Drugs have indeed made me a better person....

As a kid I was very rebellious, annoying, back-talked any authority figure I
could, I wouldnt do a thing my parents told me and would fight(verbal and physical) people all the time for little stupid reasons, one time I hit my grandmother(I know bad right). But around 9th grade i started smoking bud and soon after in 10th and 11th, I started to do LSD, Shrooms, and MDMA as well. around that time, I became more a laid-back more likable person. I definently respected my parents more, and I do nice things for people all the time for no reason. I found myself fighting less, I also found myself becoming more social and getting LOTS of new friends. I still talk-back from time to time(I still dont take shit from anyone) but i dont do that my relatives. anyway I'm high right now and was just thinking about what drugs have done for me and decided to post this. I dont care if you post a reply to this or not, I just wanted to share this. I'm just sick and tired of the way the media puts such a negative image on drugs like that. of coarse I only plan on sticking with these drugs because I don't think meth, crack, and heroin would have anything positive to give me.
I have tried coke but didn't like it, the high itself was fine but it didnt last very long and I felt crappy afterwards, plus its way too expensive. another reason I do the drugs I do is because I love music and those drugs make it more enjoyable.



BTW dont do GHB, I just tried that and it sucks. The high last about 2 hours and you dont feel good, you just feel..."impaired", plus it's extremely dangerous.

 

Drugs have made me a better person, although they've also distanced me from others, unlike you.

 

Psilocybin mushrooms made me a better person. None of the others, really. But I haven't tried that much.

I think you may have a few things out of line on your theory. Don't get me wrong drugs are awesome, but I wouldn't attribute your life changes to drugs 100% .I don't doubt that drugs can change a persons life, (for better or for worse) but I think around that time 9th / 10th grade, regardless of drug use, most young males go into fast forward in terms of maturity.

I know I did. I mean I still enjoy a good fart joke, and laugh at retarded shit all the time, but I just do it at more appropriate times. Not sure if this is all making sense because I'm pretty high right now, but I think it kind of did.

 

sort of the same situation with me
i hated myself and pretty much everything... i never had any friends before high school except this one chick and a few others i would hang out with occasionally. i didn't really know who i was, i just figured get good marks, go to university, then make lots of money and buy nice things. it felt like i was just watching my life fly by without having a reason for even being alive
then i started smoking weed and i changed as a person, i became more comfortable with myself and became more outgoing. i started making more friends, started smoking more dope, doing shrooms, acid, E and salvia, and eventually BOOM.
I'm Lauren fucking Foote.
Now everyone knows me, and they know me for being ME.
and i'm happy. but my head is all fucked up. too many thoughts, too much going on. too much shit i can't even begin to get into because i get headaches thinking about it.
i can't get close to others except that one chick i've known since grade 3. I can chill, laugh and joke for hours on end with almost anyone, but i can't get emotionally close to them.
i love my friends, don't get me wrong... but besides that chick... i know most friends i meet won't be for life. i didn't grow up with them... i don't know what makes them who they are. and a bunch of other shit and reasons i have trouble sorting through in my mind. usually only comes together when I'm high...

 

ive only smoked weed, but... when i was young i wasnt overly social, just had my little circle of friends and stuff. then hitting high school, went into social mode, trying to be outgoing and all that. once at university i started chilling out again, hanging out once in a while with a fairly small group of people. its not bad, i love being alone and i like being around other people every once in a while too. like different kinds of entertainment sorta.

weed probably had an influence in that, but i wouldnt say it made me better or worse... if anything happened i prolly did it myself.

 

dudes, ps: sonata arctica owns

 

drugs have barely changed me at all. i was always rebellious, free-thinking... and i chose to do drugs after i knew the risks. i preached the freedom to use drugs safely before i had ever even smoked weed.

it's given me a new way of partying, thats about it.

 

cannabis has given me quite a few different perspectives at different times... I'll never forget the time that my face melted in the mirror. that was one of those things that fucked my world up. but i guess you learn from shit

 

Yes!
when i was in grade 8 i was sorta a depressed kid, who was always kinda upset and pissed off. i used to listen to heavy metal music , now i listen to reggae, psycodelic rock, and easy listening music kinda a 360 turn on my life but i love it.. im more of a relaxed person, i met alot of cool people learned alot about life.

 

Well I dont know if drugs have made me a "better person" because of all the trouble I have gotten in while on drugs. But I will admit drugs open you to more social groups and you will probably become more chill. You know its kinda weird to hang out with those freinds though if you arent doing drugs...........
