I tried amphetamines (purple hearts) as a teenager. A part of my mind was aware that I was not fully in control and was talking too much when under the influence so preferred to do without it. Used nicotine for years but successfully weaned myself off it about 20 years ago. Still on the alcohol but in moderation. Have had morphine in hospital a couple of times, Lovely stuff, heavenly. Anyone know where I can get some? Currently on quite a cocktail (to stay alive) but none of them addictive. Main ambition: to reach my next birthday, len

No, never. I was far too scared, I took notice of the stories in the press about people dying from taking drugs. Like others, I'm taking far too many prescription drugs to make recreational ones seem appealing! Mandy :)

No, but was offered hash by an ex, would have tried it but I don't smoke! He said I could bake with it but I really couldn't be bothered to make 'hash cookies'!

Anyone who starts taking drugs today (nicotine included) is, quite frankly, an idiot. 99% chance that'll you'll regret it in 10 years time or less. You'd have spent thousands of pounds - for what??? And finally and most importantly, you've likely to have shortened your life considedrably. Is it worth it? Not in my book.

Well done Daniel. I don't wish to sound patronising but what a brave - and true! - statement to hear from a teenage boy. Mandy :)

No never, can't say I have ever been offered any either. I have never even smoked (not even tried) never saw the point. Although I do drink alcohol occasionally and i love chocolate!!! Rebecca

The most dangerous recreational drug I have ever 'used' is alcohol..... thankfully I got off that.

Ok, I've never tried drugs. I found out someone I know was taking cannabis which kind of shocked me(she is from a Christian family). I don't see the point in taking drugs because I do have my own free will lol A lot of people my age take drugs but they do it just because it's cool lol Lucia :-)

If you mean anything illegal then no. The smell of someone elses spliff makes me want to be sick. I did smoke but gave up 10+ years ago and only drink in moderation now! Sad Viv :-(

Cool That just goes over the top of my hatted head. The people who are said to be 'cool' are usually the people who are going no where in life. Beyond me why others would want to be like that just to be 'cool' Anyone have the answer?

Luciacw Report 31 May 2005 23:23

I said to her(just for effect) when she was smoking the cannabis: 'Can I have try?'. She replied 'No'. This seems to imply that I am not mature enough to try cannabis. How exactly is taking Cannabis being mature? Lucia :-)
