I have now stopped it all and have not had anything for about eight months now, due to going very para last year of far too much coke which really sorted me out to be honest because i stopped everything else because of this stage.
Just like to say though i do believe that weed is ladder up to stronger things if you are easily led or slightly curious as it puts you in the surroundings of the harder drugs which means you just seem to get wrapped up in in all an before you know it your having difficulty getting the list of drugs you “havnt” done off one hand.
Thats my view anyway 😉
I did it totally back 2 front then. First thing I ever took was acid…
Only reason I started smoking weed was cos we couldn’t get any acid and had heard you could hallucinate heavily off weed. Did smoke weed for many years, and discovered hash is addictive…Gave up, and don’t really enjoy it now.
Still maintain the most dangerous drug is a 2 horse race between cigarettes and alcohol (the only other thing that comes close is angel dust, but most people are more sensible than to take that, so it’s not available really)
Had personal experience of problems with both. Tobacco has to be the American Indians revenge for the White man’s evils in the new world… Definetly the most addictive drug on the planet – I had a bitch of a time kicking that addiction (and did any of you do the sums with that drug harm list thing. Came out as essentially 1 in 21.5 people who smoke will die from it…:crazy:…Not good odds….)
Alcohol didn’t have a number of users figure (listing as “most adults”. Forgot to list “and many kids too”). 22000 deaths a year in the UK though!!
Again, personal experience of alcohol (given up now, and teetotal – only way). Being hooked on that leaves you right buggered up though (did me anyway). Couldn’t think, lethargic, self pitying. Total ass really, and I’m glad i’ve got my act together, and got away from it. Had a pal when I was young OD’d on alcohol, and nearly died – spent 2 weeks in hospital. And seen someone dieing from sclerosis of the liver (and massive nervous system damage to the point he is in a wheelchair that he can barley move himself). He’s only just over 40 too.:hopeless::hopeless::hopeless:
I’ve also done the “silly amounts”, but never liked coke or K, and never wanted to try crack or H (seen too many people screw up on that to ever want it). Anything hallucinogenic, MDMA and it’s various phenethylamine friends, and speed are my vices really (gave up taking those for a good few years though – always wary of any possible creeping addictions these days – had to kick too many to let that happen again…
That’s the really golden rule though isn’t it. You can use the drugs, but if you start abusing them, or getting used by them, it’s time to do something about it
