lets be honest - who uses drugs to escape reality

In a way drugs are an escape from relaity; not because we can't handle it or its all bad, but unreality and a differnet level of conciousness can sometimes be an interesting place to visit.
 
Reality Sux!

I feel like life is the most fun when getting fucked up and still doing better than other, sober people. I love that I can be happy and productive.

I also like to use them in order to explore the depths of myself. I've learned so much from my many experiences. And isn't that what life is about - learning, experiencing, and exploring everything there is to life?

I use drugs to make revelations in my life, to broaden my perspective by experiencing another one. Even if you use it to be more social and meet new friends at least your improving your overall life.

I use opiates when i want to escape and because they don't tend to bring anything to my life i stay away from them. but if i wanted to choose a high to escape reality i'd choose the content feeling opiates bring.

weed and opiates together and all the bad stuff in my mind doesn't seem too bad. that always is until you come down and wanna do it again.

too much escaping reality and you just might forget what reality is
 
It's pretty simple. People use drugs receationaly because they arn't happy with their current sober state. My solution, although very hard, is to get a life. Create a life for yourself where you don't need to be dependant on drugs when your not happy being sober.. it can be done you lazy junkies ;). Don't be afraid of change.
 
the only drug i do is weed, and i wouldn't say its not to escape reality but to gain a but understanding of reality and appreciate it more
 
I mostly smoke weed but when other chemicals come across my path i'm usaly down for anything.. but never to escape reality, mostly just to have fun and Its somthing to do. Its like when your looking at your glass pipe and a bag of nug sitting next to it.. you kinda wonder, well I don't have to but I think it would be more fun to do it anyways. or, what if I get hit by a car tomarrow walking across the road. may as well get high.. but I never smoke weed if I got important shit to do. live life to the fullest and so on..
 
I do at times, whenever something bad is going on i go and smoke a fattie to calm me down.
 
You can't escape reality. You can change your perceptions but never escape. What is reality/real? It is what you see, taste, smell, feel and hear along with all your emotions that make something real. In short whatever you can sense is to you reality. Plato explains this in the Parable of the Cave.

I use drugs to change my perception.
 
I'd say I use drugs more to alleviate realities pains. I suppose thats the same thing as escaping from reality, but I am hesitant to use the word "escape" because you can never really do that with reality... well only temporarly, the bitch always catches up with you.

Everyone uses drugs to some extent to "escape" reality, whether knowingly or subconciously.
 
What do you get out of drugs?

I was reading the "why did you get high today" thread for a few pages, and I was sort of disappointed at the replies I found.

Do you any of you believe there is anything real and substantial and positve you can get out of altering your conciousness?

What kind of drugs do you use when you want to go beyond a cure for boredom or a good time?
 
One night me and my best friend had a really amazing cracksmoking session. One would talk while the other hit the pipe. We'd take breaks and the conversation was so free flowing. We both explained why we cared about eachother in such great detail -- why we complimented eachother so well. These lovely confessions were without the exaggerated fluffiness of an ecstasy high. It was real.

We're not physically intimate with eachother, but after each blast, we'd inhale the other's exhale, often leading to a soft kiss. It was blissful and heartwarming. We really love eachoher and we did a hell of a job expressing it.

When we're in eachother's company we're seldom bored and usually have a great time. The crack triggered something beautiful. Some sort of plutonic romance.

I love you sickgirl :D
 
Sure. Opening windows to fresh thoughts, connections with existence, revelations, and peace. The psychedelics, anyway. (Those are all I take.)

Btw Ketamike: your romance isn't a magma rock dude, it's just platonic. ^.^
 
Psych's yeah, they've changed the way I look at life as a whole and for the better...

everything else I use to get fucked, although that can have positive life changing aspects too- especially my mdma use.

but in general its just a nice escape from the rat-race.

I enjoyed life before drugs, and I'm pretty sure I would have enjoyed it without them..... they just enhance an already good thing for me.
 
Great thread! Thumbs up :)

OK, what do I get out of drugs? Well it's different for every drug

ALCOHOL - I get dumb, and then I get a hangover. Thank God I don't drink anymore.
CIGARETTES - you get wonderful black spots in your lungs. YAY!
MARIJUANA - a couple of months ago I would have had a paragraph of good stuff to write about it. Now all I can say is, hey, it gets me to sleep nicely. And my orgasms are stronger on it. Period.
KETAMINE - well it's a high actually - I know, it sounds weird, but I don't come to any revelations on it, I just watch the pretty colors and think "man, why is this world so ketamined? oh, because i just snorted 200 mg of it. that might be why."
MUSHROOMS - not much anymore, I overdid them a little. I get a laugh and since I always drop with friends it's always fun, but yeah once again, this is only a high for me now. No soul searching or anything, just funky colors and giggles. Still love them though, for many reasons.
COCAINE - a hole in my wallet. Don't do it anymore.
SPEED/METH - never tried it, never will. I figure I wouldn't get much out of it, except probably a nice little habit and some loss of weight.
HEROIN - only did this once (by mistake, I got ripped off) and well, I didn't get much. I just puked and sat there thinking "am I cumming or is this cocaine really weird?"
MDMA - it's been a while, but I got *REALLY* close to my X-buddy. I even said stuff like "your mother is admirable, I want to meet her" ... AND I MEANT IT =D
LSD - e v e r y t h i n g

As for other drugs, such as Morning Glory etc.: I just take them cause it's nice to try something new every once in a while, but all these legal drugs have way better (illegal) cousins.
 
when i get high i realize the world for what it is.. and it depresses me the way everything works. the way people live in fear... its sad... but.. id rather have my eyes open then closed...
