why?

It's something to do when you're with friends -- It's a social thing for a lot of people. And also the way it makes you feel. Silly, carefree.

So you can't feel silly and carefree without help like that?

I just don't understand that part of it all.

and ... you use this stuff in social situations because ... why? To relax? And why do you need the help to relax? Or you smoke/drink/whatever because everyone else around you is doing so? You're too inhibited without using this stuff? So, in other words, without the use of these aids, you're not yourself? You're faking it all the time, until you drink/smoke? Or you are yourself without the smoking/drinking, and you'd rather not be, so you smoke/drink to become someone you're not?

for me, i drink just to go out and have a good time.
and it's not like i can't have a good time without drinking, and it's not that i have to drink to have a good time, and it's not that i'm inhibited when i don't drink (because trust me, i'm not) and it's not because of any of that stuff.
honestly, i just want to go out and let loose and have a good time, i'm young, i'm living my life. i go out and have fun without drinking all the time! but sometimes i go out and choose to drink and still have fun.

i can't give you one solid reason as to why i drink, i just do it. i do it to have fun, to socialize, to let loose, etc.

No, I can act silly and carefree normally. In fact, most people think I'm always high xD But I guess I can't give you a solid reason why, either. I think it's something you would have to have experienced.

Doing drugs of any kind is stupid and will eventually kill you, (except Medication you have to take that is subscribed by your doctor to get better or whatever). There is so much more to life than doing drugs.

sometimes marijuana is prescribed by a doctor.

Wrong. Just because it's prescribed by a doctor doesn't mean it can't kill you.
It's all about how much is taken and what other drugs it's taken with. (IE chemical reactions) Chemo almost killed me, and it was prescribed by a doctor. I was almost prescribed marijuana at one point too.

Never have tried them, and never will.
Our drinking age is 21, here in Michigan. Too many drunk-driving accidents happen here, and if it was lowered to 18, more immature kids will get in some major trouble, even taking away more lives. I can just predict that.
Drugs are disgusting. I agree, I don't see how doing drugs makes you "cool." I personally, think they just make you look like a fool.

I don't drink (yet...i'm actually waiting until i'm 21...shocking I know), i dont smoke and i dont do drugs.

I cannot and will not ever be friends with anyone who does drugs. I have a few friends who smoke cigarettes and i think they're idiots for doing so and i relaly don't hang out with them anymore ebcause 1) I odnt like to be around it 2) I cant breath when I'm around people smoking

My grandma, grandpa and aunt died from lung cancer becasue of smoking
3 relatives adn 2 friends were killed by drunk drivers

I have issues with even smoking cigaretters and people getting drunk so i wouldnt even consider any other drugs to be remotely okay

the other day in psychology, a girl sitting in the front row of a 600 seat lecture hall (right in front of me) was drinking alcohol out of a water bottle. the whole section smelled like it. i just don't understand why they COME TO CLASS and keep drinking.

to get buzzed so after class they can get completly toasted. not saying its a good thing to do but its w.ever

And people overdose on prescribed medication a lot too. I've heard of so many people who have overdosed on anti-depressants.

Smoking and drugs are disgusting. I know a lot of kids at school who come to class (when they actually come) stoned and they always look awful.

Drugs destroy the mind in so many ways; I don't get why people think it's fun to take them.

I ttly agree! Personally Im against smoking and drugs comepletely. I knew a guy who got expelled from the school district for doing pot on campus. He regrets it comepletely. DDD!!!

 

[disneyworldluvr349]

I have never had a drink, never smoked a cigarette, never smoked pot, and never done illegal drugs.

I just don't see the point. Especially when you see all of the damage they cause.
