PEJ said:

THANK YOU....this was my point of the thread

Mach said:

I have plans to open a sober living home in the future.

SirPsycho said:

btw I dug your freestyle vid

SirPsycho said:

What was your point?

You were looking for people to share personal experiences as a deterrent of some sort?

PEJ said:

Cool

DanceWme said:

(sorry if im digging too deep) were you close to somebody who got messed up on coke?

JustErin said:

yes...and to start an open discussion, cuz drugs-like sex- are usually left to guesswork since people are afriad of admitting their confusion/weakness/curiousity/etc.

but like i said...the work/kids thing is differnt so i understand

PEJ said:

thanks alot man..

My best friend in elementary school. Her mother was doing it.
Treated her kids like crap. They ended up losing their house and everything they had. Eventually the mother died of an overdose when we were in middle school and my best friend ended up killing herself. What they had to go through was sad.

DanceWme said:

omg...i'm sorry you (and they) had 2 experience that...thank you for sharing tho

Hah, I can safely answer these questions.


a.)What (illegal) drugs have you tried? None

b.)If you did but stopped..what led you to stop? was it an experience, as in bad trip? (consider having stopped meaning 2+ years abstaining from the drug) N/A

c.)If you still partake, what do you consider a misconception of the drug of your choice? (for ex: why it isn't as bad as others claim) N/A

d.)What drugs would you NEVER try? why? All. I'd probably be that one unlucky person that tries something once and dies.

e.)If you've never tried a drug at all....why? I never felt any pressure to try.

f.)How did you start taking drugs? N/A


That was easy. I should run for office.

Hot.

sextonseven said:

to be honest...i envy people like you...

i mean, i dont think weed is the worse thing that ever happened to me...but the unfortunate thing about getting high is you never forget that that feeling exists... but yeah...i hope to be striaght-edge one day...as time goes by it become a very appealing challange

a.)What (illegal) drugs have you tried?
honestly, it's easier to say what I haven't tried...never tried anything involving needles...but other than that, I've tried pretty much evrything...

b.)If you did but stopped..why led you to stop? was it an experience, as in bad trip? (consider having stopped meaning 2+ years abstaining from the drug)
nothing led me to stop anything, I tried a lil' of everything and disliked most of it...the exceptions being weed and lsd...I never liked feeling "jacked up" and I didn't like to feel lethargic...most drugs made me feel one or the other...

c.)If you still partake, what do you consider a misconception of the drug of your choice? (for ex: why it isn't as bad as others claim)
no longer partaking of anything

d.)What drugs would you NEVER try? why?
again, there was no drug that I wouldn't try-back then, I just wouldn't shoot anything up...I never shot herion but I snorted it...

e.)If you've never tried a drug at all....why?

f.)How did you start taking drugs?
I was 21 before I ever tried anything...the rest was history...all my friends smoked weed so I finally gave in and tried it...liked it...wanted to see what else I might like...

a.)What (illegal) drugs have you tried?

None

b.)If you did but stopped..why led you to stop? was it an experience, as in bad trip? (consider having stopped meaning 2+ years abstaining from the drug)

N/A

c.)If you still partake, what do you consider a misconception of the drug of your choice? (for ex: why it isn't as bad as others claim)

N/A

d.)What drugs would you NEVER try? why?

All.

e.)If you've never tried a drug at all....why?

Alcohol is a drug.

f.)How did you start taking drugs?

N/A

SirPsycho said:

He's lying.

SirPsycho said:

That's a good point that I should have included in my answer--that I hear how addictive drugs can be and that's a deterrent to trying them even just once. That's also why I've never smoked cigarettes and never had a cup of coffee (although I do know what coffee tastes like).

what u puttin in yo' nose?
is that where all your money goes?
the river of addiction flows...
..u think it's hot
but there won't be no water...
WHEN THE FIRE BLOWS!
Dig, it.

thought it was appropriate to the thread...

let me give my "drug story"...I would be a liar if I said that I didn't have a blast getting high...I would be a liar if I said that having that blast couldn't have killed me...I spent 2 years of my life living in a drug induced blur...I can tell you most of the stuff that happened in those 2 years but I'd be hard pressed to tell you in what order they happened...I thought I was in total control...always had a job...never stole to support my habits...but when it came down to it, my drug use defined me...I was the party guy...nobody gave a fuck about me unless I was providing a good time...I pretty much separated myself from my true friends and chose to be surrounded by folks that were doing the same things I was...finally, my best friend stepped in and talked to me about what he saw...I thought he was a real asshole but I also realized everything he said was true...

I've seen folks periodically dabble with drugs and be fine...I've seen folks that can't control the craving and totally lose sight of what is real...I think the real danger in any drug is that you never know how you're gonna feel about it after you try it...drugs are funny that way, they can make you feel great and destroy you at the same time...even something as simple as weed has destroyed peoples lives..I'm not saying folks should or should not do drugs...but there are inherit dangers with any of them and to ignore that is stupid and could be deadly...

it is

the sun set in my heart this afternoon
for two friends of mine got stuck in the snow
in uptown winters alarmin
cocaine becomes charmin
but you talk about things you don't know
no matter whatever you past was
green and white will turn to blue
your happy as long as your last buzz
then you think you want somethin new

...he never should have re-written that song

SirPsycho said:

Fuck 'em!

I tried weed when I was in highschool, did not like it much but I was stupid and gave in to peer pressure. I gave that up fast, I was always hungry and not interested in gaining any weight. I have never tried anything else and I do not want to. My only buzz ever comes from an occasional or two and good sex with my husband.

a.)What (illegal) drugs have you tried?
Pot
Cocaine
LSD
Mushrooms
2CB
Extasy
Special K
Crystal
Opium
Hash

b.)If you did but stopped..why led you to stop? was it an experience, as in bad trip? (consider having stopped meaning 2+ years abstaining from the drug)
Still smoke Pot. Will partake with LSD on occasion. Rarely though it comes about...Cocaine.

c.)If you still partake, what do you consider a misconception of the drug of your choice? (for ex: why it isn't as bad as others claim)
Drug of Choice? Well Pot would be that, but I don't consider it to be a drug. Huge Misconceptions about Pot. I could list them, but what's the point. It's is a lot safer than drinking Alcohol IMO.

d.)What drugs would you NEVER try? why?
Heroin. I heard that you can be addicted very quickly and I am not sure I'd like the experience. Not good with needles either. I would never freebase or do PCP. I think a lot of experimenting is way out of my system

f.)How did you start taking drugs?
Around Friends.

I do need to add my motto...

Everything in Moderation...key word...EVERYTHING.

I'm with You on that one.

RodeoSchro said:

No you cannot be prosecuted for prior drug use. You have to be caught with it on you for it to be illegal. I don't even think they can prosecute you if you are ON drugs either.
