Oh, and the coke thing. Bars in Peterborough have taken to applying petroleum jelly to the backs of toilets (if they have tanks) or on the toilet-paper dispenser. |
No way - in Peterborough?! |

It's great to get your priorities in perspective before expanding your mind through drugs.

But I have a question. What do you guys think is "acceptable" use of drugs? One pill once a month...two pills once every two months? A gram of coke every few weeks between a buddy or two? What is pushing the limit? I mean...for example, my ex gf almost flipped when I told her casually that I had "experimented" a bit into drugs but from my perspective, I've hardly been exceeding saftey levels. But I also have a friend (not close but we're buddies) who purchases an 8 ball every week or two. To me, that seems a bit much and not just the money factor. My point is that every time you see some people who might be going overboard, there's always people who are way worse off. |
I think you bring up some good points and questions.
Are some drugs more 'acceptable' while others are not? Certainly. Do I personally think some drugs are 'less risky' than others? For sure. Of course every drug has potential for abuse, even the more 'acceptable' drugs. But I see people who turn every weekend into one reeeallly lonnng dayyyy week after week after week, going sleep deprived for days on end, watching people prioritize spending money & time on weekend benders over more important necessities or fun outings, doing heavy drugs at home just for the sake of doing drugs cuz they're there or out of boredom, or going out of their way to take days off work just so you can use that night as an excuse to stay home and get wasted and invading everyday life, and seeing people you care about do drugs you thought they'd never touch a few months ago.....its scary.
Obviously, we can't make anyone stop. Each person has to stop or take control at their own pace. But sometimes all it takes is a little word with them to turn that lightbulb on... |

I would suggest that "acceptable" is a highly liquid term. To me, I would view drug use as being acceptable if the following conditions are met:
1) drug use does not create problems with daily life
2) drug use does not create problems with family/friends/loved ones
3) user can afford the substances consumed without appreciable impact on higher priorities
4) user understands the drug and dangers associated with it's use and takes all reasonable steps to insulate themselves from said dangers
5) the intention of the user is to enhance experiences rather then distract from dealing with other problems
6) user is in control of their consumption rather then the other way around

That is a pretty bold statement. I don't think anyone can say that about themselves. Just my $0.02
