Week 3 – Your views on drugs and alcohol.
Well, before I tried drugs I thought and agreed with what I was taught. That is, drugs are bad and they only cause problems. That you only get in trouble and hurt your friends and family. That drugs will ruin your life. And not only did I think this because I was taught it, but because my brothers all did drugs and they never got anywhere in life except in trouble. But after I graduated high school and moved away from home I got the opportunity to try drugs (weed, pills, psychedelics, etc.), my opinion completely changed. They’re not as bad as they’re made out to be. Granted, some aren’t that good for you, and some are highly addictive, but as long as you have self-control and don’t abuse and get out of hand with them, they’re very life changing. For the better. Well, I guess for the better for myself. But overall, I really don’t think drugs are as bad as they’re made out to be.
Alcohol is always a love hate relationship, I think. In moderation it’s fine, but when people drink too much, it’s just too much.
