⭐️ Social ⭐️ Why you're deciding to get into drugs?

A lot of my friends were doing drugs and they seemed to be having a really good time so I was curious and wanted to try them too.
 
i started because i wanted 2 break away from society and c what a trip was actually like, just a cuirous lil beaver
 
**What has prompted you to become curious about the world of drugs? Has it come out of the friendships you have? Is it a function of the specific "scene" you're into right now (be it the rave, house, hip-hop, goth, etc.)? Maybe you have you decided to look into drugs maybe for more spiritual reasons?**


To be completely honest, I never really planned on taking drugs...it all just started when i was about 14...I started drinking, did that heavily for about 2 years, got into pot from about 16-18 really heavily, then just wanted to try ecstasy bcos every1 was on about it, curiousity i guess.....then got into speed, coke, and all the mainstream widely available stimulants......recently got really pissed off with e bcos its lost its magic completely and just not worth the horrible comedowns/depression/depersonalisation....did it too heavily.....now i'm happy just drinking alcohol, occasional bit of pot, and an interest in psychadelics after i tried morning glory seeds,..........ive never been attached to any 'scene' or subculture, it just happened. I guess it's just the small city i live in.... Fuck all to do, not really much oppurtunity, so all you can really do is drugs to be perfectly honest....it sux in a way, but ive met sum AMAZING ppl thru using e, so ive definately gained more than ive lost......
What I'm saying basically is that i cant really explain how I got into drugs. It's just this country (england). the drug culture is depressingly large.
Ive always been a bit weird, bit rebellious. It's nothing to do with subcultures, spirituality, scenes or anything......Just how boring and crap this society is....and thats the honest truth....A 9-5 job, fuck all oppurtunity...it gets to you. Need a break from the shit reality sumtimes, and drugs are temporary solution, and a fucking good laugh if u can control it :)

The mind is a mysterious thing, and I wanted to experiment with substances that would help me see sides of it that I normally wouldnt in order to perhaps better understand it. All in all, I can say that I recieved a bit of insight so far :D
 
I was always pro-drugs at high school. But all my friends were nerds, and against drugs, so I didn't know where to get any. When I turned 19, I smoked marijuana for the first time. Then I tried E. I abused E & speed for awhile (about 2 years), then decided to quit. I think that my experience taking E has definitely been positive. I used to be very depressed all the time. After analysing myself on drugs, I discovered that I was the same beautiful person even when I was straight! I make an effort to always be the same open honest person I am when I am on drugs. But I have no interest in taking those drugs again. I think they are an illusion. But maybe I never would have found out about myself if I hadn't taken them, or my progress wouldn't have been as quick. I don't think it would be a good idea to try to expand your mind before you are strong within yourself.
The reason I am now in Drug Basics is because I am thinking of taking mushrooms. It is time to expand my mind. Anyhow, I'm totally for drugs in moderation. But I know many people who are going to stay abusers for life.
 
I think the Beatles may get another vote.
Or Morrison. I just wanted to know why his pupils were always soooo big.
=D
 
thanks weed

Well i was a ninth grader in high school riding the bus to a soccer game. My friend jake passed me a bag of weed and apipe made out of a metal blue pen. I went home ater the victory and loaded a bowl. I took a big hit and my heart started racing and my mind wandered away. Thats where it all started.

Weed got boring so i stopped doing it so often and started with the hard shit. Im glad i did.

A touching story eh?
 
I grew up around a family which was anti-drug, pretty much anti-everything bad. I got into drugs my sophmore year slowly( starting with marijuana), and then over the years just trying harder and harder stuff. I started it because of the friends I hung around with, thats a big influence. Now I do them for an escape from reality, something for fun.
 
i was never ever agains drugs. as a little kid when i first heard that drugs exist, i felt overwhelming curiosity and nothing else. i've been into classic rock since i was maybe 5-6 years old and all my fav rock stars did drugs and wrote songs about drugs, so i always though that drugs were really cool and i had to try as many of them as possible
 
Until I was 18 I was only ever exposed to drugs once (my big bro arrived home and woke me up-on mushies and thought he was gonna swallow his tongue and die so he put a clothes peg onto it so he could hold his tongue-hilarious). Went to Tramps ball in good ol' henrys and was spiked! Ive never looked back. 8( I was never really against dugs- didnt know ne1 who did them so wouldnt have known where to get ne-how sweet and innocent I was(actually most people are SHOCKED when they find out I use).
 
i wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Just a little note i first got high aged 10 on vodka, smoked hash aged 11, been getting high ever since
 
I started smoking pot everyday to make up for all the holes in my life...I got high in highschool, but i didn't become a weed addict until college. i got depressed, and pot took my mind off all my problems.

it still does.
 
Been doing for a while, so I'm not really qualified to answer this. But in retrospect, it was probably curiosity more than anything else. I had friends and a sister who did it regularly, and I was around them a lot when they were stoned. And I realised that it didn't do much harm. They looked a hell lot worse when they were drunk, and a hell lot more bothersome too. Pot seemed to have a dull, calming and relaxing effect. We just used to play cards and listen to music. Then we'd eat. They'd eat a lot. Hehe. Didn't understand why until I began smoking myself... =D

Anyway, the point is that the more i saw it the more curious i got and i really wanted to try it. Wasn't difficult because I had been smoking cigarettes for a number of years already. And thus began my love affair with maryjane.


Cheers.

Well… I tore the C3-C4 disc in my spine at 11. I had my first Vicodin then. It escalated, more and more spinal issues began to crop up, so more and more meds were given. By 14 I was taking 2 20mg OxyContin ER pills a day, plus 20mg Percocets for “breakthrough” pain. But I started abusing them around this time. At 15, I started using heroin. I was drinking, popping pills, shooting heroin, and doing LSD with my boyfriend. I stopped for a few years, and I’ve started using coke and heroin again due to dealing with some other shit in my life. Sooo…. Yeah.
 
I waited till age 40 to try anything illegal.

Did loads of alcohol...and still do.

Never smoked
 
I read one of the older editions (no, the newer ones are NOT the same) of "From Chocolate To Morphine" by Andrew Weil, M.D. when I was 13 and found a new hobby.
 
This has been a great thread for many years but the topic is now more suited to the Drug Culture sub-forum…so I’ve relocated it.
