we're going on a trip
 
there hasn't been one of these in a while so let's talk about drugs.

do you do drugs/have you done drugs in the past? what have you tried?
for those who haven't done drugs have you considered trying anything? what would you try if drugs were risk free?

The only 'drugs' I do are the ones prescribed to me. However, I wouldn't mind giving medical marijuana a try. I heard a lot of good things about it too, but I'm not sure how or if it would work for a person with mental health issues like what I have. :/ I really want to find some other ways to relieve a lot of my excessive anxiety I get because there are times when my anxiety can become disabling. Little things like talking to a new friend on Facebook or walking out my front door impact my life every single day. That's how bad my anxiety can get, even with the current medicine we have today, there is still no way for me to conquer my anxiety. I've tried other things such as music (which helps, but I can't listen to it 24/7, or I'd miss out on something important) and other things I can't really think of right now.

I do take prescribed meds to help about 40 to 50% of my anxiety, but it doesn't get rid of them completely. I'd be more worried over taking more for the anxiety too because I'd be terrified of becoming some kind of zombie who doesn't feel anything.

...sorry for rambling. But yeah.

My brain is already messed up enough as is. I don't need to take something that will make it even more messed up. The drug I take is to fix it and put the stupid thing back into a semi-normal place. Basically, I'm like pikadots above. Crazy anxiety, and the pills just don't do enough to get rid of it. My dose is rather low though, because medicine tends to affect me a bit too heavily. It's been slowly increasing over the years.

Also, I don't have any interest in marijuana, even though I've been offered multiple times. The smell is... really foul to me.

I only do the 'drugs' that are prescribed to me, as in my antidepressants. Also I used to smoke but I don't anymore. I want to smoke weed someday but eventually, i will after i get off my medicine.

how much variation on this topic do you think you're going to get on a pokémon forum

little interest on recreational drugs so far but when i can be bothered to do so, i'd like to try various hallucinogenics around other people.
as for the obvious subject of weed, i'll probably end up smoking it this year given that my friends smoke it around me pretty frequently, i just haven't bothered to Spark It Up! myself/on my own

Ive smoked weed quite a few times but could never really get into it because the high was never that good for me. I guess my head is just too messed up/paranoid to feel the benefits.

Never taken anything harder, never really had any interest in doing so.

Alex March 31st, 2016 2:11 PM

Smoked weed on and off for years... the novelty was lost on me after the first few months but it still become a part of my 'persona' lol... i swear i wasn't on the level of h3h3 #vapenation tho. But I've found it really makes my anxiety act up, i get into a feedback loop of negative thought that makes me wonder why I smoke in the first place. I've been off the stuff since mid-January or so. I guess I'd like to stay clean but really I should stop smoking "just because". Maybe once in a while with friends it would be fine.

Also I took mushrooms and that was fun, but very exhausting on the mind. I'd be willing to do it again maybe, and try acid, but that's probably as far as I'd take it.

I've always had people smoke it around me whether it be friends from high school or even some of my cousins and it's just never interested me. I've tried it once or so but it just makes me feel kinda sick and I don't enjoy it. That's not to say I won't ever try weed again but it's not something I ever really think about, even when around it.

Never tried any other drugs though.

Jessie March 31st, 2016 6:00 PM

I don't even take "normal" medicines like Tylenol or whatnot, so no, I would never try recreational drugs.

Sothis March 31st, 2016 8:10 PM

I smoked 1 weed and was never the same

Sammi April 1st, 2016 8:45 PM

Smoked weed once at a work party (all my coworkers smoked it). It was fun to try and to say I've done it, but since it's illegal in my state, it's not something I'd ever do again.
Basically my philosophy on trying drugs is I don't because it's illegal and I don't want to get in legal trouble. Getting drunk is satisfying enough.

I used to drink somewhat regularly but now it's really sporadic. Maybe once every 2-3 months, if that. I managed to blackout drinking at home with mixed drinks... yeah I've just had hard cider at home since then. Also alcohol doesn't agree with me as well as it used to. I know that's not really "drugs" in terms of the topic shh :p

I guess I've technically abused painkillers before, in that I've taken some moderate painkillers that were prescribed to other people. Nothing too hardcore, dangerous, or addicting.

Bellsprout April 1st, 2016 9:03 PM

weed, addy, salvia, xanax, percs, people do a lot of pills in this area. coke is big too, but i don't want to get caught up in coke as i've met too many people who have gotten into it and by what i hear i think i would love it so i need to avoid. all i do now is smoke weed, that was just an experimental phase. though one day i'd like to try shrooms

gimmepie April 2nd, 2016 2:44 AM

Aside from prescribed meds nope. I have no desire to not be in control of my own actions.

To another dimension

Belinda April 2nd, 2016 8:27 PM

I've abused narcotics before but that was at one of my lowest points in my life. Funny thing is they were prescribed to me. If I ever feel depressed I'd rather drink alcohol anyways, though I've always been curious about other drugs. I know some family members do weed but I never wanted to try it.

Palamon April 2nd, 2016 8:39 PM

I'm too scared to even take aspirin. No way in hell am I rolling up weed and smoking it.

Cay April 3rd, 2016 6:20 PM

I was sedated once for medical reasons but that doesnt really count lmao. Xanax, weed, shrooms, and acid are pretty popular around here. Never really tried anything (as i am very small) but id like to smoke weed one day. Most of my friends do nowadays so i dont see why not. Only problem is my parents are pretty much Drug Detectors™ so id get caught if i interacted with them at all. I really would hate to be addicted, though.

Purist of Black Water April 3rd, 2016 6:25 PM

Did weed a few times. Messed me up. (past tense) (I was also on prescription medication at the time this happened as well FYI)
But then again, I am already messed up enough xD

seriously though, I am not against someone who does drugs.
just don't get me involved lol

all I ask.
