OK, you asked for it. I took every drug that came through town from 1969-1974. After sober evaluation I gave them all up except for weed. Life must go on and drugs make life foggy. Alcohol included. Moderation in all things. You should be an individual without serious mental or emotional problems. Drugs will just make them worse.
• Cannabis is the ultimate drug. It enhances contentment, is not addictive, and is not dangerous at all. No one ever died from smoking pot.
• Anesthetics like Angel Dust are the most dangerous. They can literally make you crazy with one dose. I've never been so scared in my life. Run away. Run away.
• Fuck Pharmaceuticals. Speed kills. Barbiturates kill. I never liked like ups and downs. Meth and Quaaludes are for losers without balance. Drugs that can make your heart stop are more foolish than alcohol poisoning.
• Narcotics will give you the finest feeling that you have ever had in your life. You should try heroin, morphine, dilaudid, or opium once. But if you go back to it, it will own you. No shit.
• Psychedelics in small does should also be tried once. Whatever hit you get, be it acid, mescaline, or whatever . . . take half a hit. It is indeed mind expanding and interesting. But larger doses do not make it better, it makes it scary and can make you crazy if really abused. Not psychotic, like angel dust, but permanently bent. Acid burnout cases are weird mo-fo's.
• Cocaine is a genuine hoot, but before you even come down you start asking yourself, "Where can I get some more of this?". Not a good sign. I did snort a lot of lines at parties in the cocaine 80's, but I never bought any. The buzz-per-dollar ratio sucks and I'm a cheap sonofabitch. As Chong says, "Coke shrinks the membranes around your wallet."
