Feel like I'm getting sucked into the drug culture...

So I've been interested in drugs since... well, since I've been 14, almost five years ago. Back then, I had smoked salvia, weed, dropped acid, eaten mushrooms... I read alot about drugs back then, too, but didn't get the feeling I'm getting now. Now, I'm getting a bit deeper into the whole thing, and that is bothering me. I spent New Years with some good friends, one who was tripping on acid and said that he could get heroin. Now, I immediately blocked the idea out of my head, but it seems like it's been a catalyst, for a realisation, that is. Lately, I've been reading up about all sorts of trash - opiates, DXM, stimulants(by that I mean amphs, coke, etc.) and have kinda begun to feel my prejudices against these drugs breaking down. Now, theoretically, that's a good thing, right? Well, practically, I never want to touch these things. A while ago, I got badly depressed, and thought that I just wanted to go on a drug binge, doing ecstasy and things like that. And now this really scares me, on a very deep, soulful level. I'm just wondering... Do you guys have any suggestions on how I could get rid of this feeling, of these thoughts(which I very much don't like), of all of that other crap? Should I dry myself out for a while? Stop hanging out with the people I hang out with(this is a Catch-22 - all the other options are people even more deeply into drugs that the ones I hang out with, who are not very interested in them at all)? Thanks in advance.

every group of friends has a voice of reason. you sound like you are that one. you know in your mind what to do. follow your gut and don't get any deeper than you already are. the really hardcore drugs like heroin, coke, etc. can ruin a life in a matter of months. steer clear of em.

I have a very open mind when it comes to drugs,
but herion is one that i cant stand, i have never tried it and have no desire. I see it as a very dangerious drug. Working in glasgow all the time i see the destruction that herion brings to addicts, u can tell how they look, act and speak that there either an addict or on methodone.
Just the other day a guy got on the bus totaly out of his mind, refused to pay his fair, talking absolute jibirish thought he was funny, then when we got on the motorway asked where he was and realised that he didnt want to be on the bus and was only going a few stops from where he got on.
And started pestering the driver to get off . He had absolutly no idea where he was. God only knows where he went after getting of the bus in town.
Personaly i would steer clear of E aswell, a binge on e can leave u depressed for weeks and not quite with it, plus its very dangerous to overdoo it on E. I went threw a breif period of e addiction and now i hate the stuff, plus i only ever had 2 pills that were fantastic which were comparable to being high on love.
Being high on love by the way, will keep u away from them, i have had the similar high from E except 10 times better for 6 days straight now.
Coke is a funny one , i like coke but its so expensive for what it is i dont see the point in buying it. last time i did it lasted me a few hours and cost me £50.
A few of my mates easily spend £200 over a few days on the stuff at new year. Plus its usually not that great coke.
Also note, any drug can ruin your life, but the harder stuff like Coke and herion have a much higher chance, herion being the most addictive.
Just remember is that do things because u want to do them, not because other people do it. dont get pushed into it, you r your own person and its your choice, not anybody elses.
I took acid because I wanted to not because anyone told me to, infact i never even got offered it its a bit of a long story but i tried acid and mushrooms of my own accord after reading up about them, and the advice of an experienced tripper who did not pressure me into it

Maybe stay away from drugs for a while. Your conscience is warning you. When you spend time with drug people, you start to think like them. You might start to believe that drugs are THE way to have fun. Whenever there's a thread like "what would you do with a million dollars" I see so many posters here saying they would buy a huge supply of drugs, as if it is a given that drugs are the most desirable experience to be had. Don't buy into that illusion.
My closest friends are alcoholics; great people, but they don't know how to enjoy themselves without alcohol. I find it difficult to hang around with them without drinking myself. They make it seem so normal and acceptable to drink a six pack while you do whatever you were going to do anyway. I really have to step back sometimes to see whether my own use is abusive, because in contrast to some people, dangerous behavior can look "not that bad."

Hopi,
Just for the record, Opiates, Amphetamine, and Coke are not trash. The idea you have of them is probably the result of years and years of propaganda. The chinese have smoked opium for hundreds of years, cocaine was used in dentists office, and crystal meth has recently been approved for children with ADHD.
It's how you use these drugs that matter. Jelly Beans aren't inherently dangerous, but they are if you eat bushels of them a day. If you use these drugs, use them responsibly and be aware of addiction potential. If you think you can't control yourself around them, by all means don't use them.
DXM is dirty though, no if's and's or buts about that.

WhiskeyClone, thanks, yeah, I think that's what I'll do. It might be a bit hard, though, since I just smoked a bowl... But I guess that that's what'll have to be done!
Appleoranges - I know that, of course, but I still - well, let's just say I don't really want to get into the semantics. For me, coke, opium, meth, etc. is trash. Sorry about that!

Not crystal meth, but just plain amphetamine. Still a pretty ludicrous idea to hop kids up on an amphetamine when they can barely sit still to begin with.

If someone offered me something that really was PURE MDMA, I would take it in a heartbeat. But, seeing as most everything is cut with some sort of junk(not meant as in heroin, but as in trash ), I'm not planning on trying it...
My plan is to lay back on the weed and other psychedelics(though I don't know if I'll be able to resist if I get a chance to get a good quantity of quality shrooms or a few tabs of acid...), take up meditation, and get a bit religious - read about Buddhism, Hinduism, etc. Take my mind off of drugs. Something like that.
