| I know this is an ignorant statement, but if you believe that Marijuana is worse than alcohol, than you need to be shot. Just because something is illegal doesn't make it bad. If driving a car was illegal...would it be bad? |

Definately not an ignorant statement :) Albeit a little harsh, but still the evidence does say that Drinking and smoking are really bad for you, weed is bad for you but at least its not as bad... |

| Well the strange thing is...Most of the perscription drugs out on the market today are worse for your body than some illegal drugs. Such as a drug they give depressed people, the name slips my mind, but it causes people to have strokes and heart problems. The government says that that drug is fine to give to people but they forced ALL of the efferts to getting Ecstasy off the streets, when their are no PROVEN serious complications or long term effects on the body. Last year i think their was 6-9 deaths caused by Ecstasy. And that was either caused by fake Ecstasy or someone taking WAY to much. I read on Ecstasy.org that to over dose on Ecstasy the average person would have to eat around 20 pills at once. Considering you can DIE from taking 10 extra strength Tylenol, what does that have to say? |

| i used to say that weed is better than alcohol, but if u've smoked it as much as i did, then u'll know that the long term effects of weed are just depressing. i can't remember any more, and i don't feel as "on the ball" as i used to. it sux and that's why i quit smoking it. drinking is just dangerous at the time when ur drunk. that's my view point. i am starting to turn anti-drugs cuz they just mess u up. i don't give a if ppl say, "oh u can't die from 'e'" or "e is a safe drug bla bla bla" drugs are in drugs and they will eventually u up...everyone needs to get high on in LIFE...that's what i say. it's just like that drug free commercial when u see the match get lit up and then the flame dies out and it says, "drugs get u lit....then they burn u out" it couldn't be any more true. |

Tylenol is a horrible drug!! It is HIGHLY toxic. If u take more than the recomended dosage, u could very easily die. That will kill your liver, which will in turn slowly kill you. horrible death, and so easy to OD. especially cuz people treat over the counter drugs like candy. example
'hmm..it says take 1 every 4 hours, not to exceded 6 in one day. Well my head really hurts, so Ill take 2 every 4 hours. ..that could very easily kill u!'
*goes lookin for texts to show other household, over the counter drugs that are toxic, but sold anyways. |

I truly sorry that you've had such bad experience, I sicerely hope you stay clean and things go well for you :)
But I have to say this, hope you don't get mad at me :)
You've had a bad experience with drugs, obviously you have either an addictive personality or were using drugs for the wrong reasons.
If an recovering alcoholic says to me stop drinking, look what it did to me, I take that with a grain of salt. The majority of drug and alcohol users aren't addicts, they handle it fine.. So why should I for example stop using drugs, when I have no addictions, I'm carefull, and it has little effect on my life.
If you want people to stop doing drugs, we need to remove much of perscription drugs out there... In the last 10 years so many more perscription drugs have been approved that would never have been given a chance before.... The side effects and dangers of so many over the counter drugs today are quite scary. Looking at the side effects of weed I can honestly say picking on the sacred herb is silly when the country is addicted to pharmicuticals!
I myself don't smoke weed often, I enjoy my whiskey once in a while, Exctacy every few months, and magic mushrooms every once in a while.. How can you tell me that I should stop for my own good :) I'm carefull responsible, and I know all my friends are as well. My roomate is chronic, he smokes weed almost every day, but he has a good job, and I don't see him having memory problems ever.. He's sharp at his job, and other than when he's high, hes no worse off for using weed.
Besides, I'd love to hear anyone tell me that Mushrooms are bad for me, because they aren't... So why should I stop them?
If you are going to become anti-drug, thats cool, but don't you think its unfair that you tell others who do drugs responsibly that they are wrong since it didn't go well for you? |

| i did drugs for the wrong reasons...and i've seen too many ppl die from them (two of my friends) and i'm just overall burnt out now. but it's cool...everyone go do drugs, they're good for you...they have vitamin c in them:stongue: |

I'm not sure what the ratio is, but it's something like 7 out of every 10 people have addictive personalities. Those are the people that shouldn't use drugs, because they abuse them. Those are the people that have so much trouble saying no. Such as the kids that come down from rolling and they take another to get themselves back up because they don't feel good anymore. They have no self control over their drugs. Theirfore they are drugs abusers, not drug user's.
I agree with Thor 100% i couldn't have said it better myself. |

i agree somewhat...i know ppl like that big time...but they are in denial. i have taken another pill to bring me back up like u said, but not like every time...for the most part, when i would start to come down, i would do the opposite and take a xanax so i could just spare myself from sitting up and having that cracked out feeling and just pass out and call it a night. i might have an addictive personality, but i dunno. i think it is the same ....people who take drugs for the wrong reasons (like to forget probs, etc.) obviously keep taking them for that reason so that makes them addicted. all i'm saying is everyone in here is always preaching like, "oh i only take drugs once a month or i only do it to kick back once in a while, bla bla bla..." people who smoke weed regularly or roll or trip or pop pills all the time and feel like they can't go to a rave/club without em, has a problem. i know this cuz that's how i was. i am just making some major changes in my life right now and i am just saying that i wish all the threads in here wouldn't be about in drugs..this is supposed to be TRANCEaddict. and well i care about u people to a certain point...and i say "certain point" cuz well, i don't REALLY know you all, but most of you seem cool and i am just trying to give u guys good advice, but if u wanna act like u are better than that...like, "oh, well maybe YOU had that problem, but i don't, so thanks anyway" well then fine. and that IS basically what u guys mean, i can read between the lines...
and what i said above was NOT directed to anyone...like all of u who do drugs in here have problems..that's not was i was saying. i was just saying that i'm done with drugs and i wish everyone would be. and i mean the hard like coke, acid, and "e" weed to me doesn't count, even though i quit smoking it. |
