whats yo prob with synthetics

[JunkYard]

I fully agree, man!

It's just that time CAN get away with you when 'experimenting', and such.

I see no harm in a snort here, and there, though.

What the difference is, is the reason why crack, coke, LSD, et al, don't affect me, yet Cannabis is better than ever, and that is because Head Trauma deadens your Opioid Receptors and enhances your Hippocampi output of your body's natural-cannabinoids (Anandamide), which affect your Cannabinoid Receptors.

Two different systems.

And other drugs directly affect your Central Nervous System.

Pot only affects the CB receptors in your CNS.

I had the choice of either a scientific answer, or a spiritual one. I went spiritual, but BG makes a good point as well.

My whole take is everyone is entitled to pick their poison

I don't have a problem with synthetics, but I would never do meth, herion, ro crack

In the end there is nothing that makes you morally superior to prefering the high of alcohol over pot, and vice versa, as with other drugs and mind altering substances, its all about getting high! nothing more, nothing less

Any drug can be fun if used responsibly and in moderation, and if you can't handle it, don't take it, there are other ways to get you in the place you want to be

I just don't like taking anything that could be made is some kids basement. Grown yes, but nothing man made if I can help it.

I've done meth, coke, heroin, opium, etc. so I really don't have any room to criticize anyone else for trying them as well. I haven't done anything other than weed in over 12 years, however. The two big differences that I see between natural drugs such as weed and shrooms is:

1. Addiction-weed is not phsically addictive and no where's near as psycholigically addictive as most other syntheic drugs. I've never seen anyone's life ruined by weed. I have, however, seen my best friend go so far down the road of heroin addiction that he never came back.

2. Ability to Overdose- You simply can't od on weed.

Basically the synthetics are far more dangerous than weed or shrooms. There are people like me and, I assume hellomandude, who can occaisionally use these drugs and be fine with them. Most people, however, can not.

I think one big reason that a lot of people on this board (marijuana only users) have a problem with the other synthetic drugs is that the general public tends to classify marijuana along with heroin and crack as simply "drugs". We are educated and know better but they don't. They also see marijuana as a gateway drug leading to harder drug use. Therefore, the continued use of drugs such as heroin, crack, and meth only set back the efforst to have marijuana legalized like it should be.

kyyzco expecially u last post/line

very good comment

I would tell her to NEVER whatever the circumstance use a syringe to administor a drug, they are the #2 cause of AIDS in america + it isn't hard to shoot an extra cc up accidently and O.D. I'd throw the syringes in the fireplace then ask her where her stash is. As soon as she showed it to me id examine it for any volitle chemicals, impurites etc. (It can kill you) and tell her if what she had was any good or not. If it was questionable, i'd throw it out and tell her i will give her my connects number, a connect that I have experience with and know won't sell her bunk stuff. It's like I always say know your Body know your Mind know your Substance know your Source. If you take all 4 into consideration you are pretty much safe. And then of course I'd set a limit to how often I allowed her to do it. Perhaps a small line on weekends, if they havnt fucked up and failed to follow through on anything they were supposed to do in the previous day(s). And I would always sit with her for administration. Just to be safe as possible. Otherwise, If Id try and keep her from it she's her own person and would no doubt go lookin for it on the streets getting involved in the wrong kinda people and def. putting herself in danger[/QUOTE]

i think this is a good example of limiting yourself and being careful

well taken outta context but stil

you get the point

I agree with the fact that everyone has the right to pick their poison. I am capable of doing X or a line or two or meth in a weekend and not touch it again for a couple months. I live in Iowa, a HUGE percentage of the nations meth comes from here. I quit doing it basically for my brother. He got so caught up in it he was crawling underneath his house looking for the CIA and shit. It took a hold on him and he couldn't shake it. It ruined his life and his relationship with his family, and now slowly he is coming back. He has been clean for a few months now but I can still see the effects. Sometimes he still acts like a tweeker and doesn't realize it, or he'll zone out. His personality has changed alot after overcoming addiction. So like I said, pick your poison. Just don't let it ruin your life. When you start pawning shit for money to buy these drugs, that's when you know you have a problem.
I just hate to see it eat another brain and another life.
