IMHO, anything is fine as long as you do it in moderation, and you know your own limits.
I smoke grass occasionally, but I don't really consider that a drug. Our ancestors have been using it for rituals for millennia, and as long as you respect it's power, it can't take over.
Myself, I don't use it to "trade sadness for numbness", I find that it helps me reflect. I use it as a tool to delve deep into my mind, to try to find meaning in this world other than the ugliness that faces me each day.
lady, get out now while your still young enough to enjoy it!.......i been tellin' ya all along to just up and head south to portland ro maybe somewhere warm if that's your thing.....
i was born and raised in AK and was employed by united airlines right out of my senoir year of high school....they moved me to LA for 5 years and it was probably the best thing that ever happened to this 18yr old Alaskan......the warm weather and variety of people changed me forever.......
now i'm much older though and after livin' outside for 10 years i moved back up........witha new view of the world.....i now know i want to live in AK for the rest of my day's.......as long as i can leave anytime i want it's not such a bad place.......nothin's worse than bein' stuck up there however.......feelin' trapped ain't a good thing......
been down here in portland for like 5 weeks and will be here for a few more before we bring the ship back up to seward.......i'm lovin' every day of it but the closer it get's to summer the more i feel the pull to get back up north......sorry i ramble.......
Get out of that place. I'm sure you have somewhere to go, someone who'll set you up for a bit...there's no point in being somewhere if it's doing nothing for you. Same with drugs, some people like 'em I guess, but I just don't get it. I don't get most things, though.
I have never done drugs. (to answer our question) There was a thread about that recently. A member was wondering if every other member was a user. Many were not.
Alaska always sounded pretty cool to me. But that is the Boyscout inside me trying to get out.
Florida is nice this time of year. SG Quinne moved doen here from Canada.
trading sadness for numbness...hmm sounds like it could be a strange song lyric. heh. but yea thats why i refrain from pain killers now...that and i would take too many.
I am totally with you on the drug issue. People look at me in utter shock when I tell them I've never done any drugs, or even been drunk for that matter. And of course, because it's perceived as hip and rebellious, most of the people in the SG community play it up. Yet another way I don't fit in around here, it seems. Anyway, it's refreshing to see there's someone else who's not all anxious to tell everyone how much they love pot.
Poor Puter don't kick it in the garbage it just needs some love and attention and an occasional disk defrag.
I know how you feel I so wanna move too anywhere but here and apparently Kenai cause if your not going to be there then what's the point.
