Did Weed Did Open You Up To Trying Other Drugs?

Nah, I love drugs. It's all lifesyle and ultimately choices. Some are influenced, but also, everything is...You do one thing, it almost always leads to another. In many cases...
 
I'm quite certain my friends had a lot more influence over me than weed did when it comes to trying new things. I tried weed, loved it, and then they asked if I wanted to try e several months later, and so I did.

I don't think weed is a "gateway drug," I think your friends and the people who care about you are "gateway people." The drug doesn't tell you to use a different drug. People do. I plan on trying shrooms when we grow some more, but that is by no means the fault of weed. I'm simply enamored of the idea of transcending mental barriers. Psychonaut =D


But I'm extremely grateful to them for having shared both of these wonderful gifts with me :)
 
Cannibis had nothing to do with my interest in psychedelics and pcp especially, it was DARE in elementary school;)
 
Yeah i guess i started smoking weed when i was 14 i just turned 17 and i have been abusing opiates, benzos tried coke also e and shrooms. First drug i tried was alcohol but i never really thought of it as a drug. Then at 15 I smoked bud daily up until this day but when i gained a huge tolorance i ventured into other drugs mainly opiates.
 
Most drugs can be said to be a gateway drug! its the altered state of mind you get that says "that was goood!, wonder what this is like!) i tryed mdma first, but all i do is smoke n de odd benzo sometimes(2gether:D) ive tried most things, but i wudnt go blaming any drug for it; more my quest not to be sober:8
 
Yeah blue moon is right. I think people that do drugs do it because they enjoy the intoxication and that opens up your mind to try more intoxicants :)
 
its the lies the whisky drinking world tells you about harmless drugs like
grass
shrooms
lsd
mescaline
etc
that make these lead to heavy stuff. lead me to speed balls and back.
 
Weed might of made me realise how easy it was to access other drugs. But it also made me content with not touching them.

But then booze came along. Suppose you could say it was ciggarettes that started it all in that respect.
 
After weed I didn't want to do any other drugs. Even now I rarely smoke unless its all I do and I plan on going to bed. For some reason I kinda lose it on chronic and can't function at all. I've never felt like that on any other drug

Alcohol for me was the gateway drug later on. Lose most morals and just want to get more fucked up. College too, I didn't realize how many people had done the drugs I had never even seen before
 
No. Cigarettes did.

I distinctly remembered being fascinated watching my parents and their friends smoke when I was less than 10 - probably about 7 or 9. My sister and I stole a cigarette at about this age (she being +2 years) but fucked if we knew what do with it...

next was alcohol, thinners, cannabis, etc, etc...
 
If the gateway theory is true, then theoretically if weed was never around drugs such as ecstasy wouldnt be as popular right? But in such a sick and cruel world, i think people would still being doing drugs just as much as they do now, maybe even more? People will take drugs no matter what, marijuana is just more popular, safer, cheaper and more available and thus people are more likely to try it before trying more hardcore drugs. Its more like a safety step into the world of drugs
 
No I wanted to try heroin and acid, but thought I should work my way up sort of speak.
Six yrs later I haven't tried either of those two yet.

Just felt safer to start with weed, but yea in a way I did wonder that if weed felt this good other drugs must be amazing kind of thing.
 
No, but it enabled me to meet people and spark an interest in other things which I then researched and tried.

The reason I first got into weed was one of my best friends and I were talking about it one day back in high school and then did some reading about it and decide we wanted to find some. Given my personality I was given the task of finding it for us, which I did a few days later and we smoked a joint after school that day.
 
Yes and no. I became open to try other drugs because i was talked in to it by the people i got or did weed with. If it was legal and i could of just went to the store and got it, i doubt i would have "expanded" my mind.
 
A lot of it had to do with the fact that I was lied to and all of the consequences of marijuana use greatly exaggerated. After giving weed a whirl, exploring other drugs also seemed like a good idea. I wanted to draw my own conclusions.
 
Psychonautical said:
Thats like saying, because you have drinking water.

That means you must have tried Tang.

I'm pretty sure in africa, they don't have Tang, or even water suitable enough to make tang with.
Click to expand...

I fucking LOL'd.

When I decided I wanted to try smoking pot, I also decided I would be open to trying other substances of interest.

Pot came first because I lived in bumfuck egypt, Alabama and that's all I could find when I was fourteen.
 
First of all let me say, I think you need to be a certain kind of person to do drugs without it effecting your life.

Ok well, first of all I thought the idea of cigarettes were cool when I was 12, then sometime later while I was 12 I tried weed like 3 times, then by 13 I was smoking weed a couple times a week, then 14 and 15 I was smoking weed daily and researching other drugs on erowid that intrigued me. So I realized the older I got the more people I was meeting, the more drug culture people who some of which had access to other drugs, so when I decided I wanted to start trying psychedelics because ever since like 3rd grade when I saw D.A.R.E stuff they intrigued me, I was 16 and started seeking them from my friends, mushrooms I tried a handful of times, also tried dxm and nitrous in that time.

Now I'm 17 and I've really enjoyed smoking weed, doing acid every once and awhile, ketamine every once and awhile. I sort of want to try MDMA but I dunno.

Oh yeah, also when I was 12 I tried seroquel
 
The way I look at is, If there was no such thing as weed, I can Guarantee you, that I would of tried harder stuff anyway. Alcohol is the biggest Gateway drug, and the most evil drug in some ways.
