You guys know what I mean, quit trolling. I just think that it's ridiculous you guys need to get high in order to be happy. Why not go hang with friends, or play video games, OR EVEN MEDITATE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. Drugs get you addicted and any sort of addiction isn't really good...

No one said they need to get high to be happy, it's ridiculous that you'd post that. It's just a fun activity to do sometimes. I hang out with friends whenever I smoke weed. Why's it worse than video games? The drugs I'm interested in aren't addictive, at least physically. (if you want to talk about psychological addiction, it's akin to playing video games a lot)

you guys need to understand that not every drug is heroin

There is of course the risk of bad trips, which could mark you forever, then you could receive damages in some brain regions I'm not actually able to translate, too complicated names


Haha well, I have to admit, your ability to form opinions about something you can't even translate is remarkable on its own. Not to mention the way you present those opinions as if you have any fucking idea what you're talking about. I'm having a hard time understanding how the human mind is capable of deceiving itself so blatantly.

LSD activates 5-HT serotonin receptors after crossing the blood brain barrier. These receptors are responsible for regulating an extremely large number of subjective cognitive functions such as mood, memory, perception, and hundreds of others.

The cerebral cortex is where many of these functions are carried out. The effects LSD has on this area of the brain are temporary and non-toxic: "It is physiologically well tolerated and there is no evidence for long-lasting physiological effects on the brain or other parts of the human organism." To say there's any risk of permanent physical damage from the use of LSD is pure conjecture and an obvious display of ignorance on your part.

By the way I don't think something make you have allucinations is a good thing, do as you wish.


This is purely a negative reaction to the unfamiliar. You assume it's bad because you've never experienced it. Most of what you've heard about drugs is negative, so lacking any personal positive experiences with them, you assume it's true.

The people disagreeing with you are ones who have actually had these experiences you're so quick to label as "dangerous". What does that tell you? How can you possibly believe you know something we don't? It's the exact opposite.

I think it's ridiculous that you believe this is even remotely true. Where are you getting the idea that we "need" to get high for anything? It's not anything we define ourselves by. Beyond smoking pot and drinking beer, I haven't taken a single hallucinogenic in over a year. I don't plan on doing it ever again. That doesn't mean I don't think it offers something extremely positive if you're compatible with the type of experiences they offer.

Drugs are not a replacement for these things. Your assumption that they are is, again, an obvious display of ignorance that's completely foreign to me. I can't understand why you're even posting here. To believe the sort of things you're saying are true, you need to be so fucking clueless that any sensible, equally-ignorant person would recognize they're incapable of forming an actual opinion on the topic. Yet here you are lecturing me on a topic that I understand at a level you're not even close to. Not to act elitist, but seriously, you're making yourself sound like a fucking idiot.

Grow up and read about what drugs actually do, and how they affect the body and brain. Take your uninformed bullshit somewhere else, your current audience knows better.

You can develop a psychological addiction to virtually any activity. This is not an argument against drugs specifically, or anything, really.

Whatever, you guys can continue with this. I just don't think that it's right to get high.

You really want me back in conversation? Lol. Ok I admit, no I haven't experienced it and I don't know what it's like. Also, the reason why I say drugs aren't good because, well yes my parents say so, and also because everyone I know says so.

way to have a mind of your own. though everyone I know thinks marijuana and alcohol is good— woah holy shit I was thinking about saying 'where do you live, utah?' and then I looked at your location.

Drugs don't get you addicted. Having no self control gets you addicted. You can do cocaine or any drug that has a reputation for being addictive once and never touch it again if you have any sort of self control.

You should just quit talking about things you don't have any idea about.

I just tried to masturbate and it was the worst fap of my life; I got the worst headache of my life and it just blared whenever I started jacking my dick. I could barely see the porn because I kept squeezing my eyes shut from the pain. It was miserable. I still came though.


I hate when that happens. :(

GUYS QUICK

I don't know why, and I don't think it makes sense, but apparently I can get hooked up with shrooms. But I can still also get LSD.

WHICH ONE!??! I said shrooms, but I can probably still change it if I send a text today. Is it really a spiritual experience that makes you learn more about yourself? Does LSD also do that?

edit: (also, I think the reason for this fluctuation of availability is that my friend is just lying based on which drug he decides he wants me to buy, and changed his mind a couple times. I don't mind though)

It is exactly this kind of reaction. But even if I've never experienced drugs I know many people who did (but not only with LSD) and as I said before, some of them are a bit airhead. This is enough for me to not take the risk.
About the thing of translate, well, it's not very easy to translate technical terms in another lenguage, and it wasn't absolutely necessary, so I didn't.
You have a very haughty way of talking, don't you?

I must admit I'm curious about LSD... How could be to lose the perception of myself? And all those allucinations... it must be amazing!

And you think the drugs made them "airheads"? Reread my post if you want an explanation why that makes no sense. Plenty of idiots do drugs, that doesn't say anything about the drugs themselves.

That was mostly a reaction from the things that other idiot was saying, not so much you. I'm not a fan of generalized, uninformed assumptions, or being criticized based off of them. That kinda sets me off. Seeing you mention brain damage didn't help.

My mommy says drugs are bad.

Keep posting more so I can pretend to have a life filled with drugs and spiritual experiences instead of truth, which is a life filled with schoolwork and lonely Friday nights.

so i guess when i smoke a bowl with friends while playing video games it doesn't count just because weed is in the equation. then again, you are from utah and asking a mormon to not act like a total mormon is like asking the pope not to approe of child rape
