but you have to do it in the right situation/place with the right people your first time. i wanna go out to the forest or go camping or something when i try it
I don't do any drugs apart from alcohol because I have no need for them. Plus theres nothing more boring than people forever talking about how much they get wasted all the time.

Vagina.
And of course Caffeine.
Caffeine is about it for me...
Hell, I don't even take aspirin...
I'll have the occasional beer, but only around other friends who are also drinking said beer (and even then, it's mostly due to the "peer pressure" of not wanting to put a damper on their time, rather than myself actually wanting a beer... I honestly don't like the stuff... I just tend to make the sacrifice of having one or two to make them feel better...lol)
So yeah, caffeine is about the only "drug" (purely technical) that I use regularly (or ever)...
And even with caffeine, I don't tend to get much out of it... I just like drinking Coca Cola... I don't use it to wake up, and I don't drink it in any other form than Coke...
I've never really felt any desire to do any drug... Not even alcohol... I've been drunk a small handful of times, and I honestly didn't enjoy it...

Opiates. In a controlled environment, of course. I love that sensation of being completely out of my mind, where not even emotions like love matter.
The problem with street opiates like heroin is that the effects are so goddamn good that nothing else matters. Unfortunately the rest of the community doesn't agree with the junky's perspective on the drug, because they haven't had the supreme pleasure of an opiate high. I suspect that if every person used it, human society would collapse, and no-one would give a toss until the high wore off.
With an opiate high, the pleasure is so intense that it supersedes everything you hold as precious. The high is so good, that every other meaningful thing is worthless in comparison. That's why it's dangerous. Sure, it makes you constipated and can mess about with your cardiovascular system, but its real danger is as a destroyer of social functioning.
It's insanely good, though. Everything else I've tried is rubbish in comparison.

I've played with heroin in the past, and so have some of my friends. One of my buddies once said something I totally agree with. "I can't use heroin anymore because I like it too much."
I stick with a little beer or liquor to unwind after work, and the occasional puff of weed when I'm hanging out with one of my pothead friends. Everything else is either too much fun or not enough fun to bother with.

Mmmm...sex on heroin...its scrumpdiddlyumpocious!
I don't do anything more than weed these days, but there was a time when I was strung out on opiates for about, oh, 5 years straight.
I enjoy my sobriety now, but back when I was chasing the high, the ultimate had to be Fentanyl. Its a synthetic opiod analgesic, very powerful, feeels like heroin but kicked up a notch, and no need for needles or chasing the dragon. Just slap on a transdermal patch and get completely MANGLED for 3 days.
My other favourite was MDMA. A nice blend of 80% MDMA and 20% Crystal is best, to avoid compete mashing. If I feel that good, I want to be able to move. Having been a Meth Cook to put myself through college (but bever a real user of the stuff) I had easy access to both MDMA and Crytal in their purest forms.
Though I've done my fair share of drinking, I've never understood the widespread appeal of a drug that makes you puke and act like a total ass. I feel sorry for alcoholics, I think they should be put out of my misery. Problem is that when they do that service themselves, the usually take someone else with them.
I still get the occasional urges and cravings for opiates, but have no desire to return to the misery they caused me. I wouldn't even know where to get them anymore.

oh it makes me chatty too, but conversations are generally not much fun when drunk...
depends of course on how much i've had. after a certain level when i loose mental control i'm a whole barrel of laughs:p
weed calms me down, thats why i like it. it allows me to stop thinking about everything/anything for 5 minutes of the day.
shame about not having much effect on you - some people just don't get anything. then again it could be the weed; i went through a 2 month spell of thinking there was something wrong with me but it turned out to just be the crop (first of the harvest - just wasn't very potent :rolleyes: and, according to friends, i have a high weed tolerance... go figure - you could be like me i guess)

Hmm, It does have a calming effect, yeah. But if i'm depressed and I smoke it, i'll still be depressed. If I drink when depressed (provided i'm with friends, I won't drink alone to "medicate" myself) I always have a good time and lift my mood. Just a personal thing, I guess.
I do seem to have a tolerance to most drugs...including alcohol. (That's not bragging, i'd much prefer to get drunk on 4 beers rather than 8 or more) Don't get me wrong, weed does affect me, but I find only get the good high from it if I smoke joints. If I use a bong, I just get tired....or maybe I can't use it properly :p

Well, for me, I stick to alcohol, and then only in moderation...I enjoy weed, but for *ahem* legal reasons :eek: , I am currently not smoking, nor will I be for the forseeable future.
Hallucinogens are fun, but you really have to make sure you never find a steady and regular supply of the stuff, because they are enough fun that once you get over the initial weirdness of tripping, it's really easy to take them every two or three days and be tripping constantly.
I have a couple of friends who have had their personalities permenantly changed by LSD, and not necessarily for the better. Not stupid or deranged or anything, just different. One friend of mine also has really bad dreams as a result of his use of LSD.
Speed is fun, but if your not perscribed to it, it can cause serious mental problems if used extensively, as was suggested by someone to achieve hallucinations, extreme paranoia and extensive mood swings being the principle ones.
I shudder when I hear of anyone who likes MDMA...that stuff literally eats holes in your brain.

The only thing Speed on it own ever did for me was make me irritable and prone to fits of house cleaning. I made the stuff and my own product did nothing much for me. Other people were over the moon about it. I think your brain has to be wired a certain way to get anyhting from amphetamines and methapmphetamines all on their own.
When combined with weed though, it always did my head in very nicely. Its best done with MDMA though, as an adjunct to kick the high up a notch and to reach escape velocity from the dreaded couch-pie phase of a typical MDMA high. If you knew what went into it you'd probably steer clear of it though.
Adrenaline. i get it from needles.
i suffer from Trypanophobia- Fear of injections. Last time i went into hospital for an injection they gave me (a small 15-year-old geek with acute h4xx0rz's finger) 2.5 times the adult dosage of vallium (some good strong K'O drops) and the adrenaline in my system was so strong at the anticipation of an injection i failed to feel sleepy when i shoulda been out like a light. in fact, i looked a bit like this:

see! without the risk of nasty diseases, i get high through needles!

Actually, the paranoia is a natural side effect, that is further enhanced with continued use. Normally the paranoia is so mild you never notice, but if your taking it regularly over a 5-7 day period, you don't even have to be awake the whole time for the drug to start affecting your mental state in negative ways.
My friend's ex-girlfriend was addicted to speed...she went on a four day binge and only slept for 3 hours during that time. Towards the end she called him. He told me that what he could make out of her ramblings was...
"I'M NOT CRAZY! I'M RIGHT AREN'T I? I'M RIGHT, I'M NOT CRAZY...I'M NOT CRAZY!!!"
Doesn't sound like simple sleep deprivation to me...considering she has never claimed to have seen hallucinations while on speed.

That may have something to do with the vast Opium Poppy fields in Tasmania. The only legal opiate manufacturing industry in the world in your own backyard...hmmm. You can buy it over the counter, no prescription needed, here in Canada. Much weaker than a Tylenol 5.

Tylenol 3 contains 30mg of Codeine, plus 300 MG Aceticylic Acid (Tylenol) and 30mg Caffeine. Tylenol 5 are something like 100mg of just Codeine. Big difference.

Due to the fact that I have a very anti-pain outlook on life, I am a big fan of Solpadeine, another of those codeine/paracetemol hybrids. Currently I have the Superdrug own-brand version, but it's largely the same. I may use them too frivolously sometimes, such as when I have only a slight headache, but I prefer to be on the safe side when it comes to limiting my suffering.
Other than that, alchohol it must be, specifically Guinness or a nice glass of red wine.
I have tried marijuana twice, and while the effects were moderate and quite nice, it has had a bad enough influence on some of my friends to put me off smoking it regularly. Nothing too serious, just the general laziness and inability to focus on coursework (I have enough of these qualities already!).
Nicotine was another of my drugs until a few months ago, but I'm glad to see the back of that addiction.
Anything else I'm just too cowardly to even consider!

It's not fun. I tried it during my "psychadelic" phase. It's not hallucinogenic, and it's nothing like LSD. It's smokeable insanity. You have absolutely no idea what's going on around you and in your confused state you start making bad decisions. It's scary. One time I almost got in my car and drove while under it's influence. Luckily friends stopped me. Another time I was seriously considering suicide under it's influence. Luckily the effects last only a very short time, so I sobered up a bit before killing myslef.
To recap, it's not fun, it's scary, it's dangerous. Don't do it.

Yup. It contains.... damn! I forgot. But it is a narcotic.

My heirarchy is as follows:
1. Marijuana-LSD TIE
I love acid, but at the same time I realize that it's not something that can or should be done on a regular basis. Not only that, but your body makes a chemical that nullifies its effects, so you can't just keep eating it continuously either. Marijuana speaks for itself: I probably favor it slightly more than acid by virtue of the fact that I do it much more often. The wonderful thing about marijuana is it makes boredom tolerable. Oftentimes I've found that when hanging out with my friends no other entertainment medium is needed, and it facilitates us actually sitting down and talking about things. Good ol' human interaction.
3. Booze.
Booze is great. My only problem with it is the day after; pound for pound its about the best buzz you can get. When I can't/don't get weed booze is my secondary.
4. Pills
Depends what kind of pills, most don't do anything to me. I've eaten probably close to 10 vicodin in 48 hours and didn't notice any effects. At some point my friends and I decided to go fight in the front yard, assuming that the pain-killing effects would be made evident at that point. They weren't. My pills of choice are Tylenol III's.
5. Shrooms
I've eaten shrooms twice, and I have to admit their effects were far less marked than I had expected. The first time I ate them, I got a fairly nice body buzz, but little in the way of visuals. The second time I ate them, they did absolutely nothing. I need to try fresh shrooms sometime.
6. Coke
Coke is pretty stupid; the only reason its even on this list is because I've done it a few times, and thus I'm obligated to rank it. Dollar for dollar, it's just about the worst buzz you can buy; pretty much all it does is give you a bit of energy and want more coke. When my friend and I did it for the first time, the sentiment was: "I don't see what the big deal is. Let's do another line."
7. Speed
Speed sucks. The thing that attracted me to it at first was the fact that when I did it it made me do productive things. Some of my best writing [all of which are on these forums] were done while I was high on speed. When my roommates and I would smoke pot, we'd sit on the couch, eat, and watch TV. When we based speed, however, we did things like take the trash out, clean the room, or do the dishes. It was very useful in some regards, but it's altogether too addictive, and it caramelizes your lungs when you freebase it.
I did it for about 6 weeks last year, and that was enough.
8. Opium/Salvia
Doesn't do shit to me. Nada. And yes, I know the proper method for smoking salvia, and opium hash. Still nothing.

1) They would mean less time watching pr0n and gaming.
2) I don't want to constantly hide shit.
3) I can easily ruin both my time and others without any assistance.
"Hey Derek,"
"Yeah?"
"THINK FAST!" I slap him in the face.
4) Why? :confused:
Almost forgot,
5) Expensive, in most cases.

Yeah, this is one of the things a lot of marijuana demonizers love to forget. It's a social habit much like drinking, and it oftentimes facilitates a better understanding between two people. When you're stoned you're more likely to open up and really get going on something. Provided the listener is coherent enough to decipher and respond to it, it invariably strengthens relationships.

Oh, and just an incidental aside to anyone who's thinking about trying acid: make sure you have an unburdened mind before you do it. You don't want to eat acid when you have something big hanging over your head like a bad breakup or being fired or anything like that. Bad trips are generally a psychological phenomenon, as opposed to any flaw in the acid itself.
Also, don't pay more than 10 or 12 dollars for a hit, depending on availability. Where I am it's pretty sparse, so prices are high. I don't buy it unless I buy in bulk and get a discount on account of this.

10 or 12 dollars? I've never paid more than seven, and before I quit using it I found a hookup for $3 doses. Good stuff too.

exactly. i've learned about and shared more with my housemate from our stoned conversations than from 2 years of sober convesations. it is most definatley a sociable drug - exemplified by passing round the doob :)
and, as you seem to know this sort of thing, how is taking acid (or shrooms for that matter) when depressed or deeply confused?

I wouldn't reccommend it. Acid is definately something to save for special events.

If you mean "drug" drugs, then none. And never will. Why? Because, living on the fronts of a drug war(as in Living in Panama and Pakistan) will do that to ye.
Oh, and I don't feel like poisoning me body :p.
