No drinking, no smoking, no drugging, and not planning to.
I can find much more productive and fun ways to deal with stress. I do drink caffeine, but not for the caffeine, as it really doesn't have an effect on me. I typically drink Mountain Dew before going to bed at night. And if they made my sodas caffeine free, it wouldn't bother me at all.

I don't like cocaine. I just like the way it smells. (Kidding. Haven't done that for longer than the statute of limitations. I'm like that for most drugs. The rest I take for medical reasons, FDA bedamned.)

Done my share I guess. Grew up and don't seem to have the opportunity to sample drugs much these days - other than booze which is just as much a drug as the coke, pot, speed, shrooms and others I used to use - big difference is booze is legal. Booze can harm you just as much (or worse) than the illegal drugs. It's a sham how our country views pot.

the point of being a smart drug user is not to feel better, but to improve your abilities and intelligence. most people don't agree with this because the only drug users they know are complete idiots

omnigod

Never have Never will.

I had a band in reno once, most the members where intelligent untill they smoked themselves stupid.

Double D

I came of age in the 1970's so-- what would you guess?

Haven't done any of the drugs that became popular since (such as X, crystal meth).

Alcohol is a drug-- very dangerous in that it is legal and so may people blithely ingest it as if it were soda-pop.

Caffeine is a drug. I do exactly one mug of mocha-java coffee per day, in the morning.

I cannot stand self-righteousness.
I've said before, I'll say it now. Everyone has a addiction/vice be it to the Internet or gaming or sex or pr0n or cars...it goes on.

The question to ask about an addiction or drug use is: Does it interfere in a significant negative way with your life, or the life of those around you?

IC3

Nicely Said.

I am talking about Marijuana not any other drugs. I don't see how people can say it's so bad if they have never tried it...I am not saying you should try it either though.

Like Talon said, If you know people that smoke weed and you think they are stupid or whatever...Then there body's must react different to weed. I have said this already, But I know people who smoke Daily and they are fine.

Am I addicted to Marijuana...No. Have I tryed harder drugs...Yes, But I have never done them again after the first time.

I call Marijuana a Relaxent not a Drug...All it does is Relaxe you and Enhances your mind.

sixate

No way! I was dumb enough to drink for a minute. Never got myself involved in the downward spiral called drugs.

badflsh

Nope. Nothing aginst those that do, but as for myslef, I dont see any upside and a lot of potential down sides.

YzermanS19

Well, I figure I might as well post what I have done, as everyone else seems to be doing. Again, I don't recommend drugs to anyone.

My list:
LSD- Done twice, by far the "hardest" drug I have done. Both times were extremely introspective and beneficial. I'd like to spend the next 15 years getting to that "place" without the use of them, but that requires a LOT of mediation. Maybe when I'm a little older.

Psilocybe Mushrooms- Done three times. Probably my favorite drug, but I'll probably never do it again. Just the same feeling about acid. I'd rather spend 15 years meditating to get to that point without the drugs than spending the $30 and doing it again.

Ketamine or Special "K"- Done once. Never do it again. I don't like the lack of control associated with it.

Datura or Jimsonweed- Done once. Never reached the threshold to reach psychedelic states, and don't want to. The stuff dried out all my mucous membranes, and it wasn't worth it.

Salvia Divornium- Done 3 times. Very intesting drug, but not as introspective and revealing as some of the others I have done.

Marajuana- Done countless times, socially only. I never done this stuff once a day, but I have smoked alot.

Alcohol- Done countless times, socially only. This drug is by far the most dangerous of all the drugs I've done. No doubt in my mind about that. Just the way people act when drunk proves that.

Caffiene- The only drug I am addicted to. I get headaches if I dont drink a soda during the day.

As for prescription: Codiene, Vicodin, Oxycontin. Will never do any of these without a prescription. Ever.

My rules about drugs are as follows: I don't do anything highly addicted (heroin, coke, meth, etc), and the ones that I could get addicted to (alcohol), I don't do enough to get to that point of dependency.

Unlike some other users, I have never become "stupid" or "dimwitted" from using drugs (unless on them at the time: alcohol). I do everything in moderation. I still have big ambitions, and still do VERY well in college. I work for a living, and not once have drugs have interfered with me being on time and doing a good job. My social life is great, I have friends from both sides of the table: straight edge and users.

I am probably an exception. I don't deny it.

Am I lucky? No. I went into the mindset of doing them correctly, and I have. Every drug on the list has benefitted me in some way at some time. I dont regret doing them. I don't recommend them to anyone either.

Thank you. It's really weird. I tried my hardest not to freak out when he told me, because he talks to me rarely enough as it is and I knew that if I freaked, it would just shut him down completely from me. I know he smokes a lot of pot, does shrooms and has tried coke (but says he's not interested in it). But what worries me is he once told me he would only smoke pot and never touch anything else. I don't really know where he's at right now, he doesn't volunteer information and we're not close enough where I can ask without it seeming weird. To go into any more discussion on it would probably require a separate thread. But thanks.

Weed and alcohol. I quit smoking cigarettes last week, though I still use a bit of tobacco in my joints for flavor.

The main difference between headache medicine and Migraine medicine, is that one of them has Caffiene. Specifically the Migraine medicine.

Of course, you could also be addicted to the caffiene, and so you get a headache because its your withdrawel symptom.

i wouldn't worry about it to much
booze, pot, shrooms, and even e are all okay for parties and stuff
i'd start to become worried if he was into harder stuff (needles are bad ). the knowledge that he did coke would bother me.

that being said i suppose i should let you know i just finished high school and im exposed to it all the time (go summer!) so i may have a biased opinion

i was smoking almost daily for most of the summer, but had to quit about two weeks ago to get ready for football. ended with an enormous pot/shrooms/everclear/sea kayak binge with some buddies. quitting was hard, but the drugs will always be there, football won't.

i'm not addicted, it hasn't been a gateway, and i quit when i want. where's the beef?

I've only been smoking weed some times. Well.. quite a lot of times. I'm done with it. It's expensive, tastes like s**t and the feeling itself isn't that good.

As for the harder drugs: (cocaine, amphetamines, heroin, E) I've seen what they do to people. I've seen how much they fuck up people's heads and I've seen it enough to never touch that stuff.

I used to drink heavily. Every day. But I quit it and was sober for three months straight and now I drink a glass of wine, a beer or a single whiskey, but I leave it at that.

I know it's none of my bussiness, but you need to get help, dude. I was a child of the 60's. It was a drug free for all for several years with the drugs that were most abused were Herion, Acid (windowpane) and Weed. I lost a few friends to overdosing on the first two. You have done Meth so long now you are in a different reality then most people....the problem is it isn't really you. I recently watched a very good friend of mine go from making 70 grand a year lose his wife, his job, his house and all access to his kids. He then started stealing things from his family and friends to support his crack habit. He was very convincing when he was high, talked me into loaning him some money after he said he was off the stuff. I even bought him some groceries and let him work with me a few days until i realized he was still using and tried to steal from me and use me. He had one of the best lives a person could want and lost it all in a year!
Like I said before, you don't know me and don't owe me a damn thing, man. You DO owe it to the people that love you to get off this shit. Your family already suspect you're using...you are hurting them more than you know. Think about it...if it was your brother or sister doing the shit and you were straight what would you do and how would you feel?

Sorry about the rant, just sick and tired off seeing this kind of thing happen to people I know, seen it too many damn times and it NEVER makes you a better person after it takes hold of your life.

I guess I'm just hoping it's something he goes through and then decides he doesn't need to do it anymore. I was going to say that I figured that maybe 2 or 3 straight years of doing nothing but sitting in a basement (or in the woods) and smoking with his friends would wear old...but my high school friends still come over and we watch TV together night after night, so waht do I know.

The coke thing does bother me. He told me it's easier to get in our town than pot. he said he tried it and wasn't interested but he could see why people did it. I hope that's as far as it went.

jimk

used to do a lot of 'em. have been clean for about 5 months now & i haven't felt this good for a loooooooooooong time.

herb, shrooms, oxycontin(swallowed not snorted!), alchohol, caffeine, Percacet(?)

I will never smoke a Cig. I will never inject. I will never put something up my nose. I might try acid, opium, Salvia later in life.

I don't do drugs to feel better about myself, it just feels really cool to go out on a boat and laugh my ass off with good company and take a relaxing swim sometimes.

(just a side note, I only did those aforementioned painkillers once each and I doubt I will do them a lot in the future because they made my nose itch so bad that I wanted to scratch it off at times!)

No, just beeeer.

Hodapp

I've done just about everything.

smoked so much pot its crazy
tried speed 3 times
ive tried lsd once
tried shrooms once
done coke about 20-30 times
popped many prescription pills
took ecstacy twice
took pcp twice - one time it was sold to me as XTC and another time on laced pot

Ive never tried heroin but i've done oxycontin which is pretty close. I would not recommend to be in my shoes and i've destroyed my body, made myself stupid, lost all my true friends, and got in trouble with the law.

drugs are really bad and ruined my life.

bernadette

today it's just beer/wine, cigs & coffee.

in the past plenty of weed, downers, uppers, some coke, opium once, and sadly a 3 mos flirt with meth once.

ellipsys, that is a horrible drug. i hope you find a way out of that spiralling downward sinkhole very soon. good luck.

I am a pot smoker. Most disc golfers you meet are pot smokers. I am not lazy, I do not sit around all day doing nothing but play videogames, watch TV or other.....I have a full-time career, make good money, pay my bills on time, workout everyday, and am an individual most people wouldn't think smoked pot. I do not recommend it to other people because it is better to go on in life without it....I will eventually quit, but right now, I like to get away from the stress, sit down and relax with a joint or bowl. Typically smoke about 3-4 times a week. I have tried coke once, done Exctasy about a dozen times, done shrooms a few times, but that is about it. I have gone through the experimental phase and don't plan on trying anything else. I am not a drinker either. I don't like the feeling of being drunk or the feeling the morning after. Weed mellows me out for a few hours, then I am back to the normal routine.
