We tend to get into trouble when our overactive minds aren't being stimulated.

My drug issues have thus far been limited to depressants, which I started using because of sleep issues.

But lately I've been considering doing the opposite, E in particular. It sounds like fun. I'm just so bored right now overall, it seems like something to do. But I have virtually no social life, and it's not the kind of thing you'd do by yourself.

At any rate, if anyone had ever told me as a teenager or adult in my early 20s that I would ever do any sort of drugs I would have laughed in their face.

I buy myself a Monster to liven up the evening once a week, when I don't have to work the next day. I have an instant coffee first and than I eat an energy drink slushie that's been in my freezer.

Did them all when I was a kid/teenager if you can control yourself and keep it on limited basis I personally see nothing wrong with it.

But out of them all They only ones I would do again are:

Acid
E
shrooms

Those are the ones I really learned a lot while doing everything else when I look back on it was just destructive behavior and some escapism because in reality no one seemed to understand me while I was sober. I smoked weed a whole bunch for a couple of years, just recently stopped. Nothing that I have anything against it but it was just getting 1) too expensive and 2) the more and more I smoked alone the more and more I saw myself just sitting around smoking, again escapism. I'm just now back on top of my life and holding down the fort, beginning to see signs of advancement in all areas of my life. Probably end up getting my medical card again soon as the occasional smoke session can be very helpful with the right people or when I need to shut my mind down and go to sleep. I wouldn't advise getting into drugs just because your bored. If thats the case teach yourself to meditate it much more beneficial.

That has played a role in some of my drug use for sure.....otherwise its extreme curiousity like with acid, I wanted to try that ever since I was 16 because of my obsession with Pink Floyd. Other then that I regularly use cannabis to make my depression and anxiety less severe.......and because music sounds even more awesome in that state of mind. Drinking is good for when I just want to get my mind off things and enjoy myself.

But even though I have done all that and more, and do not plan on going totally sober......I don't nessisarly recommend getting into any drugs it is a personal choice. But for anyone planning to use drugs I recommend they research any drug they want to do before doing it.....as it is good to know the possible negative side effects, how to minimize a bad experiance and all of that.

Better not, drugs are dangerous and shouldn't be used as toy.
