why do you do drugs?

At first my Heroin use was recreational(smoking), but now Im flat out addicted(IV). Iv had some weeks being clean, but its a constant strugle to not do it when Im clean for any length of time.
 
^ Agreed, alcohol consistently makes me feel like utter shite, whereas my drugs of choice give me little to no trouble on the comedown.
 
Why i use drugs, at this point in my life I feel the positives outway the negatives with certain things. Different drugs for different things.


Psychedelics - Theese three did a good job explaining why.
spiritual exploration and growth
creativity and seeking out beauty
bonding with friends/social value


Amphetamine - To get shit done/ fun

Opioids - to kill pain/ relax

Benzodiazepines - help anxiety/ sleep
 
I used to ask myself this question - I don't anymore. IMO it's a stupid question with an equally stupid answer ("because I do"), not to mention it's nothing but a worry or guilt trip. Not that it's the wrong question for others, just not here.

that pretty much wrapes it up :p
other than that though, drugs are straight up FUN and make me FEEL GOOOOOD. they help kill the aweful boredom assosiated with school too
 
For the same reason I use birth control pills - I get better outcomes from certain events using the tools man has invented than I would if I didn't use any tools.
 
well when i started using it was because i was a young angry teen and wanted to rebel i think. now its about 70% to get fucked up and have a good time 30% to escape the other crap from life....this figures get smaller or larger depending on how much other crap there is at the time..
 
Alcohol because it's fun in a social environment. However I don't like it as much as I used to do. It makes you stupid, makes you do stupid things and induces a hangover.
Cannabis because it's quite cheap, easy to get hands of and the strong sativa I have now is kind of psychedelic. It's an easy way to "feel different" as it only lasts a short time and it's still quite possible to perform in social situations, in contradictions to "heavy psychedelics".
Other psychedelics (mushrooms, lsd, etc) I use to expand my limited ways of seeing the world; emotionally, visually, intellectually. I'm usually a very stable person, with little heights or lows in his life. Psychedelics allow me to change that in an interesting way.
I'm not interested in stuff like coke or heroin. Well, I might be interested in them, but I don't like the purely hedonistic viewpoint of most of the users and the tremendous risk of addiction. I'm afraid I might like it too much.
 
I started out of curiosity. I don't like uppers at all besides MDMA, so those went out of the picture quick. But pot, downers, and psychedelics I love.. Pot and downers just make life more enjoyable, especially on a down day. Benzos actually even help me be more sociable and enjoy myself more around people. Psychedelics have changed my soul in the greatest way, and I love them :).

I need to hit the deemsters again soon, maybe I will today :) --- a bit sloshed on xanax bars and lortabs and pot right now though... hehe, and it's only 10 am. Morning high is always the best. As a matter of fact, Waking up and immediately getting really high is one of my favorite feelings, it makes the morning and day so beautiful feeling :)
 
Different drugs have different uses, for me at least.

Psychedelics have profoundly enhanced my cognitive abilities, my capacity for empathic understanding and opened my eyes to spirituality. They also helped me work through my depression/anxiety, which I am now free of.

Cannabis for recreation, medicinal uses and psychedelic effects.

Opiates to numb out the world and "turn off"

Benzos/Alcohol for relaxation

When I used cocaine it was for staying awake longer while drinking.

I started using drugs in general because I was curious about consciousness and the biochemistry of the "highs." I consider myself an "inner space explorer."
 
boredom, beauty, making some things bearable, fun, and adventure.
 
There are many different reasons. I've been doing a lot of pills lately because I don't have the money or insurance to go see a dentist and I'm having teeth problems. But I also do them just to have fun and get chilled, to help me get to sleep. But a really big reason lately is just to get through work, lol. I'm not kidding though. I just got promoted and have a lot more responsibilities and I bust my ass, but I seem to always do a better job with I got opiates in me.
 
I hate how easily 90% of people seem to automatically think "If you do drugs, it's because you're very unhappy about your life / there's something fundamentally wrong at the root of all this / you have many unresolved issues you need to take care of / any other psychology bullshit." I mean, damn, it's like some people can't understand you can be (relatively, in my case) happy about your life, yet still do drugs.

I mean, honestly, the main reason I do drugs is just because they make me feel good, better than any state of consciousness you can achieve sober. I've heard so many times shit like "It's sad you can't achieve that level of happiness without drugs." (fuck, I just heard it today when someone told me they would never take MDMA because they can feel just as happy without any chemical assistance or some shit like that).

I don't do drugs to "escape" from any problems in my life, I don't do drugs because I am depressed or unhappy, I just do drugs because they make me feel damn good.
Better than almost anything I could ever feel while sober.
