discussion At what age did you first do drugs?

[jone32]

I don't even smoke cigarettes.

 

[Feral]

375 mL isn't that much more than 12 oz, which is the normal size in the US. 24 is a case (which is what they were only sold in outside of bars - at distributors - until a few years ago. Until then grocery stores, etc couldn't sell alcohol at all.)

WTF. I just spent a few minutes looking up buying Alcohol in USA and found there were 4 states that closed Bottle shops as we call them on a Sunday. From what I read about in America, I am sitting here thinking but did n`t they repeal prohibition ? On the other hand I can still remember a time here when everything but the pub shut at 12 noon Saturday and stayed closed till Monday. Stayed that way until about 1996, but you could still buy takeaways at the pub bottle shop all Saturday and Sunday. Now both of the 2 major supermarkets here have their own brand of bottleshop attached. and all the smaller ones ie Aldi etc sell Alcohol. More and more people are turning to Home brewing in Oz as the only way of getting a decent drink at a good price. Making your own beer or wine for home consummation is legal here as long as you dont sell it. Spirits you need a license to make When I was a teenager it was easier and quicker to get weed etc, than a beer. I could get Kegs when I was 16 thru the boss at work but for most teens unless your parents or older siblings got it for you, then bad luck till ya 18

They were closed in my state Sunday until a few years back.

That really is as fucked up as the old 6pm closing that led to what became known a the 6 o'clock swill. Luckily before my time

It's still the case that , other than for drinking on premises at bars/restaurants, hard liquor can only be sold in state owned stores.

 

[irpotato556]

Alcohol, cigarettes, and weed all at the age of 15. Showing up to to wed design class drunk and for the first time stoned didn't work out so well.. Year later kicked the weed kept up the smoking and drinking. Today I am going on 5 years no smokes and only drink on occasion no more bingeing...

at 19 with weed never really had the appeal for that

 

[dank04]

Smoked my first bowl of weed with my best friend when we were 15. I snickered for hours

 

[User_9860]

14 with weed and alcohol

 

[_willowned_]

Never smoke, drank, or did any drugs. I was a good kid.

 

[Bananana73]

Weed at around 14. It's always just put me to sleep so I never really got into it, except for exactly that purpose. A weed gummie when I think I'm gonna have trouble sleeping helps a ton.

 

[Wulf]

At 14 i smoked some weed and drinked some alcohol. I guess i was lucky to get out of it soon, but i did use a lot of things

 

[peyiwe95]

They were afraid I'd stop breathing if I slept, so I got prescription meth at age 6. Anticlimactic since it killed any curiosity later on.

 

[jimmecimme]

I smoked weed and drank four lokos at my friends house when I was 18. I haven't tried any other drugs

 

[rocketsheep]

Half an aspirine at approximately 22. It had a massive effect (from fever to fully ready for action). Or does antihistamine count as well? That started a few years earlier.

 

[IFF01]

Never unless you count prescriptions after surgery.

 

[Yourmonster]

I smoked weed for the first time at like 12? maybe 13? def ruined my memory tho.

 

[feen]

Like a lot of others, I haven't done anything except post-surgery pain-killers.
I mean, I want to try something, but all of my friends are either straight-laced or have "grown past" it; I'm too old for anyone to believe I want to try experimenting this late in life, and I'm in a small enough town that if I start asking around I'll get ostracized or reported pretty quickly.

Magic Mushrooms are still on my bucket list, though.
