Three memories come to mind...
One at about six, my mum was driving me and my sister home from school, and we saw some teenage girls smoking by the shops. She said, "See them? When they were your age, they probably promised their parents they'd never smoke, too." I had this unsettling thought that being a teenager might change me in horrible ways and I'd end up smoking too. But partly, I felt like I was resistant enough to peer pressure to avoid it.

At eleven, for a class project, I wrote a letter to myself in the future. I never received the letter, but I the one thing I remember is, "I hope you're not doing drugs." Back then, we were taught drugs are horrible things that only screw you up and the only reason you'd do them is peer pressure.

At sixteen, I was on a school camp that was basically anti-drug indoctrination. By then, I was laughing at every blatant bit of propaganda they shoved in our faces, and astounded that all my alcoholic classmates were buying into it.

:D And now I'm almost 21 and researching every psychadelic under the sun and moon. And just like younger me thought, I'm immune to peer pressure after all. SO immune that I'm doing drugs!

Haha, good fun. And so ironic. They were getting alcohol and cigarrettes found and confiscated all over the place, then the next day we'd all wake up and watch anti-drug films and they'd sit there going, "Oooh, wow, I'm never gonna do marijuana, that shit's hardcore." 8)

In previous anti-drug talks at school, I'd pointedly said to the guy sitting next to me that they were making half this stuff up. He gave me a very concerned look and said, "But [pot] gives you schitzophrenia!" Well I guess it might, but beer kills your liver, and yet they're still advertising it fucking everywhere, dude. Uurgh.
 
If i died tomorow i could honestly say ive had my fun and a fucken good innings..life has so many ups and and downs you never know whats around the corner. Sure,think big and have ambition..but as long as your happy w the person you are and have become as a result of your lifes path,then accept it and enjoy..the shit things in life is what builds character..You only go around once,grab everything you can.
 
I usually can't expect what will happen in more then a few hours...but damnit, at 24, I could write of more adventure then 95% of 55 year olds.

So let it carry, I will not go softly into the night.
 
It saddens me to see people falling for the drug propaganda, if they knew everything and chose not to use drugs at least they would have good reason for it. I don't know how many times I've tried to explain the real dangers of ecstasy, or mushrooms, to no avail. I agree with most of you though, i may be young and have much much more to experience in life but i don't regret trying drugs, whether or not it has changed me for better or worse, i enjoy and will hopefully continue to enjoy the times i have with them.
 
I used to think that mdma was as bad if not worse than meth. >.< And that LSD would make you go batshit insane. I seem to be doing okay though.. hear voices sometimes, but I just tell em to shut the fuck up and they usually go away so it's no big deal. =D
my life changed, in a way I got smarter after doing drugs and grew up instead of being a little baby and crying about everything and acting immature. Changed my outlook on life I guess. The last year has been hell for me though, the year with the most change. I've cycled through all my old friends by now... i's a lot different than I used to be :/
 
everyday i get upset that my dead grandma is watching over me now and has to see the person i have become

i'm glad i went through addictions and made it out alive though, so many people don't, so many friends have died. no regrets except missin' out on my relationship with my mother
