responsible drug users vs. the other garbage

#1889667 - 09/06/03 09:51 PM (20 years, 7 months ago)

Has anyone had someone or a group of people try and bring you down because you use drugs? I'm sure everyone here has at least once. Can anyone give me any insight on why people are like this? Why nobody listens? I've had numerous non-drug users give me shit or try and bring me down by saying i'm "wasting my life" which seems to be the only thing they can ever come up with. Then you go and try and tell them why exactly it is you use these substances and then they run away and hide and don't accept any facts that you give them? They like to spout all sorts of myths like "Marijuana is a gateway drug" or my personal favorite from an ex-friend of mine who decided to be a huge bitch about everything I did , "When you do acid you have a 50/50 chance of going insane". Then after having them give you "reasons" why you shouldn't do drugs (all of which are myths, and lies), you give them the straight out researched facts and they either shut up and don't want to talk about but keep their same perspective on the "evil drugs", or they actually leave. Not only that, but when I try and talk to people about drugs, I make sure that I stay extra calm about it so i don't blow up in their face and make them think im "just some crazy guy who is addictid to crack" or something like that. So it's not like im being confronting, or telling them they should do drugs, i just defend myself and tell them the truth. But still no one listens.

Then you have the actual drug users themselves. Some of them are pretty decent people who are actually much more nicer and down to earth then the "norm". But then there are the drug users who actually are bad people. They use people, they lie, they cheat, and they steal. I try as hard as I can to distance myself from these people but they are still all over the place. You take these people, and add them to the "norm" (non-drug users as mentioned above) and you get a bunch of people who only listen to a government who lies right to their face and get them to take out all of their frustrations out on perfectly harmless people such as myself thinking im going to rob a bank because i need a fix. To me, this is the only reason that things like marijuana, mushrooms, lsd, etc, are not legal. What i mean is. Government + people + junkies (opposed to responsible drug users [nothing wrong with drugs just be a good person and be responsible])= a big force of just negative energy and unhappiness.

Is anyone else as frusterated as I am with people fucking them over for 20 bucks worth of some god damn bud? or trying to talk to people who bring you down but just wont listen to your side of the story? are you sick of sleazy dealers who try and rip you off for some meaningless money? i know i am. If anyone sells drugs, it should not be for making any kind of profit at all except to cover the cost of gas to drive to their house or the actual money that that dealer paid for the bud (make sense?). Dealing should be a means of helping other people achieve that spiritual insight they were looking for, or maybe a nice relaxing evening with some friends or something like that. Im sick of drugs and money going hand in hand because that's not the way things should be.

I've been ripped off. I've had people treat me like shit. I've had people try and bring me down and I guess all i can do is just keep on going with my life. But i must say, wouldn't life be so much better if people would listen and junkies wern't such, well, junkies. Cops should be chasing actual bad people, like psycho killers and people robbing banks. Simple possesion or personal consumption of "drugs" should not be illegal, and i still cannot realise how an establishment could make it so, because to do so is a HUGE violation of someones personal rights in my opinion. I don't know. This is just what's been on my mind today. It's open for discussion. I just wanna know how everyone feels.
