I was just wondering.. maybe some of you can give some insight... To each threr own,,
Be safe, enjoy the roll..
I just saw your post and thought you had a very valid question here. Most of my heavy drug use (heroin, crack, coke, meth, etc.) didn't come until age 18 up until now (i'm 19 now, in fact my post is on the page before this if you wanna check it out)...but I thought I'd comment on your post. I think a large part of one's drug use has to do with their peers. I know I would not have tried some of those drugs had it not been for their availability through friends. But at the same time it was my own curiousity that led me towards some (heroin). I was so interested in heroin that I read up enough about it and went by myself to the ghetto (in chicago) and just tried scoring some dope, that's honestly how I got started. But once I started doing that I also hung around more people that did dope, so naturally there were a lot more other drugs available to me...so I took advantadge. Sorry for all the rambling, I guess my main point is, the age one tries drugs at has a lot to do with their own priorities/interests as well as their social group.
