Need a new poll. Ask my wife if she does drugs, she'll say yes...and she doesn't do illegal drugs. Ask me if I do drugs, I'll say yes...and I don't do legal drugs. What's the point again?
Since alcohol counts I'll vote yes. Weed doesn't count as a drug though, if I just did that I woulda voted no.
Unless one of your parents is chemically dependent on either alcohol or more, making you genetically predisposed to addiction, there's no reason not to experiment. At the very least, have a drink. Put your feet up.
It typically isn't but it should be. It's more dangerous than many legal (prescription) and illegal drugs. If any drug shouldn't be included it's pot. Nobody has ever died as a direct result of smoking pot. It is not physically addictive. It has virtually no long term effects any more serious than issues with motivation or short term memory (in heavy users) and it has various medicinal properties. As Bill Hicks said, "Don't include pot in the drug category - it's an herb, man." I have done every drug at some point another. Alcohol was the only one I ever had a problem with, so I quit drinking entirely 11 and a half months ago. At the same time I quit using anything more serious than pot, and that only in extreme moderation. I still occasionally take a toke, I still smoke cigarettes, I drink caffeine (coffee, never sodas) and I take medications prescribed by my doctors (none of which are typically used recreationally). By my standards, especially relative to the twenty-five years that came before last May, that makes me sober.
Drugs are bad, mmmmmkay! But yeah I still do them, as long as you are not addicted, I see no issue in partaking in the fun. Don't operate heavy machinery either!
im shocked that 49% of posters dont even drink, let alone do drugs. and what about prescription pills? i would say they are more dangerous than alcohol and even most illegal drugs.
I voted before reading the OP post, so I voted No, but I do drink I dont smoke cigarrettes or do other drugs, just alcohol.
I drink quite a lot during meals and such, smoke cigs every once in a while when I go out... Smoke hookah pretty much all the time and weed every once in a while (when my friends have them). Been around other drugs but never took any.
I can't seem to quite kick the alcohol habit. Though I am trying. I have tried everything I can think of with the exception of crack, heroin or methamphetamine. (Though I no longer really do any of them save alcohol and caffeine) Never smoked much mar1juana, I thought about subbing it for the alcohol since it would clearly be easier on me, on both the physical and mental health fronts, but I have always had the pot tolerance of a 7 year old girl. I just pass out, almost immediately. I can drink four burly longshoremen under a table, but 2 puffs and I am heading for mandatory napville.
