know how people could not like them. Haha.
 
Ecstasy/Psychs - For fun or if I am alone, to explore my mind 8(.
Stims - Usually to keep me awake. I'm not a big user of meth and usually only use it when I need to, certainly enjoy it though :D.
Opiates - They give me a feeling like no other, definitely my favourite atm.
 
I consider myself a stoner, dont use other drugs much. I smoke because i love the culture, and i dont fiend the high like i would if it were another substance. It makes me feel good where i am, i love the taste and the smell, I love glass, i love having this magical drug that makes me feel above everyone else, because im soo highh., and they arent lol (well at least i think they arent). It also helps any anxiety because i dont bother with the small shit that bugs me anymore..
 
I find Weed makes me paranoid, im terrified of getting caught. I also go terribly quiet when i smoke, are you one of the stoners that laughs at everything? haha, everyone keeps saying thats what most stoners are like. But i know very few stoners who laugh at everything.
 
instant gratification - as infantile as can be . most of population and certainly most of my friends and acquaintances would never stick a spike into their carcass .
am i damaged goods -fuk yeah

Some weeds do make me paranoid and anxious (sativas) but thats just a sign for me to get out and go do something to enjoy the high.

I dont laugh at everything, but my sense of humor is definatley elevated. I guess i do find some things funny that alot of people wouldnt.

So yeah , i guess im like most stoners you know lol =D
 
Haha, I dont laugh at anything, its really weird. I just kind of stare off into the distance alot.
And i have no motivation to do anything, just makes me want to lie and watch movies.
Still enjoyable occasionally. I couldnt do it alot though. =P
 
Every drug has its own use.

MDMA / Ice : To enjoy the maximum of clubbing. To keep me awake especially at festivals and raves where one could not last as long with just plain booze. Music appreciation I also love its empathy effects of MDMA which brings me closer to people that arnt as close to me.

Psychedelics: To take up the full benefit of doofing and blending into ur surroundings. I have learnt alot from shrooms and it has changed the way i look at things in a positive way. I have been battling anti socialness for quite sum time and it has helped me so much more. I also use it to appreciate nature and to see the world how it really is without the filters. The brain is an incredible thing and psychedelics helps us get an idea of how it actually works.

Opiates: Mainly for relaxation after a long hard day at work. I never liked the boring weekdays.

Benzos: Again for relaxation and on comedowns after a long ice binge and sumtimes after acid trips when i require sleep.

Weed: Not a fan of it so i normally do it out of pure boredom every now and then or when its free lol

RCs: Mainly to try to find a substitute for something that is hard to come by. Also like trying new things. New feelings = more excitement.
 
I used to be strongly against drugs, I was a very sensible child and up and till I was 16 used to look down on people at school who smoked weed. Curiosity hit me almost overnight and since smoking weed for the first time at the school prom I was fascinated with drugs and there effects.
I take have taken drugs for many reasons, I was addicted to weed for 3 years so always needed a spliff to get to sleep. All other drugs have been taken for social enhancements, I'm a sucker for peer pressure and after a few beers I will take anything you put in front of me all be it opiates and crack.
Psychedelics are very different reasons, sometimes I wan to leave reality and other times I want to find the introspective qualities they offer.
Generally though, Its all about those special moments with friends. All the deepest emotions that come with the effects always reminds me how lucky I am to know the people I do.
 
back in highschool, i used to hate drugs. Totally against it. Although most of my friends from highschool were mad stoners. They know I disaprove of it and they were cool about it.
Been a fairly big trance head since highschool too. And with the dance music, comes the drug culture. Which I had successfully avoid for many many years. My first tiesto concert 2003 @ rod laver arena I went drug free. Was loaded up on shit tons of alcho thou.
Went to europe for a backpacking tour end of 2006-to about early 2007. Was in London, caught up with an old friend from back in the old country. He was fairly into drugs. he has been for a long time. I decided to try the good ol' ekkie for the very first time. He reconmended me to get mdma crystals instead. And that we did. Went to an drum and bass thing taht night. And although i hated the dnb musik. THE musik was fantastic that night. Did not get a full roll my eyes off offtap effect that night though which was heaps weird. Couple weeks later tried it again with another mate in london. 4pills that night. And man I was loved up to the max. yes i know 4 eu pills for my 2nd time. As I did not know how pills and drugs work at the time I just took as many as my friends took. And yeah i was totally mashed. And thats how my drug life begin. Since then I've tried almost all of the party drugs out there, pretty much H is the only thing i Haven't and probably will not until at a later age I guess.
Its been 3-4yrs now. 50+lsd trips, 100+DOI trips, few doc trips, OBscene amount of nos. Plenty of balls of ketamine, And ekkies, probbably in the amount of 400-500 and counting (provinging good pills come back) Meth a few times, This killa ICE thats been around a fair few times in the last 2-3 months. Mushrooms, RC's 2cb 4mmc. Codiene,benzos, weed rare occasion. Basically you name it. I done it. Charlie, only once, due to the extreme pricing of that. If it was like as cheap as eu/american prices i think i would have done it a fair few more times.

MDMA is my first love and it will always be my last <3 had 3 rainbow retards from about 2yrs ago friday night (tripple dropps estimating about 50-60mg of mdma in each. so it was a 150mg-180mg mdma dosage)4+hrs of cloud nine. Oh man first time in a very long time fully loved up to the max, Lieing on my friends carpet rubbing the carpet thinkiing OMFG THIS FEELS SO GOOOOOOOD! Not looking forward to the scattered working week thou.

and thats my 2cents <3
 
In a nutshell: Because they're a metric fucktonne of fun.

:D

Ok, I could probably elaborate a little ;)

I've had some pretty amazing experiences while using various drugs - those experiences have taught me a lot about myself, other people and where i fit in the universe, to a lesser degree. Substances like MDMA have led me to open up a little more about myself (and be less guarded), psychedelics have opened doors to unexplored parts of myself (a little anyway, i far prefer self exploration while not under the influence of anything - each to their own, i guess :)), and also have given me the opportunity to see the world through different eyes, which is fantastic. It's not all been fun and games though; i've had terrifying experiences on psychedelics - but have integrated those experiences, and look upon them more philosophically. I've seen drugs bring out the best in people and some pretty nasty sides - for instance, MDMA doesn't necessarily make everyone a big puddle of love. When i indulge nowadays (which is almost non-existent), i'm *really* selective with who i take drugs around. I have no issue with being around people under the influence, but won't necessarily indulge myself.

Also, they're a metric fucktonne of fun =D

It's interesting reading about people who were anti-drugs and are now using, I wasn't really ever anti-drugs when I was younger I was interested in them but not using them when I was young I guess.

Also lets not make this a dicksizing thread. :p
 
I was always fairly ambivelant towards drugs. Wasn't rabidly anti-drug, but I always just thought of them in terms of things that happened to other people. My parents would rarely have so much as a glass of wine with dinner, and I had a fairly sheltered middle class style upbringing.

I remember the first time I got drunk, I had a few shots of vodka, then as they first kicked in, it was like 'oh, wow, so that's what it feels like.' The whole experience of altering consciousness with chemicals was novel to me, whereas now it's sobriety that feels weird. I've become so used to having drugs on hand to control my brain chemistry that leaving it at the whim of my environment feels strangely uncomfortable.

If you told the 14 year old me that by 20 I'd have sampled basically every major recreational drug available, include quite extensive patterns of use with several, I'd have said you're nuts.

I use drugs for too many reasons; fun, boredom, anxiety, depression, insomnia, study, you name it. I am fairly stoned right now, I smoke at night to help me sleep, but I only smoked this early because I am bored and stressed out. Gonna crack a drink in a couple minutes...
 
Yeah I was anti drug too before I was 18. Used to make fun of the ravers all the time. Then when I found out my best mate and a girl I liked did pills it spiked my curiosity.

My parents are pretty anti drug despite them both enjoying a drink after work and mum being a smoker. I was in the bad books when they found needles in my room although I said I was holding them for a roid using friend
 
lmao.

Yeah i was anti-drugs in school, up til 15.

One day, mum introduces me to this guy - he needs his PC fixed.

Anyway, there I am, fixing his machine. He walks in, with a gigantic bag of some kind of beige/brown powder.

He explains to me it is 'speed' and he sells it to truckers, to help keep them awake. He proceeds to tell me that it's likely my friends would probably enjoy it, as it's quite fun to snort up the nostril. He hands me a gram for my services with his computer.

I take this gram home, and begin research. I'll add that I was desensitized to drugs, however anti their use I was, thanks to mum and dads use of weed throughout my history.

So a month later, I tell one of my mates that at home, in the freezer, I have a gram of speed that I don't know what to do with. He tells me to bring it around.

The rest is history. 2 weeks later I had numerous meth dealers, and a large circle of drug using friends. A further 2 weeks later - I found the magical chemical known as MDMA - the randomness of that situation was almost similar, however I had already been on meth.

I'll note these things: Throughout my personal history - i couldn't even swallow a panadol tablet for pain relief. Meth cured that phobia, when a friend offered me this little white tablet emblazoned with a '007' logo in 2003. Said snort half, and eat the other half. Swallowing that tablet was amazingly easy.

Erowid soon became a great friend - and the world of psychotropic drugs was opened.
 
^haha another nerd. I was fixing PC's by 13 :p

I was never really anti-drug. I first discovered marijuana when I was 10 and used it without even knowing it existed. I did my research after I tried marijuana and my fascination with drugs just snowballed from then. Lots of time reading over Erowid.

I couldn't swallow tablets until I was 16 either. The first ecstasy tabled I had I chewed and I was smart enough to make sure I swallowed it next time. That fell into my lap randomly too heh. Was the first thing apart from weed/booze I had had.

I was always fascinated by drugs as a kid. Hunted weed down as soon as I knew it existed in my town. I was itching to hallucinate from about the age of 12 and after reading books on psychedelics I only got more keen. I think I was 14 or 15 when I first did mushrooms and I haven't one regret about that. Mushrooms taught me more than most teachers ever could...

I used to get so much shit from girls in high school because I drank alcohol, smoked weed and took mushrooms. The main culprit came up to me in a club many years later and asked if I had any pills 8)

I know a few ex 'anti's' that are now very heavy users. Most of them swore they'd never use. An old friend that didn't even smoke weed until he was 27 is now a daily opiate user and loves a good boot of speed.
 
I was fairly dead against it - after my mother being a very heavy dope smoker & it basically annihilating my family (along with alcohol, for a few generations)....but then I discovered that there were other types of drugs that had different effects, i.e., didn't turn people paranoid and psychotic. I always marvelled at the stories you'd hear of teenage girls dying from eccies and of documentaries you'd see about people who lost themselves to opium by-products :p I guess you could say that the fact that so many people took drugs meant that they had to be pleasurable to some extent....

when I read up about all the different sorts of drugs, I was convinced coke and meth were the drugs for me. lol. I was half-right. MD & meth are my personal picks (though not in combination I might add)....aaahhhh who knew I'd end up here!
 
I was never inherantly against drug use despite my parents being so anti.
I just never suspected I'd do them.
Up until two mates and a girlfriend rock up at my house, expecting we'd just chill out and they go so..... wanna have a pill?

It's funny... because up until then hadn't really even occured to me to try, and definately didn't expect to be in a position to do so anytime soon. But as soon as they said they were gonna try em I was sold.

Never really looked back since.
