I started on harder drugs
My first experiences with drugs were with small amounts of alcohol and dipping snuff, but I never really enjoyed it and just wanted to fit in with what other people were doing. Then, at a rougher patch in my life I started using caffeine as I had developed a bad habit of procrastinating and used it to do work late at night. I soon started using it less practically because I enjoyed the effects and would just stay up late and listen to music with a crazy buzz. I also started to combine it with hydrocodone. Then at the beginning of the summer I was introduced to nitrous oxide and canabis. I didn't just smoke weed like a "normal" person though I had to get my hands on more nitrous. After doing one box over a 35 hour period(I know because I never slept still using caffeine) I was hooked and by the end of the summer I had spent every penny I had on whipits. Over the entire time I still didn't care for weed or alcohol. When I was finaly able to come back to reality somewhat and quit, I started to use more of the traditional "gateway drugs" like tobacco alcohol and canabis that I had never enjoyed before. I still don't like to drink, at least not excessively, but I do smoke weed and tobacco cigarettes and enjoy both thoroughly. Is it normal to start off on harder drugs and has anyone had similar experience?
