What's one drug-related myth you wish would finally disappear?

It totally turns people gay thats not a myth
And that's why these myths continue. Listen, that person was already gay to begin with, before they got high. That was always inside of them. It became literal because Meth is disinhibiting and libido-boosting, especially in high dose. Meth does not change people's orientation all by itself. Like someone has never had a gay thought before, and then two hits from the oil burner later and a queen diva comes out from nowhere…

I seen it first hand
First-hand? Puts a different spin on "first-person shooter", doesn't it? 😂

and I mean there gay after they quite.
Right. That person is gay with or without drugs. If they didn't know this about themselves, they just needed meth to give them the revelation.
 
One I hear all the time because I've never IV'ed anything in my life is "never ever shoot drugs, because you will go into severe depression upon the realization that you wasted all those drugs over the years by not injecting them." Like no comparison to the euphoria induced.

That's just dumb. Regret over a past you cannot change is a nearly useless emotion, except it helps us to avoid repeating mistakes… hopefully.
 
Persistent drug myth #459 : Any guy over the age of 25 wearing a backpack and riding his bike during midday on a workday is some sort of addict or dealer. **Hey I just happen to like that aesthetic in casual wear and earth friendly transportation okay?**

I know, right ?? It's like the "fear of missing out (FOMO)" for people who are wedded to one ROA or another.

Seriously, is that a thing? I know a LOT of people who commute that way in Brooklyn every day… maybe they're all dealers, shit, what do I know? 😂
 
Persistent Drug Myth #688: Meth causes nasty meth-mouth, if you do meth your teeth will rot out and you will look like Les Claypool in the "My Name Is Mud" video and all the girls will reject you and every employer but McDonald's or the Lusty Lady Video Peep Show downtown will not touch you with a ten foot pole. "You Nasty meth mouthed hillbilly tweaker, you"!!!

Well I suppose if you do absolutely NOTHING to mitigate the extreme dry mouth and lack of saliva production that meth will inflict upon you, and you decide to consume all your calories via Extreme Sour Covered Skittles washed down with Strawberry Cheesecake Mountain Dew and Red Vines for desert whilst ignoring all oral hygiene for months on end, then yeah maybe meth mouth will come visit you instead of the tooth fairy. But please there are basic common sense counter-actions available at your disposal to win this battle over your pristine mouth and that yummy meth you love chewing up along with your Capn Crunch every morning. Take counter measures, Beautiful Community. Let those pearly whites razzle dazzle in the moonlight for you like they did in the glory days.

I remember once on cops saw this white girl over 25 riding her bicycle in the middle of the night with an entire backpack full of meth crystals.

Typical clueless person who experiences weed induced psychosis but is in early stages and the delusions are harmless
Marijuana induces some sort of telepathy.

Just because I'm not with the marijuanana cults, doesn't mean they don't exist. Spirituality or mentalist based new age surrounding the getting high reading a birth chart by a medium or guide. Can be more like internet shamanism

My psychosis comment was mostly a joke lol.

You’re confusing altered perception with actual abilities. Cannabis can distort your perception of reality and make coincidences or random thoughts feel deeply meaningful. That doesn’t mean you’re experiencing telepathy. There’s no credible scientific evidence that cannabis enables mind reading. Feeling convinced something is real doesn’t make it real.
 
Persistent Drug Myth #688: Meth causes nasty meth-mouth
People seem to have forgotten: long before there was crystal meth, hillbillies were known for having bad teeth and poor oral hygiene. Then meth took the blame for it, when the whole time I've been thinking: that's just rednecks, hillbillies, bumpkins and old timers. Dip and tobacco chew certainly don't help the cause. Or how about the happy horseshit that meth is "criminogenic"? That's one from the Addiction-Recovery Industrial Complex. Meaning to say: meth causes people to commit other crimes as one of its effects… Yeah fucking right. People need to take responsibility for their actions and not try to blame drugs or any other inanimate objects for their own shortcomings, flaws and failures…
