It's all the same. They're drugs

This drug shit is bullshit. Why are some drugs so much worse than others? Adderrall, Ritalin, it's fine, but coke is the devil. And like someone said in another post, oxy's cool, but H is terrible.
Drugs are drugs. They're all fucking drugs, and they all fuck you up. Why does it matter what drug it is? We all do drugs for different reasons; escapes from reality, altering your perception, boredom...but it really doesnt matter what your doing, cause in the end, its really all the same.
I don't know. It's fucked up.

 

Truer words were never spoken.

 

Pple in general are scared of what they havnt tried. They see drugs like oxycontin and adderral as perfectly acceptable medications prescribed by doctors.

 

yeah man, and its bull. Opitates. YOu've got H, oxy, whatever, but what it comes down to, is it's all opiates.
But now SWIM is very fucked up, so i probably dont make sense anymore

 

Dude, I have been saying the same thing since I joined the forum, and many others before me have said it for years. Some people just don't seem to understand the concept of drugs and all that they entail. They believe that because "they only drink" or "they only smoke" that they are better people. Do what you want to do with your body, but don't ridicule others for doing the same. I don't smoke weed for the simple reason that I don't want to try it yet, but I do other stuff. I do not count myself as above a stoner in any way. Some people do that kind of thing, others don't. Not to say that because I have tried vicodin I would jump out and try Heroin, but people just need to chill and get out of everyone else's business. Kudos to the OP for his realization!

this thinking is flawed. it's a bit like saying "food is food, it doesn't matter if it's broccoli or pop-tarts, as long as it fills you up." now if you want to get fucked up, you can achieve the same mindlessness with many different drugs. To say that all drugs are the same in the end is to say that you only use drugs to deaden your awareness, to anesthetize yourself. many of us use specific drugs to achieve specific results.

You guys might look at a painter's arsenal of brushes and say "why so many? they're all brushes..." but to the painter each is a unique instrument intended help the painter express himself in subtly different but profound ways.

Or if you don't use drugs for uplifting or elevating ends,it might just be a source of enjoyment, similar to a wine connoisseur. Yes, each is alcohol in the end but to celebrate different vintages and flavors as an art form adds to the enjoyment of the substance.

Again it's all about what your purpose for taking the drug is. If you guys are interested in simply checking out that's fine it's one of the many wonderful uses of drugs, but just know there is more potential to them and more uses.

but i would have to agree that you can pretty much lump the opies together

 

That was a very good post above.

 

I agree with burnabowl. There are differences in drugs, and some are just all-around shittier; for your health, your future, what not. There is a lot of debate on the specifics of the spectrum of shit, but example most people would place marijuana somewhere near the good end, with meth somewhere near the bad end. General tendencies like this are mostly shared among the drug populace I think, minus exceptions, like methheads.

People who praise ritalin or any synthetic stuff and say coke is the devil are complete tools in my book. It's all garbage in that area of the spectrum!

And yeah, opes are all clustered together.

 

read mushroom man's sig.

but seriously, I believe the only group who has authority like that is potheads. smoking weed is like drinking coffee, that shit aint no drug.

 

Its not like coffee at all man. Weed turns you into a lazy fuck that melts into a couch with nothing to do in life..

 

exactly. How is anyone gonna compare that to a real drug like heroin or meth? Those shits destroy lives, weed enhances lives.

 

/theobromine/

 

Oxy, Kil0...yea you'r right, the OP (who is my sister btw) is trying to say that besides weed basically everything is just as bad as everything else...benzo withdrawls can kill you, opiate with drawls make you wish you were dead....drugs are drugs, i dont understand why some are more socially maccepted than others...

 

may I borrow your sister for a few minutes?

 

?

 

Unfortunately people downplay the power of weed. It is linked with mental illness, and anyone who has had a strong weed high will tell you it should not be placed with coffee or cigarettes, but closer to psilocybin and lsd.

 

well yeah, cannabis is sometimes labeled a mild hallucinogen, and is the safest high on earth, so I dont see the big deal about it and why niggas should go 2 jail over it.

 

This is correct, but the main thing that I believe most people are getting at is that if two people use drugs, then one should not ridicule the other for what drugs they use. One painter does not ridicule or look down upon another for using a smaller brush. I don't ridicule KiLo for eating broccoli because I believe cauliflower to be superior. The basic thing is that amongst people who use drugs, nobody should be telling another they are better because they use a different substance to get fucked up on. It even goes beyond that. The people who believe that anything "natural" is superior to anything synthetic have the same problem. Yes, LSD and Shrooms are different, but they are both ways to expand consciousness/numb yourself/forget your problems... you get the drift.

They are all drugs in the end, just like wine is all alcohol in the end. Enjoying them each in a unique way is definitely part of the experience, but it doesn't mean that the way you do it or the drug you prefer is superior to any other.

I agree; anyone who says that OC's are ok and Heroin is evil are both complacent and ignorant. Thats like saying beer is ok but liqour is not. I'm hopelessly addicted to OC at the moment (not cool) but i quit dope no problem when i realized i was doing it too much. Coke, however, i do believe is much worse than adderal just because of the addictive and damaging nature of the drug. But still, i always argue when people say pot isnt a drug...cuz it is, drugs are drugs, wheter it be PCP, THC, or alcohol.

The line seperating a crack head from a meth head is a fine one indeed.
