Questions about drugs

In this day and age. There are so many people that choose to use drugs. I never did and I probably never will do. I ve always been open to listening to the experience through others but it has never been a question about using it myself.

At the same time - i ve had a load of friends who have used drugs. For some reason i have always been shielded from it tho. I dont know, maybe they do not think its for me. Maybe i am marked as "too innocent".... I don t know.

At the same time I am curious to find out how people get into using drugs. I can t put myself in that situation - ive never been in it - and honestly i am way too scared to ever try it myself. What am i scared about? Never asked myself the question really, just don t think it would do me any good basically. And today i am really thankful for that fear. Knowing people who have already used drugs i realise that it is mind altering in so many ways. some people take years to get their full ability back in terms of their emotional life as well as certain intellectual abilities...Short term and long term memory loss and so forth...

My point is, what makes you do it in the first place???? And what would you wish could have stopped you from doing it???? I want to know this. At some point i will be having kids - and i want to make sure they never ever try them....Just like me :)
