Why not do drugs?
I use drugs because they increase my quality of life.

I used to have a friend that 'claimed' that they only did drugs because they were illegal.

You are probably right, they would SCREAM it while making the devil sign and sticking their tongue out.

Not sure if you got that right. Pretty sure religiously it's been used to communicate with the dead or to talk to spirits etc...
Not everyone takes drugs for recreational purposes.

You said some people probably take drugs to feel sad. I'm saying no, we aren't talking about religious ceremonies or psyches.

Dude... look at the OP...
"I suppose some people do drugs to help expand their consciousness or to attain a higher place of enlightenment. This would probably include religious/shamanistic ritual use of drugs.
OK maybe you got a point. And it was stupid for me to say, but I'm just saying people don't usually do drugs to feel BAD, but to feel sorrow or sad, I'm 100% sure that happens.

Not on purpose, no one goes out, buys drugs, and does them with the intent to feel sorrow. If it happens it happens it is unintentional. Just because someone has a ba trip doesn't mean try purposely wanted a bad trip.

Self expression? Why do people cut on themselves? Why do people shoot themselves in the head. Why do people like dark evil death metal? Why do people kill kittahs? WTF? I don't know why, but I DO know that there ARE people out there like that.
Fucked up people...

Of course no one needs drugs to have fun, but you don't need a car to get to where you want to go. It just helps along the way. Plus some are great for finding out stuff about yourself!

Playing the devils advocate here, I could see where OP is coming from. Haven't you ever self-loathed? Like when your upset about something you did, instead of trying to make yourself feel better and fix the wrong you've done, you just beat yourself up real bad, and you do it on purpose, no one is making you. When my grandpa passed away, all I did was beat myself up about how I didn't keep in contact with him, and I don't know why I did it, cause he would never be mad at me, but I still did it anyway.
I think that thought process could be transferred to drug use. I've seen people drink just to fuck themselves ya know? Like they what their doin is hurting themselves, but they do it anyway, its definitely irrational, but they're still doin it on purpose?
