It's a chemical that effects a chemical system. In particular quantities it has particular effects, in a particular setting it has particular effects. The reality is that just because a person has some experience with a drug doesn't mean they have enough experience to determine that taking that particular drug won't cause harm. The concept of a mighty WILL that remains unperturbed when a person introduces a substance into his or her body is a concept carried by those with very little experience with drugs over time. I say "over time" because spending the two years between 16-18 as a miscreant drug addict certainly isn't enough experience to determine much of anything.

One conclusion that most who use drugs over time reach is that some substances influence our moods and behaviour more negatively than others. Those who are able to integrate drugs into their lives in such a way that they enhance their lives are able to do so because they care enough about themselves to take there own suseptabilities seriously.

I enjoy the effect of xanax on rare occasions but have found I'm likely to be irritable and depressed the day after using it so It's rare that I use it. Xanax is also so easy to use habitually. I mean it doesn't stink like weed or alcohol. Doesn't spill or require smoking, is hard to detect a person who is on a reasonable dose, helps with social anxiety and sleep (which means added vectors of possible of dependence), and there is an entire industry that will gladly supply the justifications one might need to use the stuff habitually (the psychiatric industry if you were wondering).

Also, and perhaps I'm wrong here but I think that it can be fairly accurately said that just about every individual who fucks over themselves and their loved ones through substance abuse starts out with the belief that it can't happen to them.

U don't know wtf your talking about. Ur the dude who said u ran from the police and then blew .70. Then when I called u out u said oh it was .47...I didn't call u out again b/c I didn't want to b a dick. But, it's obvious your a liar. So, I have no respect for your opinion, whatsoever. You're probably a young kid with no life experience trying to talk shit about something u know nothing about.


I agree with most of what u said but I call bullshit on this one. I'm not even making that assumption based on personal experience since you obviously believe I'm too young to jump to such conclusions. I know others who are much older than me and quite successful who would say that's bullshit. I know 40 and 50 year olds who love to snort coke once in awhile. Others who like to take pills. My dad for one. I got many other examples. Some may ruin their lives but not all do. Everybody is different...Bottom line use the drug. Don't let the drug use you

First I'd say that evaluating the degree of control that another person professes to have is difficult owing to the fact that we'd all have our peers see our best face forward. I just don't think that the 40 or 50 year old would invite you in to the argument he's having with his wife reguarding the money he overspent partying. I'm not saying YOUR examples are all bullshit, I'm just saying that lapses in will and the more negative aspects of drug use aren't as entertaining or ego boosting to speak of as are the more fun aspects.

We love to give ourselves free credit when we can. Naturally I don't contest that someone could smoke just a little crack. I just don't think anyone has the right to feel superior or attribute greater mental strength based on that when the reality is that they are still pursuing pleasure and avoiding pain. It's no suprise when some abused 15 year old girl from the ghetto gets strung out on crack, really, why shouldn't she? For you and I life is robust enough or has been robust enough in the past for us to realize the cost of sacrificing everything for a drug isn't worth it. That makes it far easier to stop hitting the pipe because there is a real cost to our overall happiness. The value that we place on our lives is dependent on the satisfaction we get from them, some people value their lives less than others so for those people pursuing a drug effect with reckless abandon to the end isn't quite the sacrifice that it is for others.

I would also say that the value we place on our own lives isn't always obvious and fluctuates so the relative ease with which we give up a pleasurable behaviour at one stage of life may be difficult or impossible at another stage. That basically means that just because you smoked crack all night and stopped on a dime when you were in college and about to get a hard earned degree and would soon be engaged doesn't mean you'll be able to do the same thing when you're 43 and have had to move out of your house because your wife is divorcing you and you've very little to look forward to.
