I noticed that the "our high school years" thread is getting a lot of attention, and I think it has a lot of amazing stories in there. Unfortunately, I did not do drugs in high school.

I did search and I wasn't able to find a thread like this, so hopefully this will be a good alternative to the high school thread.

Did anyone else not do drugs until after high school, until college, until after college?

I did smoke weed for my first time at age 18, but did not do it regularly. All I did at 18 was smoke cigarettes. I waited until I was 21 to drink alcohol.

I did not start using drugs regularly until I hit age 24 and was about half way done with my first degree. I started using marijuana very frequently, then got into the research chemicals and did those frequently. I overdid it with the psychonaut thing and my priorities got messed up. I went from a 4.00 GPA and loving classes to hardly being able to make it to classes, not caring about classes, having to drop out and I actually failed a few. My GPA dropped to a 2.96 in just two semesters since I started experimenting.

I re-prioritized since then and have been doing very well again, about to finish my first degree. I somewhat regret that I should have been done with this by now, though, but I don't regret the experiences. Now I don't smoke cigarettes, drink once or twice a month, don't smoke weed, trip every few months because I still enjoy it.

How about the rest of you?

I am editing this thread to include the general question of wat age you started using drugs at. Thank you for sharin your story with us emperor. Now lets see when everybody else started. Im sure theres lots of late bloomers like you on here. :)


Also, guys please keep in mind - DO NOT INCLUDE ALCOHOL OR UNINTENTIONAL CHILDHOOD DRUG USE such as getin prescribed codeine syrup for a cough when you were 7. That DONT COUNT. Alcohol is a drug , but for the purpose of this poll, it dont count, we already got threads about drinking, so lets keep this to the drugs that you did intentionally for the purpose of gettin fucked up. And for the love of god please dont vote age 10 becuz you drank your first cup of coffee back then and "caffeine is a drug." 8) Do not vote age 8 becuz you drank a beer with your dad as a joke. I can see from the replys that people did do that, becuz theres a post that says somebody drank when he was 8 and theres a vote for under age 9. Once again. this aint to say that alcohol aint a drug but the purpose is to see when you entered into the drug culture and the world of DRUG USE. And theres a big difference between a kid that sips wine at dinner when he is 9, and kid that smokes a joint when he is 9, so thats why we are saying not to include alcohol. It aint hard to understand so please vote with those specifications in mind.

Its pretty simple, so just use common sense kids. Were talkin about intoxicating substances you did on purpose with the intention of gettin fuckin wasted, not nicotine, alcohol, caffeine, or anything that you were legally prescribed with medical purpose and took as prescribed.

So lets say youre 8 years old and get a script for adderall for your ADD. You take it as prescribed for years, and one day when youre 15, you decide to sniff it to get fucked up and see if you can get a high out of it and get all tweaked out. So , you would put age 15, not age 8. cuz if you didnt do it with the intent of gettin fucked the fuck up, then it dont count, even if it was a real drug entering your body. This is asking the first age that you wanted to get high, and went out and obtained a drug in order to do that. Whether it was weed, percocet you stole from your mom/aunt/grandma, a tab of acid your older brother gave you, a line of coke,watever......Capisce?

Lookin forwarrd to seein the results here.

peace,
lacey

I am gonna merge this thread with one we already got that asks when you started using drugs. Youre basically asking the same question just worded different, so Ima get this sent over to the other thread before anybody replies and that way it dont confuse people.

EDIT: Well, i guess that thread has gone on to the thread archive in the sky cuz i cant find it for shit. theres a lot of threads that got closed asking wat age you started using drugs at, and they all say "We already got a thread on this, use the search engine" but it must have been such a old thread that it got pruned when they cleaned up the forums a few years back. So let this be the "when did you start using drugs" thread now.

first started smoking at age 13

i first got drunk at like 11 but that doesn't really count as that was just like woo im drunk, it didn't start regular drug use :P
 
Started smoking weed at 12. I did a perc or two here and there from 15 on, but never really got into opies on the regular until last year. (22) Now Im 23 and a dope head. Go figure.

Other than weed and opies, I havent tried anything except for a little bit of shrooms a few months ago, and they were free. Nothing but opies really peaks my interest for some reason. :\


EDIT: I think I had some bud with PCP on it once..
 
17: tried pot
19: i become a daily user of cannabis and trip on mushrooms. that was a nice time.
20: Adderall for study purposes. Xanax to come down. Eased into opiates with purple drank. I also tried LSD.
21: Cocaine, just a little bit. Hyrdrocodone, a lot of it.

I gotta say I'm happy with the ages that I tried each drug. I'm glad i did psychedelics first and im glad i didnt do it too young. Now i have to avoid getting too deep into the opiate game, which i think im doing ok with.
 
not including alcohol, i probably had my first drink when i was like 8 or before, like with my parents... but i started blazing at 13... but only did other drugs when i got to 17 or 18 and i'm glad i didn't encounter class A's before or i would have fucked up school even more than i did...
 
15, dxm took my virginity away lol. smoked at 16 and started tripping muschrooms and cid. If I could go back, I wouldnt change a thing.

13. Glad I started then. I found that I got the most of smoking weed when I was that young. The youthful imagination along with the creativity brought about by weed/other drugs was just awesome.
 
WEll considering alcohol is a drug, I was ten when I would sneak into the liquor cabinet and chug straight hard liquor. 13 was when i first did street drugs, snorting oxycontin, cocaine, and eating shrooms, it wasnt until I was 15 that I tried pot lol
 
14 - Smoked weed rarely.
15 - Smoked weed near daily. Tried Hydrocodone, Ritalin, DXM. Drank infrequently.
16 - Smoked weed daily. Tried Oxycodone, Mushrooms, LSD, various benzo's. Still my fav was Weed.
17 - Got into Cocaine + Crack, Morphine, Xanax, Amphetamine.. etc..? Lol.

'Gateway Drug'... LOL. (sarcasm)
 
drunk and stoned by 13, had to have my older cuz show me how to use the pipe after i'd told him i'd smoked weed a bunch before, LOL
 
hey, to the people who posted age 8 or 10 becuz u had a drink then - It specifically says in the original post to not count alcohol. Most people are counting weed or other illegal drugs as their first time so that skews the results if you are posting age 10 cuz of alcohol and somebody else who drank at 10 posts age 12 cuz thats when they smoked weed. I aint saying that alcohol aint a drug, cuz it is...but for the purpose of THIS POLL - DONT INCLUDE ALCOHOL.
 
18 when I first started using often, I had "tried" alot of drugs before that like cocaiune, weed, X, acid but at 18 I found my true DOC opiates. From then on I have been using started with oxy and moved to heroin8), the whole sha'bang
 
I started out smoking pot and drinking when I was 12 and then when I was 14 I started using LSD and mushrooms. A year or so after that I got into Oxycodone and when I was 17 I got heavily into heroin. These days I mostly just smoke pot and take a psychedelic of some kind once a month :)
 
i said eleven. only because when i forst started smoking pot some girl asked "isn't he a little young?" and i replied with "nah, i'll be 12 in a few weeks" lol

weed 11
e/coke 17
tried crack at 18. didnt like the taste
 
Stole some loratabs out of the medicine cabnit and took 30mg at 15 before school... got caught and sent to ALC :\

smoked weed at 16
