it was obviously not a good thing, but you didn't overdose and die from that shit. sure your friend s and family might call you Skeletor and lock everything up.

But crack comes from cocaine, which is awesome. Unfortunately it's too awesome so people ruined it for the rest of us.
I had a friend who used to smoke crack and asked him what it felt like. He told me "you know how when you smoke weed it makes you feel high? Well when you smoke crack it makes feel like you need to smoke more crack."

Early '90s was the tail end of the coke era, with LSD getting popular again towards the end of the '90s.

I did acid again as a "grown up" recently. But instead of being an idiot like I was when I was young, always trying to do a heroic dose, I just did a quarter dose. Led to an amazing day hanging with my best friends, drinking beers while chilling with my toes in the creek. It would be great if people were responsibly enough that we could just buy and use these things for ourselves without the government interfering.

All the cool kids here are on Fentanyl and other super hard stuff.
Today I was walking down town and there was this crazy woman just yelling randomly at nobody, going to assume she was on drugs too. It's kind of sad watching my city turn into a cesspool of druggies though. :/ That stuff needs to stay in Toronto and other big cities and not come here.
So much theft here too, because people need their fix. I still say all drugs should be legal, take the money that goes towards enforcing that, and put it into policing real crime. Yeah lot of that crime may be drug related, but instead of putting so much effort on the guys doing a little bit of drugs in the privacy of their own home, go after the ones that are actually causing harm to others or their property, because those things are already illegal.
There may be also people who actually want help with addiction but they know they'll get in trouble if they admit they are on drugs, so they don't get help.
I know the first time I tried weed I felt horribe like I was going to die (guess it does not bode well with my body) but I was too scared to go to the ER and admit what I just did. So I just prayed that it was nothing bad and that it will pass. It did, after like 3 days. Heart rate was 150bpm the whole time, was pretty crazy. I was basically running a marathon sitting down. Basically it was an anxiety attack.

That's how I felt the last time I tried weed after "trying" for 15 years.
I'm still a little bummed that I don't like it anymore but whatever.

Funny thing is I love the smell, so I don't actually mind being around people doing it, but I definitely won't try it again, at least not in a public setting. I think that's what triggered me to go into an anxiety attack. I was worried I was going to do something stupid. Like you hear stories like "oh he was so high last night" etc and I was panicking that I was going to be "that guy" and be all over Facebook etc. That's the issue now days with parties is if you do anything dumb it's all over the internet the next morning. I'm introverted to begin with so I was in a super uncomfortable setting. I think I would have been fine if I had been at home with a friend or something.
