Lets say a 15 year old was experimenting with different drugs. At 13 tried alcohol, at 14 weed&ciggs, at 15 salvia,ecstasy,hydrocodones, codiene syrup, synthetic heroin, and cocaine. Only using weed and alcohol regularly. I was just wondering to YOUR knowledge on these drugs what modern society might think of that.
Trying weed and alcohol at that age is typical of most people. It's not socially acceptable, but it's normal. The rest of the stuff is not. Everyone thinks they can do the other stuff from "time to time" and quit anytime they want. Problem with that is this. Every crackhead (or meth head or burn out)is someone's daughter or son. Every crackhead is someone's Dad or Mom.
Keep in mind that it CAN happen to you. My uncle was a crack head. Always told me he could quit and go months without doing it and it wouldn't bother him, and he could go months without a problem. Problem he had is that when he would get down in the dumps he would "just do it once" to help himself feel better. He ended up hooked on it and offed himself. Guess what, he was a normal guy that had a sister, brother, etc.
You'll never know until its too late how NOT worth it this is...unless you stop now.
And you'll get your answer as to how society feels about this by the kind of post we (society) put on here.
You can always change. Not everyone who does drugs like that as a teenager grows up to be a criminal - people who tell you that are just fear mongers.
I am 26 years old and use marijuana daily, but I don't think weed, alcohol, cigarettes, and drugs should be used by persons under the age of 16. Your brain and body is still developing. Teenagers especially, are going through so many extreme physical changes, not to mention all the typical issues like peer pressure, school, self-image & esteem, sex, relationships, etc. I think kids should try to stay clean because drugs would just complicate an already confusing time.
That's my opinion. My parents smoked marijuana while I was still at home, but they always made it perfectly clear that it was for adults only and I never tried it until I was 19. I've never done any other drugs, however, I would like to try mushrooms one day.
Uh, no, not normal. Especially not at that age. Experimenting with weed at say 16-17? Normal. Doing all those drugs at 15? Not normal.
I don't think age has anything to do with it, but it's just not normal for a person to do that. Only exception would be alcohol wich is accepted by society, but furthermore you should just stay away from drugs.
Well Im going to share what I have done during my 20 years on this earth. At around 6-7 yrs of age I first took my first sip of alcohol. I didn't get drunk however until I was 11 or 12. At 12 I tried cigs but they tasted awful and made me cough so never tried them since. At 14 I first tried weed and loved it ever since. At 16 I first tried pills(hydrocodones),syrup and cocaine. I didn't like the pills but really enjoyed the syrup high,almost like a weed high but more relaxing. The coke was a hell of a drug for me. At 20(now) I tried salvia. Awesome life changing experience that everyone should try at least once. I now just smoke weed out of a vape every night. My future drug choices are shrooms,excstasy,bars(pills),Dmt,and of course Lsd. Never trying any hardcore addicting drugs like heroin,meth, or any of that junk.
alcohol and weed are probably alright, and the rest that u mentioned were only a one time thing, then ur probly ok. when u start to develop a regular habit, is where the problems begin. you should know if u have an addictive personality, just be real cafeful and do a self critique and ask yourself if its getting out of control. although u ARE very young, and really should be worried about your grades and your future. where do you want to be in the future? having a nice house, posh car, etc, or being a janitor in a roach infested apartment driving a ten year old
hyundai that leaks oil? what u do now has a direct connection
to how successful u will be. im not saying u shouldnt have fun
and kick it with ur friends, just recognize whats important and
don't be regretting it later.
see that if drugs are going to cause u to
when i was 12 i started to smoke weed, 13 i drank, 14 i smoked and tried ecstasy... then was addicted to it by the time i was 15... and ended up doing it for 4 months straight every day, doing acid and mushrooms and other prescription drugs.. then finally was able to stop completely when i was just 17, im now 19 and only smoke weed, dont even drink.... i totally regret what i did when i was younger and am definitely now seeing the damage i did to my brain and body. :(
It is soooooo sad to think that no-one cares enough to discipline this kid and is allowing them to destroy their life. I hope they wise up enough to realise they need help and grow out of this stupidity, and live long enough to live a productive life.
Whiskey, heroin, cocain. but i'm not adficted.
♪Whiskey in the jar oh yeah♪
I'm not here to judge or anything. This is just my opinion. At that age, I can see the whole weed thing. The rest of that is bad. But, its a persons life..
im 17, i started using heroin at 6, by the time i was 9 my asshole was a pound of grinded meat, not because of the heroin, because i shoved a bunch of exacto blades up it when i was higggh, so never boil potatoes while ironing your pants...
fuck the prick! if he want's to kill himself after it was explained to him that it's gonna mess him up , i say let him do it!
Lol its actually pretty normal to try the soft core stuff at that age like weed and alchol but like the guy above me said Dont do shiit like dont fuck with the white stuff but by the sounds of it you might just go out and try it cause everyones telling you not to and it sounds like your probsbly some caucasian white teenager in the suburbs am I right ?
hey brotha... comin from a hippie here, only do completely natual stuff.... like shrooms, or weed.... never do crack, or speed.... they mess you up man.... love and respect yourself enough to say no.
I see people everyday who have been absolutely ruined by drugs. They are hookin' on the streets, covered in open sores, have hepatitis, and STDs and they will never get out of that lifestyle. It's really sad. They will be poor for the rest of their lives, and they don't care. They don't have family, or real friends cuz they alienated themselves. They only use ppl for drugs or money to get drugs. STOP before it's too late!!! Most ppl don't realize there is a problem until it's too late. Very few become productive CLEAN members of society again.
So sad. Somethings wrong in your life to make you want to escape into drugs.
Also, I don't want you to be a burden to society when you can't function anymore. I'm taxed enough already.
You should get help right now. You are still young, it might not be too late..
A lot of those drugs will only damage you and your life.
Well I'd wonder where said young teen gets the money, and what criminal connections they have for suppliers. And then, the childish candy store attitude & poor judgement towards a lot of hard drugs. Put them together and its bad news. "Modern society" is an abstraction: where is your common sense?
It's not good, you'll end up with an addiction or a few of them.
Fair enough, I smoked when I was 15 and drank and did some weed but I woke up and realised that doing that shit every day pratically would end up destroying me eventually.
So I quit weed, still smoke and drink now but I drink sensibly.
Not normal to do so many drugs.
Unfortunately, although this isn't something you SHOULD be doing, it is normal in today's society I believe.
And those drugs are BAD will totally ruin their life and the friends I have are teens in my youth group so it's not just bad kids who rebel against their parents. These friends i know i would die in a heartbeat for no doubt in my mind and they are good people. If you met them you would never think they are/were on drugs. And I couldn't agree more. It can happen to anyone. And it does daily. Those kids like a comment above said are someones someone. Just please help them and understand them. And help them stop. Idk what my friends do/did and I'm not really all that in to knowin what drugs are u could wave weed or heroine or crack in my face and pass it off as sugar or grass for all I know. I just know it ruins lives. Bad!
It's gonna ruin their life. I have several friends who have/had probs with drugs and just talkin about it makes them crave the drugs again. My opinion if you no somebody who is highly addicted to drugs get them some help. Expecially at 15 that's scary bad. It could really ruin their life.
Modern society thinks that is terrible. That's why we have laws against drugs. Drugs are bad for you and those around you. They are bad for society because we have to pay to keep you in jail or rehab while you ruin your own body and ignore the consequences. Good luck growing up into a healthy, productive adult.
well the kid probably done it to look cool and should one day relise that looking about 90 at age 30 isnt as cool as they think lol
totally normal-
it depends
if the 15 year old was raised in that environment he's most likely to get into that kind of stuff
but if the 15 year old didn't grew up with that influence he might be getting influenced by his so called "friends" at school or his neighborhood-
the thing is chill-
he/she's going to be fine- maybe he need some parenting figure- and it's ok to smoke sometimes- i smoke my stuff sometimes but i can quit whenever i want so want so maybe he changes idk xD
