Drugs That Changed Your Life

weed - taught me what paranoia and psychosis really is.
alcohol - taught me how to make everyone around me hate me in seconds, lose everything and destroy your life.
mdma - taught me that nothing will ever make me as happy as taking that drug in my life again.
 
weed calmed me down a lot...maybe too much. smoking a lot of weed alone made me happy in my teenage years and stopped me stressing about pretty much anything, not sure if it was good or bad to be honest

MDMA is a miracle drug that has given me some of the absolute best times of my life and i don't think i'll ever stop loving the way it makes me feel

alcohol hasn't changed my life in any way other than facilitating sex
 
i think the only fair answer would be each and every one.
But opiates stick out far above anything else on the list.
 
Weed - young age introduced me to the idea that not everything you were told was true and that things really were hidden from you, alongside that the world of drugs although I'd drank lots before I just loved weed, it's my drug.

Opiates Oxycontin/Fentanyl - pretty sure as a result of using these from the ages of 14-16 that I was left with anxiety and some form of depression, those were important ages to get out and learn about things, rather than sitting with a nod on for weekends on end, although I'm not sure if it was there before.

LSD - I truly believe acid made me a better person, more open minded and less quick to criticize or be rude to others. I felt a lot more conscious of my actions afterwards and strive a lot more to please others, although I've always been a loyal person I'd say my early teenage years (tried acid at 15 I think) before that I was a bit of a dick to some people, acid and weed really calmed me down a lot but now I've terrible anxiety etc. It was my first psychedelic (although had tried weed/salvia before don't consider it the same). Salvia just showed me how powerful drugs could really be, it scared me in a way.

Alcohol - Without this stuff, I'd never have had my first kiss, lost my virginity in such a ridiculous way or gained the confidence to get out there and make some friends.

MDMA - reinforced in me my love of music, I've no interest in television and movies, music is were it's at for me. Taught me how to dance without caring and that first time at a rave on MDMA seeing so many different types of people come together in one place, for one thing, music, really changed my life. It's a pity I don't see raves as the same way now anymore, but still enjoy them.

Probably the main ones for me. Drugs have had a massive influence on my life.
 
Oh, drugs in general changed me in a lot of ways. I have a far greater appreciation for others and myself. I was an EXTREMELY introverted bookish kid. In fact I valued books above people. I learned pretty early on people are fucked up. Books can't do you wrong so I read on average about 600-800 pages a day everyday at one point, could go weeks without talking to anyone, was standoffish even with close family. Basically the world could go get fucked. I opened up slowly a very little bit in junior high school and made a handful of friends. Now though I still have my brief periods where I'm as I was as a kid most people would say I'm polar opposite of the child me....I am VERY extroverted now. I'd attribute most of this to weed and psychedelics. Of course some of my best friends are still books. :D My entire personality is worlds apart from who I was.
 
Weed is the big one. I felt like I stumbled on a secret the adults were keeping from me. Why weed has such a bad rep I don't know.
Ativan I took for a month at 15 and this led me to get on benzos when I turned 18.
Percocet led me to getting strung out for a couple years just hanging out and selling drugs. What a low life I was.
Alcohol led me to my DUI but also serves as a legal crutch that I use since I quit pain pills so really mixed feelings I got to say.

All and all life is really one big trip!
 
fentanyl really wisened me up to opioids after a few years soon after the prescriptions started. i was an absolute wreck on it; nodding out in the public library computer dock for hours on end with patches stuck on the insides of my cheeks; running to the toilets in the pub ever 20 mins to spew, dripping in sweat and certainly raising an eye-brow or two of joe citizen; skipping classes because i was either too fucked up or because i was going through the hardcore withdrawal it induces; but mainly because it's a humbling reminder of my first couple OD's. it's a lot easier to manage my habit and keep the OD risk down with a morphine or oxycontin script (for me).
 
each and every drug played their role in one way or another if closely scrutinised, some for for the better, and some no doubt for the worse. you live and you learn, there aint no turning back.
