Were you ever anti-drug?

Never antidrug, had always been interested in them - especially psychedelics - , but had maintained they weren't for me until I was 15 and I made the choice to start smoking cannabis. Now i've done more drugs than most people I know or have known.
 
i was antidrug for a long time until i was about 14, then we had a class at school to warn us all of drugs and how they described LSD sounded good to me, i was still pretty anti drugs though just curious about LSD until i was about 17.
 
I can't really say I was ever really 'anti'-drug. When I was younger I just never really cared, and never saw myself even wanting/needing to a use a drug. Then one day a few asked me if I wanted to smoke some weed. I just shrugged and said 'sure' and thus we began.
 
I always wanted to try weed. but i promised myself no pills or power or needles

After i'd tried weed, i started on pills (E's)

After that, coke/ket (powder)

Never touched needles though, I'm very proud of myself for that :)
 
used to be. i didn't ingest ANY substance whatsoever until i was 18 yrs old (after returning from a residential rehab program).

i got sent to rehab for different problems than substance abuse. that experience gave me an interest/curiosity about drugs that i never would've had otherwise. i was socially excluded because i lacked the (drug) experiences of the other girls.

parents: don't send your non-drug using and non-drinking children to rehab.

ha ha
 
I am now the most anti-drug that I've never been. Over a year in a morphine/heroin addiction, now shooting up to 4 times a day, I understand how this is not supposed to be started by anyone in the present world.
 
I've never been antidrug, at least since I was old enough to know what drugs are. DARE increased my interest in drugs. I had no thoughts of using drugs prior to that. After a while, I sort of forgot about drugs for a few years.

The DARE pigs visited my class back in third or fourth grade and talked about drugs. They talked about hallucinations, which sounded like fun. They also talked about how bad drugs were. I was a little kid, so did not understand what the big deal was or what drugs did. They gave out pencils and some other shit with the names of lots of drugs on them and the Just Say No message. I was thinking about all of those different drugs as if they were candy and imagining what it might be like to do them. I wonder how many other kids had a similar reaction? There was also this cartoon I watched in school, maybe in 2nd grade. The kids used drugs and started seeing cartoon characters coming to life. That temporarily made me want to use drugs, even though I did not know what they were.
 
I was extremely against drug use up until the age of 15.

Then all of a sudden I had an urge to try everything. 8( I don't know what changed my mind, but I tried alcohol for the first time, then just wanted more of these experiences.

I like to think it turned out for the better. :D
 
I can't remember ever being against drugs. In middle school, I must have been interested in them, because people always assumed I was a huge druggie even though I never did anything. I always researched a lot, and was very interested by the different categories of drugs and such. In high school I became an anarchist and scared a lot of people in my rich conservative town when I would argue for the legalization of all drugs without exception in class debates. But I still never tried anything, though I was aware of at least weed, oxy, and adderall being used by some of my friends. At some point in high school I started to become interested in psychedelics, though I can't remember why. I just knew if I were ever to try a drug, shrooms would be my first choice. I didn't seek them out, but the thought stayed in the back of my mind.

When I got to college, I immediately made friends with the stoners, started drinking heavily, and tried weed a bit later, though I instinctively knew it wouldn't be my thing. I tried that a few times, got bored, and began to research psychedelics online. At the first opportunity I tried salvia, and a few weeks later shrooms, and from that point on I was a dedicated druggie.

I'm still not sure what kept me away from drugs through high school. My older sister went to raves, one of my friend groups would rail any pill they could get their hands on, I knew where to go to get weed, I was even interested in drugs and fully supported people's right to use them. But I just never made that first step. I have a feeling if one of my close friends had offered me shrooms, I would have done them, it just never came up, and I wasn't interested in drugs that wouldn't make me see things.
 
No, I was never "anti" drug, but for me the philosophy of "anti-" or "pro-" never comes into much equation since I neither negate nor consider some for and something against. I do, however, take upon a particular vehemence towards "push-button" drugs which gain hold and take control of the users motivational desires. If you observe it it is really difficult to have faith in something of "free will" when the irresponsibility of taking control of their emotions is detracted by the use of hard drugs. The image of monkeys and rats in cages in applications to humans comes to mind. We are so called born with "looking upon concsciousness" to give rational decisions, but I have noticed mainly irrational behaviors from human beings in relationship to drugs. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but some drug users need to fall off the fucking planet if they are so self-absorbed in their drug and their next hit.
