I used to smoke meth, weed, and drink I have done coke occasionally. I smoked weed from 8th grade thru till 12th then I quit it stopped being fun I also tried meth in the 8th grade 4 times but never agian till my twenties. I used meth for 6 straight years after that, that stopped being fun too, but I was addicted. I used coke and weed again while using meth, just cause. I recently quit using everything 146 days ago.
Why did I take it in the first place? Good question, that's one I've asked myself many many times..... I'm told that answer may come up as I do my "steps" so I can't really pin point a main reason, I know wanting to stay up and work and party longer had to do with it, maintaining a smaller waistline had something to do with it, the way it felt has a lot to do with it and my disease of addiction has a great deal to do with why I continued to do it when I no longer wanted to use.
I'm glad you don't want to there is so much out there that deserves to be appreciated in this world, than to get stuck using and living drugs.
Did I stop? YES Why? I was dead inside. I was so hurt and tired of all of it, it just kills the person spiritually and emotionally and physically as well. You forgot HOW? Cause there is so much more than just "quitting" /abstinence of using drugs, I found a 12 step program which is saving my life right now, and my higher power.
Drugs aren't something to laugh over, they are something you lose everything over.

I grew up in the late 60-early 70's when it was more socially tolerated than it is today. I smoked weed mostly, but tried a few other things. I quit for about 15 years, and in a moment of weakness started smoking again.

My old habits came back with a vengeance, within a few months I was stoned from the time I woke up in the morning until I fell asleep at night every single day.
After a year or so, I developed clinical depression and discovered depression medication and marijuana mixed was an enjoyable and dangerous combination.
I've been clean for almost 3 years.
Why did I stop? I nearly killed a close friend in an auto accident.

Like someone else said, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about starting again.

I smoked pot and did acid (hippie drugs I like to say), and while I had fun at the time (high school), I can't say the same for some of my friends. My personal belief is that some people are going to experiment and some won't, and what people do with that or what their parents do with that is really an individual thing. I wouldn't fault my child for experimenting, but would also make sure to tell them the dangers of any drug. I took drugs in the first place because I was bored, and nothing more. I think I turned out pretty well, all things considered.

I did anything I could get my hands on. Took it because I was bored and wanted to escape to a world where nothing mattered. Yes I stopped when I found out what it was doing to my mind and body. I've been clean for almost 2 years. I am tempted almost everyday to start back. It is a struggle. I started smoking weed at 15 and went to other drugs I stopped the 1st time when I was 21. It's been on again off again ever since.

I can't write them down here because I might get reported.
I took different stuff for different amounts of time.
I took it in the first place because someone I know sold them and they let me in on it and that's why I took it
No, I haven't stopped but if you ever saw me, you wouldn't believe that I ever did that kind of stuff.

Pot, mushrooms. Only once in a while. It's like drinking. You wouldn't want to be drunk all the time would you. Cocaine and heroin and all that other stuff is bad. Stay away from those ones.
