when you were a kid were you anti-drug or pro-drug ?

I was never anti-drug. I remember as a kid I used to kid around about sniffing markers or glue when I was in second or third grade. The first time I was actually offered a drug [I was passed a joint when these people I just met where baking out a tent] I just took a hit without even thinking about it.

i never had opinions on drugs, really. I just sort of assumed I wouldn't do them, until I was presented with the opportunity to take them, and then... uh, I did.

And now look at you! [see username] ;)
 
i grew up around my father and many of his friends growing and smoking dope with cartons of beer around the place every weekend they had off of work around our place or anothers'.

i was never for or against it but had a natural propensity for experimentation when the time came and my mind was made up with a cousin and friend of his when we went fishing.

my cousin told me to grab a handful of dack my dad had stored and i did. a few joints were rolled before we headed out in the tinny up the river on a fishing adventure and were taken out and lit up when we got to the spot. i loved it instantly. we even managed to catch a few fish.

i laughed my ass off the whole time most likely getting on the nerves of said cousin and friend but had no care in the world. i was having the best time of my life. from then on (was 12) i experimented with pot and alcohol up until 18 when i started taking mdma and speed.

I was strictly anti-drug until I got to high school. At age 14 I slowly became more curious until about age 16 when I started seeking drug info voluntarily. I started smoking weed and drinking at 17 and was very pro-drugs throughout college. Since graduation I've been become more moderate with my views and no longer have blind faith in taking drugs.
 
I was pretty open to anything as a youngster.
When I was 12 or 13 I tried pot.. a lot of my friends thought it was cool to go straight edge, but I never took part in that shitty phase.
Before I was classed an adult I had experienced addictions to various class of drugs.
 
but i still despise the typical stoner

Perhaps it's my sleep deprived brain, but I believe the government can stop the drug war whenever they feel like it.

The government is divided on ending the drug war; you have parts of the government that want to end it, and other parts that are making bank with the endless drug war.

An endless war makes a few people a bunch of money; refer to Vietnam as an example.
 
I was fairly neutral up until my freshman year in high school when I met a good friend who had been smoking weed among other things for a couple years. I never partook but I witnessed him smoking and tripping and how it affected him, and from then on had a pro-view of drugs. I didn't even drink or smoke until I was 20, but always supported people's right to choose what they put in their bodies in the years prior to that.
 
hmm. i was very into the hippie thing as a kid. the beatles, obsessed with john lennon. into hippie shit, for what i understood it to be anyway. this was all before puberty. then DARE made me paranoid for about 2 years (from 5th to 7th grade). i was seriously terrified of even the idea of potheads. 8th grade i saw the light, so to speak. and discovered punk rock and was pretty fucked up at the same time, so i might have you know, gone into it a little more than head first.
my parents were very anti drug, and law enforcement careers, and ...terrifying people, but that didn't affect my decisions much.
i'm "pro drug" now in that i very much need access to the RX i need or else i'm going to be pandering to a lower level self medicating due to some illnesses. and the war on drugs is, you know, a load of shit.

Actually this (with hard drugs).

With pot I was the one who went to talk to the 'stoners' to buy my very first overpriced weed. :D
Good times!
 
I was anti-drug.... even drew posters up for d.a.r.e. Took a picture with my dare officer. Was never going to touch cigarettes, alcohol or any drug for that matter. Then I turned 15 and my brother snuck us alcohol at a chinese restaurant. It was 151 proof... later that night my sister 14 at the time and I decided to party with our brother. I thonk he was 23 by that point and he was like I've been waiting for this day. We then bought a lot of alcohol.. I smoked my first cigarette ever. We then got really drunk and I actually asked my brother if we could smoke weed since I noticed a dead pot plant in the basement. Lmao took my first hit listening to bone thugs and biggie..... shit there was no turning back. The same year I had found out my dare officer was in the paper for having a threesome with two officers at the police station.
 
I was soooooo anti-drug through school - elementary school, high school, university, and my first year of college. Second year of college (after I had met my bf and learned about drugs), I became pro-drug.
I grew up in a REALLY small town (think: 1,000 people. we had a convenience store, post office, library, fire station, and a park. there was one family restaurant about a 10 minute drive away). I was the good kid - you know, 90+ average, gonna get a good job, etc. etc. I met some people in high school who did drugs and drank (I was completely against alcohol too!) and I was all like "it doesn't make sense" to them. Hahah. I can't believe some of the things I believed then!
 
Oh, I MUST chime in on this one just on the irony of my answer. I am 45. I dont know if its still out but there was this magazine for KIDS named "Highlights", which was at my dentists office. I think I got a subscription for Christmas once. Anyway in this magazine for kids 6-12, the centerfold for one issue listed every drug category that was abusable. and listed effects, side effects, slang terms, and I remember right, methods of admin. I looked at it when I was either 9 or 10, and being a smart kid, "hyperactive", curious, I got out my dictionary, to find out what "euphoria" and "hallucinations" meant. I kept that centerfold for as long as I lived at my parents house. If it wasnt for that well descriptive page..who knows, maybe had been like my little bro and sis who never even smoked pot...of course that was probably becaise they watched their brother who could solve a adult cryptogram whole puzzlebook turn into a stoner. I do kick myself though because if I stayed with school I could of got into chemisty, whiic when I graduated, alot of chemicals would have geen easy to get...then EVERYONE woulda been my friend ;)
 
I wasn't particularly anti-drug but I did swear to myself I'd never, ever do anything stronger than weed.
This lasted until about...not even a year before I ended up trying heroin.
Oh the irony.
:D
 
I've always been pro drug really, had always been intrested in drugs especially Cannabis, Oxycodone and Heroin strangely, this was only exasperated by a pain condition.
I said I would never try anything stronger than cannabis and like the poster above after a year of smoking weed I was doing coke,amphetamine, morphine and others.
 
I remember in school we had to read this book about a girl who took one ecstacy tablet and died... I was all "ooo Im NEVER taking ecstacy! It's so dangerous!" But in reality, more people die every year from alcohol than E... damn schools... scaring you with misinformation.
 
anti-drug so far as I knew

I mean with all the misinformation they made it sound like the (any given) drug itself in a small dosage would cause all kinds of horrible effeccts
 
I was first apathetic about drugs. They were of no concern to me. Then I started hearing about drugs around middle school. Mostly from authority figures pushing propaganda. I knew something was up once I was introduced to all the propaganda. It was so biased that I automatically couldn't trust what was coming out of their mouth. I was still not nessicarily pro-drugs, but I was certainly wasn't anti-drugs.

I ended up smoking weed when I was 13 and immediately started to do research on them to learn the truth.

I remember a similar video where the girl dosed 1 tab on her 16th birthday and got water intoxication and died. I've never tried E but I'm pretty sure that doesn't happen very often.

I remember freshman year I ate lunch with these 3 sophomore potheads and the one kid said I look like a stoner. I said" ill never smoke weed. That's lulz now. It went from weed and alcohol by November of that year. Opiates when I moved to delaware. Tries them after my mom got a script of 5s and left em on the table and I tried one. Then I found a connect that year and since sophomore yr of hs it was a wrap lol I got pretty fuck up my jr/sr year and ones every day in 10th grade.
 
Never gave drugs much thought until D.A.R.E., which all that did was make me a little curious about what being "high on drugs" felt like. Didn't really buy into their message. I was only in the 5th grade but it was pretty obvious that they were feeding me a bunch of crap to get something from me that I felt seemed along the lines of "blind commitment" which I was pretty sure was related to religion somehow... so what's the deal that I'm all of a sudden being taught it in school?

Started smoking weed in high school, sometime freshman year. Became interested in psychedelics as soon as a learned of them, around the same time. Didn't get the opportunity until senior year though. I would have labeled myself as pro-drug back then and for a few years after high school. But I'm 26 now and labels like pro-drug and anti-drug just sound stupid. Shit's more complicated than that.
 
all the way up until 7th grade i thought i would never touch drugs. once i got into the 7th grade, i switched schools and people's attitudes about weed began to change. the people i liked to associate with were part of the crowd that was interested and experimented with nuggets, so of course i went along with it. for a while, i would hang around people smoking but never actually smoke (i'd usually lie and say that i was already high), but then i got some weed and a bowl to myself and smoked alone as to not embarrass myself in front of others. as soon as i gained an comfortableness with smoking, i became one of the biggest pot heads in my class.

this quickly progressed to mushrooms, then acid. once i got to college, i started doing cocaine which led to benzos for the comedown. finally, and still i am doing opiates on a regular basis along with weed, and benzos when i can get them.
