Was weed your 'gateway' drug?

My 'gateway' was tweak, I had my first cigarette a few weeks before I did meth which was all before I smoked weed lol

i've decided i'll never do herion or meth or inject any drug. i guess you could say weed is my gateway drug even though i havent done anything else yet but i plan to.

i'm guessing that people don't know the seriousness of other drugs. marijuana is played out to be this horrible drug due to propaganda.
you don't see commercials on cocaine and crack, etc.
it would seem to the unintelligible person that marijuana is the worst drug ever.
in theory, if someone finally built up the courage to try the drug and realized that everything was exagerrated it'd almost seem okay to try other things...more harmful things.
once your introduced to marijuana every other possibility of getting fucked up is suddenly open to you.
it's just the way the universe works.

Exactly my point.

Marijuana is only a gateway drug -because- it is illegal. It is often the most accessible illegal drug, so once that bridge is crossed, doing other illegal things wouldn't be so bad.

If caffeine were illegal, it would be the gateway drug of choice.

Pills were my gateway drug. The first time I smoked pot I was actually kinda scared because of all of the government propaganda and shit about it. I thought it was going to be some sort of insane hallucinogenic trip that was going to put me on my ass for the next week, even though I started out doing drugs by snorting oxycontin. That just shows how fucked up all of this propaganda shit is.

nope weed suits me fine i see no reason nor have the desire to try anything harder.

only a few people are smart enough to realize that weed isnt bad and most other drugs are, alcohol isnt a 'gateway drug' because poeple think its harmless, and that they will never become, omg, a, a, a pothead! but when they do try weed, they think, hey wtf, i did weed, heroin and crack gotta be the same thing, its just another reason to legalize weed and get poeple to realize that DARE, the govt, NIDA, all these evil organizations LIED to them!

Alcohol is THE gateway drug.

alcohol was my gateway drug... i was about 10-11 when i got truely drunk for the first time... it definately predisposed me to other substances, more than if i had not drank... also i tried just to sell weed for 2 years before i started to smoke... i never really wanted to smoke, just wanted the money and connections, eventually though all my friends broke me down (true peer pressure), and i smoked with them... and i haven't missed more than 8 total days (and a 4 month period where i was locked up) smoking since

Weed wasnt my gateway drug at all,i had already drank plenty of alcohol, and Caffeine before i started pot, I think alcohol is more of a gateway drug anyways, because it fucks you up alot.
