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

why did you start taking drugs?

just a quick question...always been curious about this. what made you start taking drugs? was there a certain event? injury? curiosity?

i started doing pills in 07. i got a script from my doctor for severe breast pain, i found one lump and that turned into 4 lumps, those turned into 8 lumps and so on until my boobs are nothing but "lumps". they thought it was cancer but thank god it hasnt shown to be so far. also at the time i had just seperated from my husband, which is a long story, short version is, got married, moved away for military, left him after being abused and BAM started taking pills. originally i took them to help the pain in my breasts (still do) but i wonder if my escalation in use coincides with the trauma of a seperation and ultimate divorce? i believe it has alot to do with it.

what reasons do you have?
 
I started last year. My SO of 2 years had done drugs in the past, but had quit for personal reasons. His brother, who became a quick friend, had been really into partying, but had slowed down. I listened to all of their fond stories of their crazier days, and a year later their 60 year old mother got me to try some weed. I'm still quite new, and have only tried a few things. My favorite so far is K. :)

I'm extremely grateful to have come across people who know what their doing when it comes to doses and being responsible. So far, most of my experiences have been extremely positive, and all have been eye opening.
 
I started drinking wine at family occasional as a young child because I have Italian family members and alcohol is viewed differently in southern Europe compared to stuffy English and American culturs with puritan philosophical roots. Italian youth are often allowed small amounts of alcohol at dinner occasions. I am only 1/4 Italian.

I started smoking marijuana at the age of 13 because it was the right thing to do. I feel like its good for my karma, body and mind.

Ive been using opiates for pain. I dont abuse them. I am really in pain unfortunately. I wish I was only using them recreationally.
 
I found some weed in my parents closet. I went to school the next day and asked my friend to check his parents room when he got a chance...that night, he came over with some of the weed HE found...and we both thought....okay, if everyone's saying this is wrong, why do our parents have it and seem to be doing just fine?
 
I can't really remember, probably mainly cause it helped me be social and meet people. I became an addict because it kept the emo thoughts away and now I don't fucking know why I do them, being sober is so much better.
 
I often just blame it on that potent combination of curiousity and boredom, but plenty of people are bored and curious and don't regularly take drugs. With the exception of alcohol and occasionally pot, drugs have never been a social thing for me. The large majority of my friends don't do drugs - hell, a lot of them don't even drink - and most of them are totally unaware that I do anything other than pot and alcohol, and I've always been scary good at hiding it. Part of it is that I've always been a bit emotionally unstable, and drugs help compensate for that. Opiates, pot, and alcohol numb and/or bring me up to baseline, K and DXM dissociate me, and psychedelics appeal more to curiousity and thirst for new and different experiences that sparked a lot of my drug use. Eh, but what the fuck do I know.
 
I found some ritalin when I was 14 and I had seen on the news in the 90s that kids were snorting ritalin to get high. Of course I tried it.
 
my bf has been an active IV heroin user for about 10 yrs. ive always known him.. but about a year and a half into dating each other i was so curious about his love for it i had to try it...i tried it alone and did it myself with no help and fell in love right away. i had dabbled in everything under the sun bc of boredom, curiousity, & social togetherness. but heroin is my lover that i cant cut ties with ..not yet anyway

everyone I know who refers to dope is talking about heroin.

But if its a parent or someone who isn't in the drug culture I find they are usually referring to marijuana when they say dope.
 
I suppose it was just curiosity in the beginning, an interest in alteration of consciousness.
Eventually I became the typical junkie. Bad road.
 
My friends smoked pot. I thought, hey this is a drug that I hear does nothing but good things for you. I will smoke it too!

I have ADD. Its not a big problem, but getting fun drugs for it, fuck yeah, why not? Plus my grades went way the fuck up.

Benzos, they're good for sleep and they're awesome for taking away anxiety. I have a feeling I will get addicted to them.

Opiates, warm and fuzzy. They're great for pain and awesome for just chillin' and relaxin'.

Honestly? I pop some pills because I deal with too much bullshit in my life. Plain & simple. The euphoric/numb feeling I get makes it easier to deal with it all.
