No, I'm just not interested in recreational drugs or alcohol. I for some reason just don't feel like it and don't want to, at least not yet.

Plus, anything I take that directly modifies how I feel and act scares me somehow. Especilly anti dipressants.

The reason is you are afraid.

Weed makes everything a lot more interesting.

Hallucinogens make everything exponentially interesting. Whether that's a good or bad is in the eye of the beholder. Powerful ones though, weed's like the weakest hallucinogen.

Weed is not a hallucinogen. Not even close.

Hey I'm not the one who classified it. Go complain to whatever scientist or group of scientists who dubbed it mildly hallucinogenic.

I had a strand once called Golden Goat that straight up made me hallucinate. That was the night I recorded half of Knuckle In the Mud.

I just don't want to do it though. Roller Coaster rides can be fun but some people don't want to ride them.

When I turned 16, which at the time was the drinking age here, everyone all of a sudde.ln started talking about alcohol and drugs,and I kinda felt like I was the only one who wasn't interested. Also, all sips of alcohol I've tasted so far I do not like the taste of at all.

First off, nobody swallows a hand full of anti depressants and says, "ooo let me go drop this track.."Except Nick Drake, and that was more along the lines of 'ooo let me swallow this bottle of anti depressants and die' .

Secondly the point of drugs, is to directly alter the way you feel. (just throwing that out there.) I have nothing against those who don't take drugs, but I feel as though, at least smoking a doob is a right of passage. After you try something, and decide you don't like it , that's one thing, I can respect that. Hey I tried it, I didn't like it.

People in your case however have always just struck me as control freaks. I don't want to do this because I am afraid of how I will react to it, and the thought of me being outta of control of my actions doesn't appeal to me. Which in that case I formulate the same opinion, dude relax and trying being out of control, it might be beneficial to you in some ways.

I think certain drugs are 100% beneficial to people, LSD, Mushrooms, X and weed. They change your out look and perception on life, and it almost always influences people for the better, it's just that the negative stories about these drugs get more hype then any positive stories because well, "The war on drugs" is big business.

In my own life, I would not be nearly as understanding and tolerant of a person as I am if it weren't for me dropping acid. I wouldn't know, nearly the amount of music, good music that I know if I hadn't spent countless hours tripping my face off, throwing my back out while dancing in the dirt, and listening to music. The album that changed my life with two hits of very potent ALD was The White Album. (As cliche as that sounds) it's true. And the love of music, my patience, my understanding, my tolerance, I owe completely to drugs.

So what's prude supposed to mean? Exactly what I said. Or, LOOSEN UP, CONTROL FREAK!

P.S. A doob or 11, or a trip or two might help to rectify your currently boring avatar situation.
