Get a life, or at least get a hobby .... may I recommend a small indoor grow room.

Word man this guys a loser!!! go drink your legal beer n leave us stoners alone in the famous lines of bob saget "You every suck dick for marijuana?" haha no thank you now thats an addiction!!!

I signed up on these forums because I smoke ganj and I lurk all the time. So what the fuck is the problem with having a college level essay in the correct section of the forum??

I agree hard drugs can ruin lives my gf of 4.5 yrs lost her brother to herione fuck that shit anybody that even deals with that stuff is a loser marijuana is different should not be labeled a "hard drug" or "gateway" drug I tried cocaine before I smoked pot or cigarettes!!!

My problem was looking for a cheap escape from the pressures of daily life. I to started abusing other substances before I tried marijuana. I would drink robitussin, take bennadryll, and do duster way before I even had my first puff of ganj.

Yep I know the feeling growing up in with shitty parents and bad friends....a way to excape reality

My parents were actually there for me but I still turned out to be bad apple. I chose "the life" over everything.

I more so got pushed into it head on got the boot when I was 15

At age fifteen I had been expelled from school for possesion of cocaine, arrested for driving a stolen car while under the the influence of an illegal substance, completely addicted to ciggarretts and constantly paranoid that the cops were out to get my black ass. Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

haha sounds like me parents found 3zips and about 400 zanny bars in my room that was at 15 wow....glad ive straightened up.....at least a little!!! haha

dude. i personally was hospitalized from an overdose of xanax and various other pills i snorted. i really never cared what the drug was as long as i got high. i have worked all my life and supported myself all my life. i fucked up my credit and am now slowly paying it off. my drug addiction got really bad when i dropped out of college. i started doing alot of ice and pills. there was one night i was trippin on pink elephants and smoked a shit ton of crack then drove to a friends house. anything other than pot is really really bad for you. the drug itself may not kill you. the decisions you make while on them though more than likely will.

It seems like once the light has been turned on it can not be turned back off. Nevertheless, even if tho I was an addict it doesn't take much to maintain your composure enough to advance in life. Once you start slippin you cant let yourself turn into the scum of the earth. I'm a never ignorant getting goals accomplished type person. A nigga persay. Lol a nigga attending a university now.

i just stopped most everything. i still take an occasional pain killer. opiates and pot are the only things my body will tolerate. lsd makes me hurt, mdma makes me tweaked and hurt, drinking makes me hurt, fuck anything other than opiates and pot make me hurt. luckily i have gotten my life together..somewhat. i live in an awsome house, rented of course, have a g/f that would give her life for me and im a culinary assistant making 16 an hour. it seems though that even though ive gotten so far, life still somehow makes my world hell. last week on mon my g/f grandmother died and had to go to her funeral, then this week i got type a flu. fuckin nice.

Go in the Marine Corps they will stomp all that shit outta of ya and make ya productive member of America. Makes ya feel proud. I used to have all those feeling and the Corps taught me that I was nothing but a spoke in a wheel and life is bigger than you are. And the Corps is bigger than you are. And that If you have the balls and you survive recruit traning you feel the pride of being a United States Marine. But the choice is yours....

unfortunately i tried to get in the marines, they wont take me cause of some tattoo regulation passed a couple years back. i have them on my hands and neck. the army tried to get me in but my previous record prevented me from getting past rsp. i passed pt, completed a years worth of rsp and was an e-2, then they started taking troops out of iraq and i was called in and handed my dismissal papers along with 7 others. but that was when my life was all fucked up, i barely passed meps. i wouldnt sign up again, well, i cant really say that. there was always something about army life that attracted me. maybe self-destruction. i wouldnt discourage anyone from it, but then again i wouldnt push them either.

Cocaine, oddly like pot, is a psychological addiction.Chances are, it fulfilled an emotional need for you (and most of the people that can't let it go and let it drive them to hell) as for some of the others mentioned, crack, meth, heroin are all straight poison. Worst thing about coke is where there is coke, there is someone making crack with it. Most of the "legal" drugs are no better. Alc kills more people in the us then any other cause by itself, and it only takes 10 Tylenol to never wake up.
Though for yet another argument for pot, The one person I knew that was able to get off of all that (he did heroin, speed, crack, anything he could get his hands on) was able to quit by staying constantly high. Didnt make it easy, but it took the edge off, and he did it without going to rehab (which I don't suggest, because it can be medically dangerous, if your ready to quit go rehab)

I'm going to guess your one of our older members, now they won't take you without having a clean system going in. I understand they used to take you in any shape cause they knew they were going to stop that shit out of you, and then after training start testing when needed, but not today, they already want you to be a good citizen going in. You can't even have unpaid tickets these days. Before I tried to sign up all I knew about recruiting was from Vietnam war vets, so when I went to take my test I was straight blazed out of my mind like I wouldn't be able to get high again in my life, busted a 96 on their test, then failed the drug test. And that was it. The recruiters were mad because they said had I let them know they would have helped me pass it, which I thought was funny, but it kind of pisses me off. Those soldiers served their motherfuckin asses off, and by todays standards they aren't good enough?! They claim to not have enough soldiers, yet they've made it harder to join?! Doesn't make since to me. Just my humble opinion of course...

I couldn't join the army. I don't believe in conformity and I don't believe in making war. The USA is both a conformist and aggressive country. At one point in time I was a very conformative and aggressive person but now I think for myself and do as I damn please. It takes more character to stand alone in this world than it does to join a gang, and it certainly takes more character to be passive rather than aggressive.
