What got YOU interested in drugs?

I've always been curious, and when I was 12 I stole oxycodone pills from my mom, and loved the feeling of euphoria, happiness, and just..pleasure. I tried cough syrup, which gave me my first panic attack, but I've tried it 4 times since then. I also tried weed at 13, haha, my first time with that was in my friends backyard. Him and his brother built a fort under this bush, has a sofa, a back car seat, a table, and a grocery cart in it. I'll never forget that.

 

Well I've just always been intrigued by drugs ever since I can remember. Both of my parents did numerous drugs when I was pretty small so that could have something to do with it. Smoked marijuana for the first time in the summer after 6th grade and then wanted something more.... exotic? or unique? Dunno how to explain it. So then I tried shrooms, DXM, meth, X, and that is about it. Decided I liked hallucinogens the best and now here I am.

 

while I was in gradeschool, having so many pharmaceuticals in my house was my gateway. reading go ask alice soon after made me venture on from into more.

 

When I was younger I was completely anti-EVERYTHING because my dad was addicted to heroin and fucked up a lot of shit, but then when I was in 8th grade I became friends with some hippy kids who smoked weed and whatnot and from there I began researching online about drugs and everything and I wanted to try weed SO bad. Then finally I did and I loved it and I've been tokin' ever since. Now I smoke like everyday. I've also done DXM when I was 14 and desperate, drink occasionally, did shrooms a few times (I love them and want to do them again but they're so hard to find around here!), and have popped some pills but I really like to just stick with weed, it's my loveeeee.

Oh and I'd really like to try e and lsd.

 

For me, it was simple: Erowid.org.

I've always been interested in seeing what drugs would be like since I was about 13 and everyone I knew that has experienced them say they really enjoy it and I even got facts on weed not being as bad as everyone says. I watched movies and such with people getting high and it made me want to try it to see for myself, since my brother, his friends, and my best friend are stoners that made me more convinced.

 

I was doing research about marijuana on the internet and found out everything they taught me in school about it was pretty much a lie...

 

I was about 5 and saw the movie Alice in Wonderland..

 

To be honest, I can take them or leave them. I like the occasional Provigil, Ambien, or simple painkiller, but I don't need to run away from my life because I'm happy with it. I'm also not a big fan of the people who sell the drugs (at least in my area; it may be different elsewhere) and the inflated prices of them. However, I don't know why, but I'm fascinated by illicit drugs, the drug sub-culture, and advocate the legalisation of relatively harmless drugs like marijuana.

 

^ Cha-Ching, we got a winner! Good man, good man. If there were more people with this kind of philosophy, the world might be a tad bit better.

health books in school... 6th grade..

 

I was one of those people completely against drugs, agreeing blindly with every drug fact shoved down my throat by the health teacher or television until partway through 9th grade. Some people i know started smoking weed and doing other drugs. I didn't really want to do it either because i still thought all drugs will kill you, then i heard about erowid.org, and when i visited the website, my eyes were opened. it was still half a year before i really got high (on benadryl), then another half year before i smoked weed.

 

rock and roll man!

 

Two (yeah, 2) Percodans administered during a John Wayne movie.
I simply fell in love! (with the drug, not John Wayne).
