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.

yes numbness is wayyyyyyyy better i agree 100%...i told my mother that when she asked me why i do it...and i said id rather sleep through life than deal with it.
 
I started abusing opiates to deal with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder(PTSD).
Except for that damn addiction thing, opiates work far better than the anti depressants doctors tried me on.

yeah in the US in the last 10 years its been;

h, dope, ron, jabs (for a specific amount), raw (for the real pure), bun (for bundles or 10 bags) brick (50 bags), stamp (stamped bag 0.05-0.2 weight usually w/ some logo).

And between my friends we usually say leronski. I started it one day and it stuck.
 
Interesting thread.
Cannabis: started out of curiosity. I continued out of social ritual. Stopped when I stopped enjoying it.
MDMA: Curiosity and continued due to absolute astonishment at the life-changing impact it had on me. Stopped after two years of heavy abuse due to crippling anxiety.
Amphetamine: Started when my tolerance to MDMA became too high and I couldn't afford to take it anymore.
Ketamine: Started as a fascinating accompaniment to MDMA. Became a habitual self-medication for general depression. Continues to present a problem.
Diazepam: Started as self-medication for anxiety and to ease the stimulant buzz/calm the ketamine trips.
Temazepam: Started to ease the transition from stimulants to sobriety and, sometimes, to promote sleep in periods of insomnia.

I notice a few people have said things like "it keeps me sane". It seems to be common amongst people that have problems with dealing with their own minds and reality to use the type of drugs that take the user to an alternative psychological state. Even though many of my ketamine experiences have been quite horrendous and dark, I still prefer that place because it's a break from reality. Purely speculation, but a valid observation, I think.
 
Why? For very unoriginal reasons.

Firstly because being in pain and unable to sleep for months on end just wasnt something I could manage. I think a good portion of BLers start because of pain management. But it's hard not to notice the pleasure that comes with.

I hate alcohol and the idea of getting drunk so I could sleep made me consider drugs. I lived pretty straight laced all my life but the nerve pain, well desperate people find it easy to re-evaluate their morals.

As a side benefit I've had the best sex in my life while high. Sex is great and sex while high is religious!

So I started doing drugs out of necessity and while I still get high so I can sleep, I also take drugs because they are damned enjoyable. I dont have to get high every night so I can sleep and on those nights I usually dont. But I like having the choice to use and sometimes I just like to get high with the wife and fuck our brains out. Getting high helps liven things up in the bed room after 2 decades of marriage. She even mentioned to me not long ago that if she was high enough she'd consider inviting someone for a 3some. Drugs... I love you! 8o

I stick to the legal highs cause getting fired over a drug test would suck. Read that there are legal issues with JWH so I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. I have several grams and we dont really use a lot so I have probably 6 months to watch what happens. Honestly even if the JWH's are scheduled, I'm not sure they will make it into the drug tests anytime soon if ever.

At this point I'd really like to try some of the illegal drugs. Curious George syndrome. Hehe. I'm the bread winner in the family and my responsibility far far outweighs my curiosity though, unfortunately. :)

I fear getting arrested or failing a drug test. Either would destroy what I've worked really hard for. I like to think the precautions I take will keep me far away from that. Life is a crap shoot so who knows. I could drop the drugs tomorrow but my quality of life would suffer.
 
I take drugs first and foremost because I enjoy them. It has been a passion of mine for going on 10 years now.

Psychedelic have been the most beneficial to me by far, helping shape my very beliefs. Through DMT I found some kind of god. I learned to question the human experience, which is a hard thing to do without the perspective that psychedelics have to offer.

Empathogens (or entactogens) have helped me realize that the most important things in life are the connections I have with others. Empathogens have been an amazing tool for analyzing myself, strengthening my relationships with people and having some of the most memorable experiences of my life.

Stimulants have been a valuable study aid. I graduated from college last year and am planning on going to law school next year, thanks in large part to stimulants.

Weed defined my high school years, for better or for worse. I still smoke pretty regularly, but not like I used to - going through 1/4 to 1/2 ounce a week in my prime. I enjoy weed, but I wouldn't call it a valuable tool.

Opiates are another drug I enjoy but do not use as a tool - aside from easing comedowns or relieving headaches. I love opiates, and am lucky that I haven't been addicted to them.

Two drugs that I'd like to try but plan on staying away from are heroin and meth. I have seen too many people I know succumb to these two. No matter how responsible I try to be with my use, I realize there are inherent risks with drug use - specifically addiction. Trying these two drugs would increase that risk, no matter how responsibly I go about using them. The same goes with injecting. I have never injected drugs, and do not plan on starting.

I see drugs as a tool. Like other tools, you must work in order to benefit from their use.
 
i love the feeling!

i have a love/hate relationship with drugs.

but i always tell people, drugs saved my life...if it weren't for drugs and alcohol, i would of been dead a long time ago.
 
Different drugs for different reasons. I don't do a whole lot of drugs anymore outside my suboxone. I drink like once in a blue moon and that's about it. I drink sometimes when I'm at a party or something, just to loosen up and get a bit more sociable. I used to smoke weed because it was fun, and didn't fuck me up so bad that i could still actually get shit done. I did opiates because it felt fucking great and to escape from all my troubles/problems. A good hit of H or a couple percocets would always make me just not care anymore.
 
I take drugs to keep my mind and body confused, so I cannot focus on my pain. It's two different sides of me. When i'm in pain, all I can focus on is that and this overwhelming urge to die, but when there's no pain, i'm a beautiful person who is so alive and full of love for everything. I wish I could be that all the time. :(
 
I hate being asked this it's so fucking pointless.

Why do i use drugs? Many reasons.

Pain relief.
Anxiety Relief.
Inducing a state of euphoria.
Introspection.
Because i'm physically addicted to them.
Because i'm psychologically addicted to them.
I like getting high.
To enhance other enjoyable activities....

Mostly i just like to get my neurons firing or not firing for that matter.
 
Because I'm lonely/anti-social, insecure, pretty damn intelligent, and I had a really messed up childhood.

I keep on though, to be sure
 
My main reason is that sober people have one viewpoint on life...yes it can vary due to mood/setting/etc but that is all they got. When I do a chemical that alters the state of mind(not fucks you up) I gain perspective and get solutions to just about every problem. I've been sober before and know all about that game and how it ends. With drugs everyday is new and I can start my day off making new imprints :)
