OT: Drugs....

Atrocities · #1 November 28th, 2004, 04:42 AM

I never felt the need to take drugs in my life. I like some pain killers, but find even those effect me in ways that I do not like. I think it best to say that I like to be able to think for myself and not have drugs do it for me.

However I have seen many good friends and realatives destroyed by a drug habit. I lost my GF a few years ago to it as well.

If alcohol counts, then yes, I have done recreational drugs, yes, I still take, and I only regretted once (when I drank vodka with a few Russians, and we all proceeded to vomit afterwards).

If not, then the only time I took a drug for non-medicinal purposes was some codine after a particularly rough night staying up with a friend of mine. After that, I was physically, mentally, and emotionally drained, but I couldn't sleep. I knew another one of my friends had some perscription narcotics from... I don't even remember what. I asked if I could have some, and took about one and a half doses of codeine. When I woke up (sixteen hours later), I felt a little better, and I was back to "normal" a few more hours after that.

Other than that, haven't touched the stuff.

I guess food would be my drug.

Just as deadly when abused and far more costly in the long long run.

See my sig for the drug I'm addicted to.

I only answered Question 1.. No (Question 2 is a trick question kind of like "Have you stoped beating your wife?" if you andwer yes it implies you 'did' and if you anwser no it implies you are 'still'. A no win situation)

Anyway, I never felt the need or curiosity to try drugs. As for addictions, can't seem to stay away from my computer and I often feel 'compelled' to eat.

Cheers!

Did some stupid things on this subject 10 to 12 years ago.
I never came in (financial)problems or became (really) addicted, but I know now that it was more luck than wisdom.

But I can not say that I regret it, I see it as an sort of learning period. And I really know what I'm talking about right now. (not the ussual stuff : if you use it a few times you are addicted, or all Users are junks and will steal your car radio etc etc.........

)

I must also mention that our (the Dutch) perception of drugs is completly different than the American way....

So I think I confessed enough for one day

Inti,

Never.

Never touched Alcohol, Never touched Ciggarettes, Never Touched Drugs. Yes my teenage life might seem boring, but I prefer clean living, and I think of all the cash I have saved by not doing any of the above...

If Only I Had that Cash in the first place

Did it, dont regret it, but I wouldnt recommend it. Its kindof on par with other memories of "wow that was stupid of me" like playing in the roofs of really tall condemned structures, hopping trains, cliff diving into unknown waters, playing with dangerous animals, and hitchhiking planes. Memories I wouldnt give up but definetly not something Id recommend to anyone I liked.

Oops...now that I look at that question I see that you are totally right. I guess the best answer for #2 if you've never done drugs would be "nope". At least, that's what I'm assuming people will do. Or just skip it, as you did

Well got drunk twice if that counts as a (drug)I would NEVER drink again after time number two where bad things happened.
I'm 17 so not only is it illegal for me in the first place which made getting drunk DUMBER then normal since I'm not a drinker I downed a coffee mug full of burbone streight up, with no food or anything else in my stomach heh BAAAAD TIMES. Worst part is I have a bad gag reflex so I couldn't throw any of that crap in my stomach up I just kept having churning nausea until I got a brief spout of diahrea (SP?) where I was wishing that I had just thrown up lol.

Either way the headache is also NOT worth it in the morning I tell yah, ouch. Well other then those there are dozens of reasons I can give for never getting drunk or doing drugs EVER again.
(not to mention I think alcohol tastes like fermented chicken piss if ever there was one.)
