I have used drugs responsibly for years. The key is moderation. Every once in awhile it's nice to let loose, just don't let it take control of your life.
I have been around a lot of people who use drugs, and the one that takes the cake is alcohol. The common mis-perception that it is not a drug allows people to think they don't have a problem and sink deeper into alcoholism.
As for those of you who don't like it...that's fine. You can preach away. Everybody has a vice. I've known people who have sat in front of computers half their lives, whether it be games, chatting, etc. They have become socially retarded. Everything has the possibility of addiction. I use to be an avid mountain climber. I put myself in just as much risk as doing drugs. Why? Just for the fun of it.
Not don't get me wrong. I don't condone the use of drugs like heroin and crack. I would never touch those drugs. But that's me being in control of my life. I also actively read up on what I am using, as do most of my friends. Hell, they have piles of books on the shit. You could be surprised by the amount of stuff you can learn if you just do some digging around.
Rant over.
