Have you ever taken drugs? Are you currently a user of drugs? What drugs? Which drugs do you like? What good or bad experiences have you had on drugs? Do you think drugs should be legal for personal use? Should we have stricter drug laws?
This thread is for all things drug.
Yes. Yes. Caffeine, alcohol, cannabis. Several. Many and varied. Yes. No.

Same but add nicotine
Unpopular opinion but party drugs are the best. Better than blow.
Montreal is a great drug city but it's also where the trend of lacing blow with fentanyl started a decade ago, which kinda prejudiced me against nose candy
Weed is great fun but people constantly lie to themselves about not being addicted when they absolutely are
Also some of the more recent weed strains are ridiculously strong. I smoked a joint in Portland this summer that blew me the fuck away
I think I liked it better before the formal legalization of weed in Canada, when it was de facto legal for years and everyone smoked in public but you didn't have all those dispensaries with cute names and "weed culture" that sprouted everywhere after the formal legalization. Fuck that
I like weed, alcohol, psychedelics and MDMA the best but I'll try anything once.

Honestly, most things are better than blow.

I really want to try heroin.
I don't currently do anything non-prescription. I used to do weed and alcohol and had a nasty amphetamine problem between 2011 and 2016, which I detailed in the addiction thread. I stopped puffing in 2021 and stopped drinking in January of this year.
I've also done a couple hallucinogens in my college days. I did salvia once and I was the road. Like, cars were driving over me and I grappled with the existential crisis of being the road. Never again.
Just weed and booze and I don't use any of those today. But culture here also isn't nearly as obsessed with drugs as general American culture seems to be. At least not yet.

Basically I agree but some people really love it.
has anyone else ever smoked angel dust
Yeah mate they reckon about 3% of over 25s in the USA have used it, there's even a Wikipedia page on it.
I know my dad did it for a bit back in the 70s.
Any of y'all dabbled in krokodil?

My drug CV goes like this:
Cannabis
Cocaine
Speed
Magic mushrooms
Ecstasy
Diazepam
Everything other than cannabis I only did like three times.
cocaine is the larry bird of stimulants
Dunno whether that's good or not but I never touched it again after I was up all night drinking rum and snorting coke, went to bed at about 10am and had to take my cousin to play football at 11am, I didn't get back until about 6pm.
I felt like death the entire time. I think I slept for 24 hours straight when I got in.

i never liked it but are you sure what you were snorting was pure
i think it might be the worst drug in terms of balance - the high imo is very mediocre and the costs and risks are huge
the larry bird thing is white coffee

Pure? As in 100% coke? No course not. It would be filled with shit.
Agree about balance.

This article estimates that UK street coke is at an all time high of about 60% purity these days. But it has been as low as 3-9%.
I would expect any coke I sniffed to be closer to the latter than former, as it was over 15 years ago and I am now very good and wouldn't touch any of this stuff.
