 Coolness: 201915 | I'm pretty sure drugs would be more fun if you took care of your personal problems before getting fucked up so you don't have any bad thoughts creeping in while you're off your rocker... |

 Coolness: 686280 | Pfft, I know exactly what I want! Weed, money, alcohol and a blowjob.
That would make me damn happy. |

 Coolness: 174780 | I had been sober for about a year and a half, then becam extremly depressed. Unfortunately i self medicated myself to ignore the problem at hand. The drugs did an excellent job at masking and numbing the pain, but the minute the effects wore off, it was as if I had built and emotional dam, and everytime I would fall out of my haze the dam would be flooded with everything at once. The only thing I could do at the moment was just take more drugs. All in all everything became worse, and so did my expenditures on my products for self medication. There are few other things that relieve me of the torment of my self destruction, the minute they also leave, things revert back to the initial state. I've begun to cut down on drugs and follow the path I was following a year ago to better myself with the experiences in my life, good or bad. Self enlightenment will always be more worthy than self destruction.
I am back on the path to healing myself. I have my friends to thank for that. To those who think there is no hope for anything, they are wrong. |

 Coolness: 277125 | I completly agree with jeff, I went down the same road myself last year and it came to a point where the drugs werent doing what I wanted them to do.. So why keep doing it.. I realized it wasnt going to solve my problems for me.. At the same time it made me realize ALOT of things that without that experience i wouldnt of been able to realize.. so I dont regret it completly. |

| Coolness: 63600 | love doesn't exist in my world so i replace it with drugs and when i don't have money, food.
so it goes. my psychologist wants to give me drugs to fight my terrible "afflictions". go figure. she's not allowed to prescribe though, so HA! ... wish i still had the means to self-medicate. *cries* just to say, if you get depression, all your doctors will try to put you on drugs. THERE's the only correlation i can see. bleah. |

| Coolness: 201915 | there's a difference between clinical grade drugs in continuous steps of prescriptions untill they find what works for you, and buying something from the street of unknown quality and "self-medicating"... |

| Coolness: 63600 | yeah one feels good and makes you feel normal whereas the shit the doctors prescribe gives you twitches, nausea, shakiness and a whole slew of unwanted side-effects |

| Coolness: 686280 | Temporary uncomfortable side effects in an attempt to get better, or extremely body-damaging side effects that over time WILL kill you, and if you quit after it's just a tiny bit too late you spend the rest of your life with permanent psychological, physical and neurological damage.
Personally, if it came down to absolutely having to take SOME form of drug to "get better", I'd rather spend 6 months to a year with occaisional nausea, occaisional twitches and the "whole slew of other side effects" than looking like Ozzy does. And how we see Ozzy now, is HEAVILY medicated to regulate his brain's chemical imbalance. As in, 15-20 pills a day, just to stay "normal", or else he gets WORSE than how he is. Yeah, coke, heroin and alcohol are TOTALLY the way to take care of a problem. I wanna grow up to have no verbal control, no controll over my body, have the attention-span of a hummingbird on speed and eat a handfull of pills every day so that the BAD side effects don't kick in. |

| Coolness: 686280 | To be the way he is, Ozzy was doing heroin and coke, and was a hardcore alcoholic. He was also a pothead, but that doesn't count. |

| Coolness: 201915 | For the record, I am not a big fan of anti-depressives / other medication for mental issues. I tried taking effexor and I didn't enjoy the side-effects and stopped... I probably still need it though... But I have seen medication work wonders on some people over time...
The argument that it is "all drugs" that some people say is bunk. Lets take morphine for example... Good for treating pain due to injury and operations in a setting that is safe and controlled (doctors do go to school for a long time for those of you who weren't aware, and know how to medicate people better than someone who reads a few web documents and 'self-medicates'). If someone ends up addicted to morphine from it being used for it's proper function, doctors know how to help end that situation safely. Bad for unsafe, unsupervised recreational use just to get high. It's also selfish as fuck because it might have been stolen from a hospital which inderectly costs society more. In both cases, it's drugs. In one, it's use is used to relieve pain in people who would otherwise suffer. In the other case, it is abused for fun and eventually CAUSES pain indirectly through addiction and its slew of problems. |
