why do you take drugs? im just wondering other people's opinions... :)

I'm curious ,for one. I also like the way certain drugs make me feel. I like knowing that I can come home after a long day and chill the fuck out with whatever it is I am in the mood for.
 
Visualizin the realism of life and actuality
Fuck who's the baddest a person's status depends on salary
And my mentality is, money orientated
I'm destined to live the dream for all my peeps who never made it
cause yeah, we were beginners in the hood as five percenters
But somethin must of got in us cause all of us turned to sinners
Now some, restin in peace and some are sittin in San Quentin
Others such as myself are tryin to carry on tradition
Keepin the schwepervesence street ghetto essence inside us
Cause it provides us with the proper insight to guide us
Even though, we know somehow we all gotta go
but as long as we leavin thievin we'll be leavin with some kind of dough
so, and to that day we expire and turn to vapors
me and my capers-ll be somewhere stackin plenty papers
Keepin it real, packin steel, gettin high
Cause life's a bitch and then you die

Life's a bitch and then you die; that's why we get high
Cause you never know when you're gonna go
Life's a bitch and then you die; that's why we puff lye
Cause you never know when you're gonna go
Life's a bitch and then you die; that's why we get high
Cause you never know when you're gonna go
Life's a bitch and then you die; that's why we puff lye

Cause you never know when you're gonna go
Life's a bitch and then you die

I woke up early on my born day, I'm twenty years of blessing
The essence of adolescent leaves my body now I'm fresh in
My physical frame is celebrated cause I made it
One quarter through life some God-ly like thing created
Got rhymes 365 days annual plus some
Load up the mic and bust one, cuss while I puffs from
my skull cause it's pain in my brain vein money maintain
Don't go against the grain simple and plain
When I was young at this I used to do my thing hard
Droppin foreigners take they wallets they jewels and rip they green cards
Dipped to the projects flashin my quick cash
and got my first piece of ass smokin blunts with hash
Now it's all about cash in abundance, niggaz I used to run with
is rich or doin years in the hundreds
I switched my motto -- instead of sayin fuck tommorrow
That buck that bought a bottle could've struck the lotto
Once I stood on the block, loose cracks produce stacks
I cooked up and cut small pieces to get my loot back
Time is Illmatic keep static like wool fabric
Pack a four-matic that crack your whole CABBAGE

I take drugs because I genuinely love the way they make me feel. My DOC is heroin, and I love everything about it, except for the withdrawals of course :P. It gives me confidence, energy, and a blissful euphoria that I cannot replicate with anything else.
 
For reasons likely both genetic and environmental, I appear to have a low hedonic set-point and so drugs give me a temporary escape.

And general psychonautical pursuits--I like having a new perspective on things. You know, like finding unattractive girls attractive with the aid of ethanol.

I'm also dangerously fascinated with attaining the highest state of ineffable bliss possible despite the fact that such a state will be very temporary. Luckily I've been cautious in my endeavors.
 
This is an easy answer. To get high. I don't take any hard drugs because it's not the same with weed. With weed you go on a spiritual journey everytime I smoke which is always a good thing.

I miss smoking pot. I haven't smoked since January 20, 2009. Was a pretty regular user until that time, since summer 2004.

I was one of those responsible users. I enjoyed it very much. It made me feel good and helped to unwind after a hard day at work. As you said, it also promoted some serious philosophical thoughts.

I quit smoking after we found out my fiancee was a couple of months pregnant. Our daughter will be a year old this month! <3 I quit to find better work. And I did, but recently lost the job due to lay offs. Will we ever smoke pot again? Likely. It may be a little while, though. I really do want to smoke again in the future. Obviously wouldn't smoke with our child around as that is very irresponsible. We would likely do so when she isn't around or sleeping. My parents smoked bud when I was a child and they did so responsibly. My dad worked his ass off to provide for us and I was a happy child. Goes to show you can be responsible with marijuana and also be successful.

Anyway, I use drugs for various reasons. I only use tramadol to be honest with you. Use it daily. As it is great for my chronic pain and it really makes me feel great. Better than even the strong opioids. Even better than morphine. Tramadol gives me a wonderful, empathetic, clear-headed euphoria.
 
Same as most people have said, I take drugs because I like feeling fucked and I also find them really interesting.
 
To get HER off my mind! j/k, kinda.

I don't know, it's like life by itself isn't good enough for me, I need to alter it in some way to feel satisfied. I really love the euphoria and feeling of complete contentedness that I get from opiates.

I like rx amphetamines for work, I think it's much easier to get things done in an efficient enthusiastic way when I have some adderall or something.

Weed used to be my thing, I used to use drugs for more spiritual reasons, I still use them to aid in creativity but often use them just to deal with the stress of everyday life. I've never been content to be sober all the time, I'm not sure if I'm envious of the people who are. I like to live in an altered state.
 
Depends on the drug...


Alcohol: to dull depression, or to escape reality by drinking myself into oblivion!

Dex-amphetamine: to stop me craving meth, and to help me function normally.

Diazepam: to taper off benzos (which were prescribed to me 7 years ago for anxiety, but I'm now hopelessly dependent).

Ecstasy: to make parties and social events more fun.

Marijuana: to relax and chill out.

Nicotine: simply because I'm addicted to it.

Opiates (mostly codeine and morphine): for pain, and sometimes also to "escape".
 
To self-medicate anxiety/depression and the fatigue, physical pain and low self-esteem that comes along with it. (Counseling + antidepressants = useless for me)

To "let loose" and have fun (others drink, I do drugs).

To enhance experiences that are already great.

To stem the tedium of sober reality.

To enhance creativity.

To explore my "spiritual" nature.

To enjoy novel experiences.

As a reward and motivation for working and making money (money's not enough of a reward for me).

To live life to the fullest and enjoy my youth.

...and anything else along those lines. I rarely take drugs "to get fucked up" and almost never lose my sensibilities under the influence. Everything in low doses is my motto :D
 
Depends on the drug.

But mostly it is because it's fun and you get to try something special that you will remember.

But weed can also be used to kill the boredom that exist in my life.
 
any n all drugs i use (mainly opiates) is because i love the feeling n helps to numb the emotional n physical pain. atm i jus cant deal with reality..then again ive never been able 2!
 
I take them because they fascinate me. I like how I am different on them, and how they make me think differently.

But people in my town seem to only take them to be ahead of everyone else. They take them because they want to brag about all that they have done. And to them you aren't cool if you haven't been fucked up on ten different things at once. It's really sad. I feel like I'm caught in the middle of a drug race. Everyone I know keeps stepping up to the next level, just to be ahead of the person behind them. They are taking them for bragging rights, and to seem they are more experienced than you.

I personally don't have a problem with drugs, I do them, but I don't brag about doing them (not saying anyone here is bragging, I'm just talking about the people I know/people in my town).

They are fun, and the memories from them are fun to think back and laugh at (considering you had a good trip :))

So all in all, I'm young and I want to explore different perspectives and feelings, because in the future I would regret not trying them. I'd rather want to know what drugs feel like, than continue to wonder the rest of my life.
