I'm new to the world of drugs. I'm 15, i tried only weed, nugmets, dxm, diphenhydramine and cocaine (just once). I was just thinking about this, does someone have ever regret starting drugs? P.S. sorry for my english :)
 
I'm going to be brutally honest with you. You should probably discontinue drug use altogether. Yeah, they're awesome, but at 15 you have way too much important brain development going on to use responsibly. Starting this soon will not only make it harder to stop when you get older, but could leave you with a whole array of health and mental issues. Just wait until you're at least 17 and 150lbs (but you won't technically be out of the woods until about 21).

No, I've never had a reason to regret using drugs. The only regret worthy thing for me smoking weed and experimenting with prescription pills is that some times you just lose time, all the days meld together, and your wallet definitely get thinner. I also blacked out once on Xanax, but I had trustworthy friends around who loved my stupid ass enough to weekend-at-Bernie's me all day when I decided to take too much at a state fair. Nevertheless, (when you get older) you need to be extremely careful and informed about what kind of people you're with, and exactly what you're taking. Every dose should be an informed decision, too many people get caught or put themselves in danger on YOLO moments. Don't be reckless, or afraid to refer to bluelight with questions and you should be okay.
 
I'd actually agree with nerdslayer. You're a little young. I didn't smoke weed until I was 16 and didn't smoke regularly until I went to college (18). Waiting as long as possible is ideal because people do best in life when layering drugs on top of previous interests/hobbies/careers, but it can be tough to build hobbies/careers/relationships on drugs.
 
No!

It is very important to stay focused on school or work though. I lost valuable years to drugs in my early twenties. Years I'll never recover.

Any drug you do that you haven't done before, do months of research on it. I mean dozens of hours. And then, start with a low dose. Reactions are always idiosyncratic. Stay safe! Don't drive high, and socialize with safe people.

Drugs can be fun but they are funnest when you know what you are doing, in and out!!!
 
You're too young to be getting into it, trust me. Let your brain and body finish developing, get to know yourself better. You have many years left to live, you don't need to do it all right now.

Do I regret it? No... what I regret is lack of moderation.

When you're young you don't realize what you're doing to your body. The realities set in once you reach your 30's and you're not a spring chicken anymore. My early drug use involved social scenes where people had the "go big or go home" attitude about everything, which is totally out of line with the HR ethic. But then, I did drugs at a time when old school raving was still flourishing and the average person knew fuck all about drugs. Just saying that it's fine to have fun but also try to honour your future self as best you can too, because your future self is relying on your present choices for his wellness.

I have zero regret about the realizations, insights, and personal evolution I've experienced. People attribute my intelligence to book smarts but I attribute my smarts to doing drugs in creative scenes and greatly enhancing my creative and emotional intelligence. I just wish that someone had pulled me aside near the beginning and said, "Just because you don't feel the harm now while you're young doesn't mean you're not harming yourself."

Some drugs I'm glad I tried, like marijuana or psilocybin.

Others I wish I hadn't tried, like heroin.
 
No. Then again, I didn't even drink alcohol until I was 18 (19 being the legal age.... I thought I was being all crazy drinking alcohol a couple months before my 19th birthday lol). I think it has really helped me see the world in many different ways. I've learned a lot and experienced so much more.

At 15, that's pretty early, you aren't completely grown. Just based on that, waiting a few years would be recommended. Negative effects for most drugs are really increased at that age vs when you're 20.
 
I reread your post RDF and the drug dxm is not bad by itself, please stay away from bad product though. It is chlorpheniramine maleate that is not good and it will hurt your brain in higher amounts.

Stay safe and by the way I would love a report on what you felt taking nugmets :) cheers
 
The regrets. I smoked weed a few times at 13 then used ecstacy tried coke & now meth. Before any drug use i thought wasn't all bad but i knew i shouldn't but now meth, its an addiction. Oh the regrets i have in my life. Not to mention all the $ spent. Some say weed is a gateway drug. In my opinion, don't do them. You will have so many regrets.
 
I don't regret it at all! I work hard and play hard and it's never interfered with my ability to function in life and get ahead (I'm 33)... These are the drugs I have tried so far:
Weed - can't smoke the stuff
E - love this drug but haven't been around it in years
Cocaine - love it when it's most pure but crappy stuff messes up my sinuses for weeks and I hate that
LSD - tried once meh
Mushrooms - tried twice meh
Molly - love it!
 
I don't regret starting drugs because it has opened up so many things for me. Things I would have never knew about, ideas I would have never even thought about, and even people I would have never crossed paths with (some I wish I never did and other's I am so glad that I did). I do regret getting addicted to drugs though and one of those drugs I can truly say I regret doing is heroin (opiates in general). However, I wouldn't change anything.... live and learn.

No. Albiet you are a little to going to be fucking with your brain chemistry

The first time I did MDMA actually spawn this very conversation with a few buddies of mine and it got pretty deep.

I don't regret starting using recreational drugs. Like other people its opened my mind and my life to things I'm very grwayful for. My closest friend and I started hanging out in highschool because I smoked and he found out.

I wasn't very popular in highschool or grade school. I was an easy target to be bullied. And I didn't have many friends. Was always the outcast. Most of the people I went to grade school moved to HS with me so predispositions about me moved with them. My junior year this kid somehow found out I smoked (which I really kept to myself and only smoked with my few friends I had outside of school) and wanted to hang out and through a couple years became my best friend. Him and his close knit friend group accepted me into the group and have been really good to me.

No I don't regret drugs. Which may sound crazy to some people lol.
 
Saw that the original poster is 15. I was 15 when I started doing drugs... I can say that I sort of wish that I didn't at such a young age, but at the same time I am happy I got most of it out of the way. Yet, I wouldn't recommend for you to do drugs at that age... It was all fun and games at first, but by the time I was 16/17 I was already addicted to opiates and then heroin at 18. And I was totally against drugs and everything, lol, but that quickly changed.
 
I didnt start smoking weed until I was 16 and that was just starting so it was like once a month at that point. I did experiment with anything i could find but that was very limited to vicodin, dxm, and weed as those were the only things i could get until i was 18 and started doing psychedelics. I moved on to be a heroin addict and crack head for about 3 years between the ages of 23-27, which i regret in some ways but not in others. My only advise to you is life is really hard and you will regret a lot of things you did when you were younger due to time wasted or experiences missed you only get one chance to live a life as a young person, before the world really expects a lot of you. Doing drugs at a young age will vastly impact your experiences from your parents not trusting you to the girl you like thinking your a drug addict and avoiding you.

In the end who knows what we really missed out on because its gone but the one thing i can tell you is we all missed out on something maybe it wasnt a big deal maybe we dont even know but the activities we could have otherwise engaged in or the experiences missed we will never have again, ever.
 
Drugs are fun, some more enjoyable than others. The majority of us wouldn't be on this forum if we didn't have at least one DOC that we came across during our drug escapades.

When I was in high school, my friends and I would roll 1 - 2 times a month, taking 2 - 5 pills each time. (Pills were a lot weaker back then. Anybody remember the Pokeballs? They're garbage compared to the pills we have today.) This continued for several months. We even planned our schedules around our rolls. Being that young and reckless, I thought I was invincible, that as long as I'm having fun, nothing else mattered. Now that I'm older, I know that my actions could have cause some permanent damage to my body. I may be living with some brain damage due to my ecstasy use. I don't know, but do I regret it? No. Not even the slightest.

Life is an experience. Sometimes you get lucky, and sometimes you eat shit, but you do reflect and learn from it. You learn what works, and what doesn't work. Even if one is battling a serious addiction, I'd argue that there's no point in regretting your past actions: it gets you nowhere. We are humans, capable of adapting to our environment, so make do with what is at your disposal and move forward.
 
Yes! I have an addictive personality and when I latch on to a drug I binge. I'm currently on oxy and it is kicking my ass. My advice..... Stay away. I can't think of anything good that has ever come from drugs and alcohol. Keep your mind fresh and make sure you never know what withdrawal from any drug is.
 
i definitely regret the amount of drugs that i've done sometimes, cause my brain doesn't work like it should anymore and it's lead me into some pretty fucked up situations and it could've ended up a lot worse. I've seen in it in most of my friends. But like zxcvbn said above, life is one hell of an experience. lot of bad times but there's also a lot of good times and I wouldn't be anywhere near as strong and knowledgeable as i am today if it weren't for the bad times. I've seen people who haven't been through anything serious or traumatic in life, lose their minds over something as small as their cat dying or having a fender bender and they just acted as if their whole world fell apart around them. I can't help but laugh at people like that, even though it's only because they're more fortunate and have made better decisions than me, but it kind of makes me proud that i know i can go through a lot, emotionally and physically. it's what makes us human. Gotta learn to grow
 
Yes. I can't imagine living a day without drugs so part of me says no I don't regret a damn thing and I wish I'd have done more drugs and got into them earlier. But many people DO have good lives without drugs or maybe they just drink occasionally or smoke a little weed but for the most part are sober day in day out and it just seems like normal to them. And these people, by in large, have much better lives than I do.

I got into drugs at 14. Real slow and careful as to what I did. Pretty much stuck to just weed and occasional booze with the occasional this or that. Then I graduated high school. A few months later I couldn't find any bud and ended up hanging out at my buddy's trailer trying to score some. At first he wouldn't get me any but finally he got me some weed. Next thing I know his dad offers me a Percocet...and then I started liking those but I couldn't get em all the time so I started getting blow from this kid I met years before. And then came the valiums, and the Xanax and all of it real fucking quick and I was having too much fun to notice or to care.

Next thing ya know I'm a few months from 25 and don't have a car, hadn't been to college in years, got a ton of debt (2300 bucks or so), no friends for 100 miles, haven't had a girlfriend in years (too much drugs to care about that shit like when I was younger). Family has near bout given up on me and I've near about given up on myself.

All for what? So I could see a few funny colors and feel one with the world? So I could nod out while eating ice cream 100 times? So I could pass out after thoroughly embarrassing myself in ways I'm glad I don't remember? Fuck that shit I'd rather have had a life. I haven't learned shit from drugs and cause of drugs I haven't learned shit from life. The only thing I've learned from drugs is how weak and pathetic and selfish people's inner nature is.

I'm not telling you to not do drugs but you can see why I can't tell you everything's gonna be alright if you go ahead. It might be just fine, or it might be the single biggest regret of your life. Good luck dude.
