growing up

So do you think you'll grow up eventually and stop using drugs, slow down, or party even harder?

For those that are older how was it for you? Did it just happen, or did getting married, having kids made you slow down.

Me i have no idea. I just kinda figure in several years my drug intake will slow down on its on. I figure ill be smoking for a long time dunno about the other drugs though.

 

for some people it slows down. for some it snowballs and they get worse.

i had a friend who quit and got married. he is really whipped and his woman makes all his decisions. he's kinda pussy who hates his life. then i have another friend who has no control over anything, snorts anything he can get his hands on and loves every minute of his existance.

me... i stopped smoking because of a court case and i'm doing a lot with my life that i wouldn't be able to do if i was spending all my time/money on weed.

 

When I have a good job and my own house and what not I will definitely slow down on the drug intake... I probably will only smoke weed and that will probably rarely. I'll still drink, too of course.

 

i'll probly slow down on the drugs when i settle down but i don't plan on settling down for a long while. i'll still smoke and drink and maybe take acid if i go to a concert or something but very rarely

if i'm rich i'm gettin me some cocaine!

 

Hahah I'll definitely do coke if I'm rich. Good thinking, Greg!

 

i dunno about doing cocaine. thats kinda overrated i might to morphine though.

it seems to me that cocaine has a lot of bad health side effects whereas morphine is kinda awesome in every way.

 

I will definitely slow down once I enter professional school for whatever health profession I want to be, however, I will always have a taste for good beer and weed and I can't see that changing more than temporarily ever. Most of my other drug usage will certainly ease up or stop on its own, but you'll still find me drinking a Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale and bonging hardcore :sifone:

 

id say it depends on wether you like uppers or downers. Me im not a big fan of opiates cause i usually cant stay awake or i get really itchy

 

good luck with that man, most of my friends and me included partied way to hard our first year

 

Well judging from the older folks around here and the general attitude towards life in West Cork I think im pretty much going to be the same when im older. Still going to raves and stuff, most of the raves are organised by 50ish + year olds The countryside is full of old crusties and no matter where I end up in life this area is always going to be my home. And with my friends now set up in an 18 acre commune that they're squatting. With crops and livestock (and an ancre or two set aside for this growing season ) everything is all set up. I think the core of our group are always going to be druggy country crusties and thats 100% fine with me

 

the daily toka needs a daily toke, no other way to put it

 

I will probably continue to use drugs as i do now, only when i want to. I hope my life does not change as so drastically as to be forced to abandon my dear friends...

 

perhaps you wont see it that way. maybe you'll want to give them up later on like if you had a child or something

 

A lot depends on how one defines growing up. If you look at smoking pot as a sign of immaturity then it would be logical to assume that you regard recreational marijuana use to be childish behavior. The same can be said for other illegal drugs. If the supposed proponents of marijuana law reform look at its use in this manner then it doesn't look good for legalization... if the cultural bias against pot is hard written in the minds of its regular users.

 

I definitely don't want to be smoking mad weed and partying for the rest of my life. When I get a wife and all that jazz I'll definitely slow down a whole lot, take the occasional bong toke and thats about it.

 

hmm, your always good at getting me to think

Well, i am going to do my best to not have a child or get married. In the mean time, i use drugs for the altered perception, and what it allows me to do/see/think... At the moment, its something i really value and i am not sure i can outgrow it - in the generic term, since, well i do not think my use is immature. But i guess its possible for my mind to change and develop in a way for me to no longer gain anything or want the altered state, and put its interest's into other subjects...

 

You initiated a very thought provoking discussion...

 

i THINK what will happens is i'll probably smoke weed for a while, if i ever stop. i've been doing drugs for about 7 years now & i've been through my worst i think... hopefully haha. i'm pretty sure though. i'll probably stick with my psychedelics for a while also. the other drugs i do i will probably eventually slow down with and stop doing all together.
