Although drinking beer was commonplace in Liverpool, Lennon was first given drugs in Hamburg, Germany. The Beatles had to play long sets, and were often given "Prellies" (Preludin) (slimming pills) by customers or by Astrid Kirchherr, whose mother bought them for her. McCartney would usually take one, but Lennon would often take four or five He later took amphetamines called 'Black Bombers' and 'Purple Hearts'.
After having smoked cannabis with Bob Dylan in New York in 1964, McCartney remembered all of the Beatles being "very high" and laughing a lot.
Lennon largely abandoned his leadership role under the influence of LSD and Timothy Leary's book The Psychedelic Experience, believing he needed to "lose his ego" to become enlightened

that's no longer regular. you may desire to smoke pot in view which you like no longer by way of fact of a Beatle. John Lennon did acid too. Acid and marijuana are great drugs, the countless maximum suitable unquestionably, yet this is a very dumb reason to apply them.
