Yesterday I found out that another person I graduated highschool with has died of an Ecstacy overdose. It blew my mind. This is the fourth person I have known to die from a drug overdose in the last few years. Other people have died by suicide while on drugs. It is crazy how this world of ours, especially the party scene revolves around drugs like ecstacy and cocaine. More and more people experiment with these drugs everyday and the age keeps dropping it seems. My cousin who is 13 got into E and meth..she is ****ing 13! My boyfriends brother and his wife are losing thier lives to coaine and ecstacy... Makes me sick..and so sad.. i dont understand how someone can see all these people dying from it, having thier lives ruined and they still continue to do it like it is alright.. but really it seems to take them dying themselves to realize the mistakes they are making. Whatever happened to partying , having a few drinks and smoking a joint? All of a sudden in order to go to the club some people need to be high on E , or snort a rail to stay awake.. then they just keep doing more and more.. blah had to get that off my chest

I used to be into it too but then i realized what it was doing to my mind and my body. I also saw those around me lose everything to it. There is more to life than sacraficing certain aspects of your body/mind/life to drugs.

I bartend at Raves sometimes and I can't believe the capacity to which these young people can tolerate with E and coke and alcohol and Special K. How do they know what they're buying and using is pure? And when do you find out your limit, when you are dead? Not to point fingers because I used pain killers and alcohol. But I got over it. Nowadays you won't even see me take something for a migraine. Drinks are few and far between.

and this is where I get to shake my head, not specifically at this post but in general.. as if it's somehow ok to buy coke / whatever, as long as it's PURE? Uhh.. I have a sneaky feeling that pure coke is bad for you also.. previously, a comment was made about why people can't just have a drink, dance and smoke a joint? Following that was a post about how people wound up suffering from drug abuse.. it's like the obvious chronology isn't.. so obvious..

Everyone creates their own illusion, some more worse than others. It's sad.

I was more leaning towards the fact that weed hasn't ever killed someone of a drug overdose.. i see what you mean though i suppose i worded it wrong. i meant "hard" drug abuse

Well, I was going from the context from some old hippie friends of mine tucked away in the Hollywood Hills. To them their drugs were pure. Nowadays the craze is mixing up your own stuff. I wouldn't condone either way. I had a THC addict for a bf once and that was hellish. Free will makes it so easy to slowly destroy yourself.

Very true dear.. and the more free will we utilize, we seemingly engage in less and less personal accountability..

Bottom line is any drug abuse is destructive to your life. I was trying to make a point about excessive drug use though. Some people smoke one here or there etc. and thier lives are fine. (or are they?)

I was in the counter-culture industry from BC to LA to Amsterdam to Spain to Germany. I can't be a hypocrite about weed. But the other shyt is way severe. Weed can also weigh you down. Centuries ago some used psychedelic "tools" to inspire and enlighten oneself to gain insight to your true spiritual path. I think we are all a little bit lost. I know I have been in the Lost and Found cubby a lot.
