That made me laugh a little bit, but also... yeah, bad trip flashback. The only psychedelic I ever had a good experience with was peyote.
I'll never forget the bumblebee. At one point, it was hovering in the corner, smoking a cigar and staring at me.
Bizarre shit. My imagination is way too vivid to deal with hallucinogens. Even pot fucks with me. One time I spent an hour staring at a stucco wall because I was watching Pangea form into continents in the stucco. Ugh.

Users of addictive drugs need incentives to get their lives back on track.. and that will never happen if they can't find jobs because of criminal backgrounds. Incarceration just adds on to a destructive cycle. There should be more publically-funded rehabilitation clinics because most drug addicts won't be able to afford the thousands of dollars it costs to attend a 28-day facility.
As for me, I used cystal meth for a few months and ultimately found out that all the negative things people say about it are true. I got out of it before anything really bad could happen but a lot of my friends weren't so lucky. Some of them are in prison now or got HIV from unsafe sex while high. Crystal meth has a powerful hold on people, it makes you feel so great but before long the euphoria slides into a state of severe depression and paranoia. Its one of the worst things you can do to your mind and body.. and it is (for a lot of people, I just decided it was a waste) a very hard habit to break. (In case anyone was wondering, I've been clean for 4 years now :)
Hmm, I've done weed, shrooms and E. Loved all of them, stopped a few months ago because I felt like it, that or because I'm so lazy.

I agree that addicts need treatment, but I don't want there to be no prison time for certain drugs. Imagine someone considering trying meth or crack and thinking "Hmmm, well if it does get out of hand and I get busted, the government will take care of me and give me treatment." That's almost an encouragment to try drugs.
"I feel like I could take on the whole Empire myself."
I know a kid whose in juvenile for grand theft auto and drug related offences. Other than that I know a lot of kids in high school who do drugs.
I've never done drugs before because I know what they do to people.
I have seen the results of drug use on ppl. I used to be around a bunch of "recovering addicts" in a twelve step program. All kinds of ppl too. I felt sorry for them, especially since 70%+ will never fully recover and live clean again. Addiction = equivalent of death. So to sum up: Try Drugs = Get Addicted = Throw your life away = Death. That is my take on it.
I met a 17 year old heroin addict in college who was tying to get some help. She was from out of town and didn't have the greatest relationship with her parents. So I tried to get her into a clinic but they wouldn't take her without parental consent.
So she could have an abortion but she couldn't get life saving help for an addiction.
And yes it was life saving help. In the time I had with her I manged to get her into exercising, and kept her off the drugs. Then she moved back home where she OD and almost died 4 times once in a drunk car accendent.
Luckly she saw the writing on the wall and joined the millitary which has pretty muched saved her life.
As for me I don't do drugs never have.

I am open to trying most hallucinogens because they are often non-toxic, are non-addictive, and don't cause some of the physically debilitating effects that some of the harder core street and other recreational drugs cause.
I have tried marijuana, LSD, and salvia. I wouldn't try salvia again, but I would try LSD again. Marijuana is badass.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

Well, generally I agree with you. I count alcohol as one of those drugs and the majority of people "try it". Only a small percentage of all the people who drink become alcoholics.
The majority of people will become physically dependent on opiates very quickly. I've seen people become pill-poppers after an accident or surgery. In that case "trying" the drug is something that's prescribed by a doctor. Benzodiazepines (Valium, Klonopin, Xanax) are prescribed for a variety of reasons and are highly addictive.
