...but I don't know how to get any. I want to try some pot again. I think I only experienced it's effects once. I think I didn't inhale correctly or something the first few puffs.
Maybe I should buy some seeds and grow my own plant. I have no idea how to harvest it though. It might be fun, but how would I explain such an ugly plant to my parents? LOL
I want to have as much fun as possible when I'm not working. There is so little time for fun now. My feet hurt from standing around so long. Maybe I have flat feet or something. Maybe smoking some pot will take away my aches and pains from working.
I wish I could grow my own plant...it could be fun!...maybe stinky though. LOL Gotta get the female plants. Seeds are expensive. It isn't illegal to grow one or two plants is it? What if I just wanted to grow it to look at it or study it?
Any other drugs that I should try? I've tried alcohol...I don't like it, it makes my head feel wierd. I should try a hallucinogen...I don't know how to get magic mushrooms though. I don't have any friends who are into drugs. Acutally...I don't have any friends at all.

IMO, If you dont like the way alcohol makes you feel you are not going to like much of anything else.
do you like feeling out of control?
I can assure you that halucinating is not an enjoyable experience!
I find that when there is an insability emotionally it exacerbates the problem when you add things that are compoletely new to the bodies chemistry... Im not sure why you want to try drugs?
why try something you have never done before that could potentially hurt you?But weed isnt really a big deal....ask around school? its everywhere. and it may make your feet feel better, but so might a motrin or 2 :-)
>> think I only experienced it's effects once. I think I didn't inhale correctly or something the first few puffs.
did you inhale and hold your breath? thats the key! BTW I am NOT endorsing the use of marijuana
Why not try to make friends with the people at the astronomy club? I find those natural highs...although they dont come easliy but they are the best....not injecting your body with crap. stay clean.. Im watching a person die from screwing with thier body its really unpleasant!

....in why you want to try drugs so much? youve posted this before, I just wonder...since there are many people hear who are struggling with repercussions of trying things and we hear about it all over how bad it is for you. What is glorifying it for you?

hi, rainbowbrite. I keep seeing this "hmmm" msg on these boards. What's that supposed to mean? I have learned that I am really thick as the proverbial brick. But why the heel [civility, always civility] do people use it? To clear their brain, or nasal passages, or is it a sort of elementary judgement thing. For example, nobody uses "harumph" or "ahem, ahem" or "tsk, tsk" Anyway I'm just miffed tonite or goin off the tracks with my crazy train. I want my vodka and I want it now but I don't want to go get it. anyway, cockeyed.

I think it is because I just want to try new things. I want to experience all that I can experience in life. I want to know why drugs are so appealing to people. I know better than to try drugs that are addicting though. Also, I guess I just want to find a drug for me to escape life sometimes when it gets dreary or unbearable.
I'm also very interested in psychosis and hallucinations. I would like to experience it first-hand to understand it.

cool! thanks for clearing that up. Also just thought Id mention there are soooo many things to experience in life and only a few of them are substances....
>I want to know why drugs are so appealing to people. Also, I guess I just want to find a drug for me to escape life sometimes when it gets dreary or unbearable.
How 'bout taking up an extreme sport?? that gives huge rushes! See i feel like I read a post of yours in which you wrote something about how awful your experience was etc etc and you would never experiement again..
But in any case I hope you find the drug/escape you are seeking....
>I know better than to try drugs that are addicting thoughOh thats good!
>I'm also very interested in psychosis and hallucinations. I would like to experience it first-hand to understand it.Ok then go for the mushrooms, geez Im quite tempted to send you some and hear what you thought.

I don't like alchohol much. I drink. I want to feel higher. I drink some more. I want to feel higher. I drink some more I throw up. Whats the point? It just doesn't do it for me.
I had to smoke pot a couple times before I felt the full effect. I think it takes your brain a little bit of time to 'hook into' the effects.
Ditto with most of the other stuff I've tried.
I JUST LOVE MUSHIES!!!
(I am not endorsing the taking of mushies).
But...
They are dangerous.
You can feel so amazing
Or you can live your worst nightmares.
And you never can tell...
And trips can just turn...
But a good trip is (IMO) the most awesome experience I've ever had (oh, with a little speed thrown in as well).But...
If you understand what is so bloody terrific about drugs
Then you understand what is so bloody addictive about drugs.
Because (psychologically) it is the same thing.

Deneb - although i ahve never tried speed, meth, crank - crystally powder type stuff, i have tried LSD, shrooms, marijuana, X-tasy and you know they are all altered states that can cause irreversible damage - for me they may ahve been exciting at the time but now i look abck and wish i would have pursed more prosperious things like education, drugs aren't going to get you anywhere,. The high is temporary, once you try them it isn't easy to break the cycle to stop, especially if you ahve the addictive personallity, i began drinking in my teens, but by the time i was of legal age to drink i realized i didn't really like throwing up so much and i couldn't control it, one drink always led to another then another then another, my dad was an alcholic so i knew if i continued, one day i would be too. My point to you is, life has so much more to offer, find what you are good at, what you like to do and foster that.you say you want to try drugs or something - try the something and let that something be some thing postitive. Oh yeah, and BTW - One plant can send you to jail,(at least in Cali) no matter what your reason for growing it, i know from experience. And cultivation is a felony - which can seriously F**K up your employment opportunities for the future. You want a high, a rush, hike to the mountains where the air is thin - that gives you a good head rush, going sky diving bungy jumping - it will cost just as much as you would eventually end up spending on the drugs, becasue they aren't that cheap. MAke a difference in someones life - make your parents proud - be thankful for what you have, your brain cells, your health, your family, etc. My mom was killed by a drunk driver a year and a half ago, my died in open heart surgery 11 years ago and now my parents are gone, i am not proud of the drugs i used, and if you decide to use i don't think it will amke you proud either. Peace.

> I want to have as much fun as possible when I'm not working.
This is the part of your post that made me feel dual emotions sadness/inspiration
Sadness - You have no idea how much "fun" I have had in my life and how little real fun I am having now because of that. All I want is to be like the other people I know who feel comfortable in their own skin, and confident enough to talk to people. My perception is so skewed now, and I feel I have all my old "FUN" to blame. I want to be addiction free, I want all the money I spent on "fun" back, and I want all the guilt gone.
Inspiration - I am inspired to make you feel differently, but more often then not people have to learn from their own mistakes. I wish you could spend five minutes of your life inside my head. Then you would know that fun is not found in drugs.
