Its a common misconception that if one uses drugs they are a fuckup. the fundamental difference is drug use vs. drug abuse. I consider myself a drug user, getting high at night before i play video games, or when going to a party. I use drugs to enhance free time, because it is exactly that, free time. I dont go to classes high, and i dont study high, i dont even go to work high. I currently have a job and i am going to university, both of which are going very well, despite what you may think about my drug use. There is a line between time for work and time for play, and as long as you have some semblance of self control its not hard to maintain this separation.
A drug user finds themselves being blurred into the category of drug abuser once they feel the obligatory need to reach that high. Once you need to get high before work just deal with it, thats when there is a problem. That being said, there is a difference between need and want. Wanting to get high before a party or before u sit down to play eq is fine. Its your free time and no one should be able to tell you how to use it. Wanting to get high before work is fine as well, but you should recognize that this is not your free time, someone is paying you for that time, respect that. The problem arises when you need to get high before anything, imo it might be time to take a step back and ask yourself if it truly is a requirement or not. And if the answer to that question is yes, then seek medical help. Doctors are there to help you, its their hippocratic responsibility to do so. Only when someone realizes they have an abuse problem, but chooses the drug over a healthy life would i classify them as a fuckup.

Although a drug user like myself might be a rarity, we do exist. I like to have a good time when able; but when it comes to important shit, like education, and later on a career, its a no brainer. It all comes down to priorities.
I was JK. Honestly, if I wasn't in the Army, didn't have a wife, and kid I would still be smoking.
I get spice every once in awhile, when I'm stateside (currently deployed, so no drugs/alcohol for a YEAR [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.])
But I agree with you 100%. I was working 2 jobs, going to school full time, and I use to smoke weed before EQ/quake/WoW time, or on weekends. I even dabbled with coke (during midterms and finals week to cram), and of course my FAVVVVVORITE drug would have to be either X or vicoden. I've done coke maybe 20 times in a matter of 5/6 years, X/V I took once or twice a week, weed nearly everyday, it was the only time I could sleep and eat, had some issues irl at that time.

I think everything from weed to heroin should be legal, let stupidity solve itself [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

TLDR? I agree with you, I use to be a drug user.
