Never done any recreational drugs.

Is that including cigarettes and alcohol or are you only talking about the ones that are federally illegal?

Never smoked a cigarette, but I do try a drink now and then. I find the phrase “drugs & alcohol” relevant here in that they’re different categories.

Apples and fruit. Cement and building materials. Giraffes and animals. Alcohol and drugs.

Why? I’ve just never been interested on altering my mood or perceptions using an external source. I don’t even like the effects of alcohol.

I think it’s so cool to see what happens to your brain with the effects of various chemicals. We’re so convinced of our own sanctity, and feeling the world differently just disavows you of that in a few minutes.

I think LSD should be a common coming of age right. We’d all be better off, and better for each other, if we could realize we’re each just a tiny blip in the world.

Never been so blasé about your life that you opened your friend’s parent’s medicine cabinet and recklessly took whatever prescriptions you found in there in a desperate attempt to get high and escape reality?

Good for you!

Is it OK to feel sorry for you? The thought of doing this has never even crossed my mind. People would describe me as a very optimistic and happy person though. I guess I just don’t need any drugs for escape, although I do enjoy jumping into a video game and beating up some bad guys. Dynasty Warriors is great therapy.

I feel sorry for who I was.

But I escaped all that, and I have a lot of family and love and caring all around me now. Drug free for decades.
