    First I used mar1juana at the age of 13. That was illegal, so yes.

    Then, a year later, I used alcohol. That was illegal too, so yes again.


    Then came a lot more crap around 16/17...so I'll issue a resounding yes on that one.


    Overall, yes.

    Just thought I'd mention this to any pot-smoking travelers out there:

    Never smoke before a flight. Now that is simply nightmarish.

    Be careful about what you hear in school. It may not all be true - but you can always trust your fellow clutchcity bbser's! :D

    Btw, I don't know about the pot, but soy protein will increase your estrogen levels.

    Nope. Never used any kind of illegal drugs, not even smoked a ciggie. Age: 21.

    Just a lifestyle choice, I've seen what drugs do to people first hand. I don't want to end up like that. (dead)

    I had an uncle that was a drunk and pretty worthless and my dad had a heart attack thanks to his smoking. That was enough to make me not smoke or drink. I haven't done any illegal drugs... to my knowledge. Hell, I don't even like taking legal drugs. :)

    One of the metabolites of THC is a mimic of estrogen and therefore if smoked regularly over long periods of time will cause muscle catabolism and gynomastia (man-boobs).

    Which is the reason I quit doing drugs. I used to be a modern day shaman of sorts. Back in my first couple of years of college I knew all the best mushroom fields in a tri-state area. I also spent many of my highschool weekends in Amsterdam smoking and drinking shroom tea. It is funny, my first BBS was as a member of a board called "The Shroomery" which I believe is still around. During my early college years I went to every major Austin Rave - Both the Airports, Electric Daisy, everytime Oakenfold, Tiesto or Van Dyke came to town... of course all while candy flipping...

    Then one day I had my ass kicked in a most humiliating and remarkable way. Long story short, a guy was harrassing my girlfriend at a party, I tried to make him stop and he and his friend beat the crap out of me. I was drunk and high and could hardly defend myself. I realized that I never wanted to feel that way again. So I started lifting weights like I did back in highschool except I took it more seriously. After a year I had my Certified Personal Trainer certificate. I can bench 280lbs, squat 370lbs, and deadlift 410lbs at 167 lbs of bodyweight and I haven't done any illegals in about three years simply because I haven't wanted too. I like the rewards of working out better. My best friend from my drug days now works in Houston and makes a lot of money as a freelance programmer but has a serious pill and coke addiction.

    Another thing is that you really can't get a good girlfriend doing **** like illegal drugs. Not a girl that isn't promiscuous, immature, and problem prone. They will either be trouble because they do drugs too or they will distance themselves from you because you do drugs. You really have to pick your drug, just like in Half Baked, ass or grass.

    Yes, I have done an illegal drug (pot). Doing drugs is certainly not something to brag about though. Not to sound like an old grampa here, but this thread really seems to be a lot of people bragging about how many drugs they've done. In my opinion doing drugs does not make you cool at all. It makes you seem like you'll do anything for attention or have low self-esteem.

    Do massive doses of legal medications not prescribed to me by a doctor count as illegal?

    19 only thing illegal Ive done is underage drinking, when I was 10 I saw my grandpa pass from lung cancer, he told me on one of his last days not to smoke amongst other topics while grasping for air. Those words have pretty much stuck with me ever since, never touched a ciggerete, weed, or anything like that ever.

    I thought you drove a 1976 green Vega and were very proud of it - then I saw the n.

    i've seen a few people in this thread saying that they have the impression people are 'bragging' about their drug use or whatever. man, it ain't even 'bout that. there's things we have all done in our lives that we are or are not proud of. but the reality is that it happened. it did happen. 'fessin up to it doesn't make you 'bragging'.

    also, if you do still smoke (herb, that is), there's really been nothing definitively proven to be wrong with it...outside of being illegal.

    I'm pretty sure that any smoke in your lungs over time will shorten your life. I have my own personal experience with pot and hospitalizing me for smoking too much over time - my traica (sp) tube was black and my lungs were brown.

    And I must add that I'm proud of the 1/3 of you that have not. For those of you who have not already responded, what kept you from trying? (Tips for my kids)...

    amen brutha

    tripping on shrooms and laying down in a field and looking up into the clear night sky is amazing...

    also watching "The Wall" is enjoyable while tripping


    :D
