Consequences of drug taking

[Keanu]

Hello, me again.
Could anyone help me understand whether people that take drugs fear the consequences of their drug taking on their body for one? I'm not meaning to lecture, I'm just interested. I as part of being a student drink an unhealthy amount of alcohol and I am well aware of this. Thus, I try to cut down or drink more water, etc.
Do people hold a fatalistic attitude to it all- "I'm going to die anyway, may as well enjoy myself" or is it that people think their body is immune to the risks- that just happens to others that can't handle it,etc.
Thanks.

Definately a fatalistic attitude if that's what it's called... I wanna try everything once n if I like it I'll keep doing it.
I'm prepared to take the risk that I might die one day soon and at least when I die I can say I've done more with my life than a 40yr old who's never tried n e thing 'dangerous'.

Hello,
could you possibly tell me your age or a age group you fit in, e.g. 20-25. Do you think this kind of drug taking attitude is exclusive to your age group? Or is it getting younger/ older?
Thanks.

yeah I'm 18, hang around with 17 to 21 yr olds usually.

Started drugs when I was 13 was most seriously into them when I was 16 n although calmed down a lot I still do em quite heavily compared to most people.

Definately not exclusive to that age group but maybe an average of 14-25 yr olds r the people who mainly use drugs

I've been on speed to help with the depression of being dumped. Speed is shit and so is heroin as I was on that as well. Its very easy to do coke and not get addicted. you just gotta divert yourself. its when you get heavy that your in trouble. cracks a little bit harder though. Everyone gives drugs a bad rap. Daniella westbitch was a heavy coke abuser for SEVEN years and she had a car smash and the whole in her nose was edited, its nowhere near that big. I don't do it too ofter and i certanly dont plough into every wall in my car so im alright.
