Is it normal that i have never done drugs?

I'm in my late 20s and my friends are surprised when I tell them I have never taken drugs of any kind. I was not sheltered or raised by strict parents, but I never saw the point in trying. Even though there were plenty of opportunities during high school and college, I always refused.

Am I really weird, or do I just happen to be surrounded by people who do/did drugs?

    I haven't either. Not even alcohol.
    I never judge anyone but people always get very deffensive about it and want to make me drink.
    I think that's the number one reason I still haven't done it.

    People say "YOLO" and shit like that and you should try everything. But those people seem hypocritical to me because they draw a line too:

    Weed consumers say: "Dude, I'd never do coke"
    Cocaine consumers say: "No! I'd never, ever do heroin."
    Heroin consumers say: "Pleeease man, I'LL SUCK YOUR D***!"

    ...Okay maybe heroin consumers don't have a limit, but still. Why can't I just stop at chocolate?

  • You must try as many different things as possible before you die. And seeing as no matter what you do you'll always be doing it in the same old sober state, drugs can certainly be put high up on the list. It can be like nothing else on earth, a dream in real life.

    I'm not saying become an addict, but to never try them could almost be called insane if you take into account mortality and all that jazz. To try everything once is not going to effect your lifespan, and given that there are many healthy people that die before risk takers it seems only to come down to fear.

    You could be dead tomorrow, live for today.

      "To try everything once is not going to effect your lifespan"

      That really depends on the definition of "everything".

      I'm also pretty sure "trying everything once before you die" is not necessary. That's literally the dumbest advice you can give.

    Although everybody talks about drugs, the fact is that MANY have never tried any type of recreational drug.

    It is a good thing not to do drugs but you could try sucking cocks for pleasure.

    Except for alcohol I've never taken any drugs either, so I figure you're normal.

    Drugs can just bypass some people entirely, I put 'not normal' because I'd say you are in the minority, that's ok though. I bet a part of you is curious, and I would strongly recommend the experience - though not all drugs are good; some are fucking awesome (Hicks). As long as you are not on a high-horse anti-drug crusade then it's ok.

    I'd say it's pretty abnormal that you've never done drugs of ANY kind. Because this includes alcohol, nicotine and caffeine and I doubt your parents never offered you a sip of their beer, a friend never passed you a cigarrette or you never drank some coffee or energy drink.

    Even then if you don't want to try drugs, don't. Nobody is forcing you and if they are you are hanging around with the wrong people.

    From experience I can tell that drugs can be hilarious, terrifying and life changing, but it would be impossible for anyone to describe the effects of drugs for you in a way that you would understand.
