Ever done drugs to "fit in" or be cool?

You who say that you have done drugs because of other people, like limonov, Twitchsta.

How big is the group when this happen?
How well do you know the people?

To me it feels like this might be more common when there is lots of people who don't know each other to well.

my "main group" is made up of about 7 close friend's , we have been friends since primary school and have went through everything from pokemon to meth-amphetamines together.

Being off on amphets in my group's opinion is boring as fuck by yourself , you need multiple people off together to enjoy it because everyone is HEAPS talkative and rushy etc etc
makes for some AWSOME night's trust me , every now and again 1 of us might say "nah man , comedown was fucked last time" and ill say something like , "aww c'mon bro you can stay at mine
and ill cook us up a mad feed in the morning + throw in a session to help our heads" and he will be like "yeah why not" its not cool for me to watch someone sit there bored sober while everyone is off
having a blast , it kinda ruins my mood , and same with my friends , there is nothing more enjoyable than you and your whole group of 5+ depending on how big your group is , walking around
pub to pub or club to club off head , everyone is pumped and confident and it work's better for reeling the girls in no doubt , because the group seems so intresting because everyone being off head
has ALOT to say hahah.

My group is breaking up now tho :( , im 21 and heading off to uni in january (wouldve earlier but got caught up in a 2 and half year realationship) , and 3-4 of my mates are settled down in realatonship's now
so because of this im venturing more into the psychedelic's because they are supposedly a more individual experience , something ill need at uni to keep me sane =D.

Whats going to piss me off tho is all the fresh 18 yr olds just trying amphets for the 1st time at uni , because i want nothing to do with amphets anymore , but no doubt when they hear a few of my intense stories
that i have about being off on amphets they will want me to get on it with them i have no doubt in my mind.

P.S
it is very arrogant/ignorant to not admit peer pressure has affected you over your lifetime whether it be drug related or not , dont you remember being taught in school
"Peer pressure affects everyone" , If it hasn't that means your whole life you have never said yes to a dare , never played a game because other people were ,
never done something because someone said "do it or your a pussy" etc etc , never went somewhere simply because your friends wanted you to come , I mean c'mon
what kind of egotistical fuckwit says peer pressure never affected them. for starter's i bet everyone in this thread knew someone who done a drug or drugs before injesting
their very own first drug...for those who claim they didin't , explain to me how you got your hands on your very first drug. and had you not have known anyone linked to any kind of drug
would you have even tried any drugs?? nobody here can say they would have because nobody knows , either way its pretty obvious that certain area's in certain city's tend to have
more drug use than other's simply because its put in their face more / talked about more in that area , thats just facts.

Actually I didn't know anybody who did drugs when I tried.
My friend who I tried with the first time had never done it before, and it was he who got it from another friend I didn't know at the time.
And my reason to try it was information on the Internet and Anti-drug propaganda, seemed like fun to me.

And yes I've been affected by per pressure but not sense I was about 15.
Some exaggeration but significantly less after that ( changed school ).
And I'm not around the same people that made me do those things when I'm doing drugs.
First 3 years I did drugs there was like 3 people knowing about it and they were all calm.

Don't like stimulants so don't really get that part about doing drugs, don't like to go out clubbing or even meet new people so never that kind of atmosphere.
If I do drugs with people we are ofter three and we smoke some weed and watch TV/play some games or maybe eat some psychedelic drug.

Yes people do influence others so that they might start doing drug but that's not a guarantee that there is per pressure involved.
( But to be realistic I believe it's there to, but the degree may vary )

Doing something that a friend want is not necessarily per pressure, could just be nice and do it for them.
And being affected of per pressure in your normal life doesn't mean you do it when it comes to drugs.
I'm a very sloppy person but when it comes to drugs I'm a lot more organized.
 
Never been affected by drug related peer pressure first time i did drugs i was frantically looking around the house for dxm so i could get high on it because I read it was fun on the internet.
 
Peer pressure and fitting in seem to have a different definition in my mind. I am looking it as... Fitting in is more: "Oh, this group of kids smokes weed! So I must seek out weed and smoke it in order to get in with this group so they will like me." I see that as trying to 'fit in' or 'be cool' and that was what I was answering. If you're already friends with the group, I feel it's different. I didn't answer the question thinking about peer pressure, etc, because I see that as you're already "in with the group", using drugs and whatever and are open to the idea of using them but I've never experienced someone nagging me to take a hit or do a line or take a shot or whatever. I guess I just have more easy-going friends? Perhaps more greedy friends? More introverted friends? Who knows. But "fitting in" and "being cool" was the original question and those are more superficial terms to me...

And if I completely misunderstood everything, fuck it, I'm sober as a judge! And I mean that literally. Fucking stone cold sober...
 
Pssh, aren't you all so totally your own people, so invunerable to peer pressure and social reality. Fuck off, I'd say everyone at one point or another have taken drugs that they didn't want/need/have any interest in in some circumstance because you felt like it was, in one way or another, expected of you.

you mad bro?


sarcasm, it's a bitch to distinguish on the internet
 
Ive never done drugs to be cool or fit in. To me, that was just plain stupid & I tried weed & coke when I was drunk & I myself wanted to try it, no one asked me to try it.
 
That's how I started... My friends started smoking weed, I was reluctant to try it, but peer pressure got to me, so I did it.

Now, I started doing opiates because weed was boring to me. That was all me.
 
I don't think I've ever done it to fit in. I've usually been the "leader" with such things I guess you could say lol. Most of the people I use with absolutely do not mind if you're not taking part because that usually means more for them!

If most of the people I choose to run with knew about some of my habits I would definitely not fit in nor be seen as "cool" in their eyes.
 
not really. most of my friend's don't do much besides weed, alcohol, and nicotine; i keep my drug-use to myself and the internet....
 
I don't believe I have. Almost everything was out of curiosity- even nicotine. I wondered why people thought it was so great to have a smoke, especially while high on MDMA... just had to test it out!
My ex tried to force me to take drugs a few times. I actually think the only drug I was ever really conned into doing was DMT. He knew that I was curious about it, but I didn't really feel completely ready. I wanted to wait a little longer before trying it.. but he convinced me to do it then, since he figured I'd be doing it one day anyways. I gave in because he was starting to get bitchy because I wasn't going to do it with him.

Like with GHB.. a few times he wanted to take it, and I didn't. He didn't like doing drugs alone and would con or force me into taking it, usually by getting mad at me or saying that (for example) he'd never do drugs with me again. Or some other stupid bullshit. One time we were going to do 2ce and he told me that he'd only give it to me if I railed it, which I refused.
 
I only do drugs because my girlfriend and I have a fun time doing it together. And its a good way for me to get away from reality for a little while (:
 
the first time I smoked weed it might have been peer pressure I was 12 and dont really remember exactly what I thought about it. After that though I was the one who wanted to do drugs and generally doing them had negative social consequences so the opposite of peer pressure lol. Now when I was 18 I would talk about my drug use like it was something to be proud of now I try to downplay it its funny how things like that work.
 
I feel like this topic or question applies to some drugs more than others; I mean, my drug of choice is dope, and anyone who does dope knows that there's no being cool or fitting in... we're the outcast's outcasts.
 
Yeah i agree with you Verso , some drugs are more social than other's obviously , and if you smoked a cone or 2 because your friends wanted you to , that really means nothing...
because if you ended up doing other drug's , that was all you.
 
Well I guess I can technically count my nurses as the ones peer presuring me into recieving my first morphine shot. After that I only used drugs off my own free will. Not that opiates leaves you with much unclouded free will...
