I couldn't have put it any better. Not to come off sounding like a real dork, but I remember when I was in junior high/high school, the "big thing" was that one of the convenience stores still sold Jolt Cola ("all the sugar, twice the caffeine"). All my friends said that they would drink one when they were up studying for a test or writing a paper and just couldn't make it through on their own. So I bought a bottle to keep around in case I ever needed it. That was 15 years ago and the bottle is still on the shelf at my parents' house. It relates to the way I feel about drugs. I've never needed anything supplemental (not including chocolate or sushi) to get me out of a bad situation so I see no need to start now.
That being said, I would possibly try pot - I just hate actually smoking anything, so maybe it's brownie time for me. I'd try it because I have done a lot of reading up on marijuana and its effects and I believe it is probably the best/safest drug out of the bunch, much better for you than alcohol - but again, so far, the "urge" hasn't hit me.
My younger brother does a lot of drugs and it freaks me out.
