Why did you start using drugs?
    #14109286 - 03/12/11 02:20 PM (12 years, 10 months ago)

Hi everyone,

I tried searching for a thread already made because I assumed there would be LOADS.. but I couldn't find anything. Maybe my searching method sucks? If there is a big one with a poll, could any of you kindly direct me to that?

Or just vote away!

It was peer pressure for me. I didn't even like it much at first - it made me a bit nauseous the first few times I toked, but after a while, I grew to like it. The rest, as they say, is history.

My parents and all their friends got high so I kinda grew up seeing it as a normal thing. They were pretty much all hippies. I went protest marching and liberty caps hunting with my mom when I was a kid. First time I officially got high with my dad and my uncles was when I was 14.

Went to a friends apartment and he gave me half an 8th of mushrooms.  At that time I had never smoked before and was much more interested in hallucinating then just feeling good and getting high.  We ate them, 2 hours passed and nothing kicked in.  So I said, "I attempted at doing one drug tonight, I might as well do another."  Smoked my first bowl, subsequently ate a ton of Doritos, and felt this amazing happy feeling cover me.
Then, to my surprise, the mushrooms kicked in.  I was completely fucked for 2 hours, all the closed eye visuals looked like they were generated on a Macromedia flash game/cartoon.  It was an amazing introduction to drugs.

I chose stress. First time I ever smoked a cig, I was resltess and pissed off. lol, teen angst.

I drank before that, everyone did, but it probably had more to do with wanting to get away from home; weed, too. Then I started using hallucinogens because I wanted to release, but many times I have used them due to peer pressure or stress.

Coke was the first thing I got 'attached' to. My friends were always into pot, but for some reason my body never agreed with it. I used to always have such a horrible time, couldn't breathe, nor function to the slightest, even in low doses. Coke was always very fun, and manageable, gave me a great feeling and never made me feel like I wasn't in control. Unfortunately, heart problem arising from that very hobby, I'm not able to take anymore of the drug. It's been almost three years.

Curiosity option best describes me.

I got interested in drugs in about the 4th or 5th grade- when I was introduced to them by the DARE program.  I grew up in an extremely overprotective, sheltered household so I had never heard of these neat chemicals.  It was so fascinating to me... seeing a cornucopia of weird little objects you could use to feel different.

Finally, I met people when I was in 9th grade, and got to try cannabis and some others.

A totally hetty blend of curiosity (I had stumbled across a website mentioning psychedelics and their effects when I was probably a freshman/sophomore in high school and had spent hours researching these fascinating drugs and their effects via Erowid and elsewhere), peer pressure (my girlfriend as a junior in high school wanted me to smoke marijuana), and rebellion (not only were drugs illegal but my parents strongly disapproved of them).  Marijuana was the first drug I ever tried (excluding perhaps a sip of beer as a child), then came booze and gravity-bonging Salvia with high school friends, and it rapidly gained momentum from there.  :rocket:

Found some pot in my parents' closet, so I smoked it with some friends out of sheer curiosity.

Pretty much the same here. Except I was the "good kid" who believed all their bullshit until about the 9th grade, when I finally got bored enough to look up "marijuana" on Wikipedia. Then, I got interested in some things 420magazine had to say, then finally asked a guy I knew for a pinch of weed.

'Course, I haven't had any opportunity to take anything since then. And of course, my parents and all of their friends drank, and I made some of my own, but I hate being drunk.

College is gonna be fun next year. . .

I was young when I first came across green.. at my baby-sitter's when we found a bag and we "attempted" to smoke some (like we knew what we were doing)... I don't think I even inhaled, but I still remember the taste... it was really raggity stuff.. just terrible. 

Then freshman year in high school was re-introduced to it through another friend. I didn't even get high this time or the next time, not sure why I kept doing it.  Then one day after school, me and K went on a roadie and put in Bob Marley rolled up a cone and smoked it.. finally it hit me, I begin laughing so hard and I couldn't feel my legs for a long time.  Oh man, I'll never forget that day... Haven't regretted it one bit.

I did it because I somehow started reading about the history of LSD so I was going around, blindly looking for it in high school, to no avail, and then a buddy took me to his house and smoked me out. From there I tried just about everything at least once. Did heroin for a couple years on and off, I ODed and quit that shit. Now I just smoke and trip occationally.
