Drugs as in perscription from youre doctor would not be bad.

Ermm yeah, what kind of stupid question is that? Long term use or overdose or mixing will **** you up, plain and simple. They arent 'good' for you in any way, might give you a temporary buzz but nothing that will give you more gain than not using them in the first place.

Depends on the drug and the dose.

What's with everyone getting the Slayer avi's and sig's? I sincerely hope that everyone's actually listened to the band before putting these up, especially in the '80's and '90's.

Not only can some drugs kill you if you don't take the proper dosage, it costs huge amounts of money to buy the drugs. Many children live in poverty because of drugs.

im sick of the drug topic. always ends up with some tool trying to
tell me that alcohol is not a dangerous and highly addictive drug.
then we get into the circular argument:
its a drug because its illegal
its illegal because its a drug
**** that. im out *leaves*

At the end there you should have said *makes like a tree* because that would also mean 'leaves', but just in a different way.

My word is law? Where did you get that from? You severely lack reading comprehension. Of course you can go where you please, I am just suggesting to you where you might fit better. As for the friend thing, well, whatever.
Lets return to the topic.
Of course there are drugs that are really bad for you. But it depends on the drug you use and the amount you take in. I do not know what the point of this thread is as that is a well known fact. Maybe he wanted to discuss if medical drugs are indeed more harmful than they do good. In that case I would say no. They are good for you usually, though apparently not in a way that school medicine would like us to believe.

This is true. Apparently alcohol is way worse than Marijuana. Cigarettes as well. Which of course makes one wonder as to why some drugs are legal and others aren't.
Rogue Jedi
marijuana, in my unprofessional opinion, should not be illegal. it's no worse for you than cigs are. i have heard that it is illegal cuz the US has no way of taxing it.

That sounds like a weird reason. Obviously they could tax it like any other product of they made it legal. It would also take care of other social problems.
Rogue Jedi
its just what someone told me once. i didnt say there was any validity to it. there has got to be some reason why it is illegal. its not that harsh of a drug.

Marijuana used to be legal in the US. Prohibition made both alcohol and pot illegal. They just didn't bring back pot.
As for my opinion on the subject, I'm not going to say that drugs are good for you but some of them aren't necessarily bad. I smoke ganja on a regular basis and I'm doing fine. You CANNOT overdose on marijuana. You CANNOT overdose on 'shrooms (I did, however, have a seizure once

). You WILL NOT be driven to madness the first time you smoke.
I've done 'shrooms a few times and I smoke weed. I took some coke once but I didn't really like it so I haven't done it again. I haven't done anything else but have been told by people whom I have a great deal of trust in that acid and ecstasy are fun.
Pretty much drugs come down to one thing, moderation. Just like everything else in life, if you take too much of it, it can be bad for you
Rogue Jedi
i had acid once. i had a baaaaaaaddddd trip. i was freaking out.
Marxman
Yea, it happens. I had the seizure because I was already having a bad trip and trying really hard to change the mood of the trip. I went outside to watch the sun rise but it was too cold. I didn't say anything because my friends who I was tripping with wanted to watch too. So, I had a seizure for the first time in my life. It was really weird but after that I was tripping BALLS!
Bad trips can have a lasting emotional effect of people but most don't cause physical damage. Its a chance you take. My advice if you're going to trip is to find out as much as you can about it. Ask friends you trust you have tripped before, look up things on the internet, just get informed on what you are doing. When you know what you're doing you'll be more calm about it when you actually do it and you won't have the problem of freaking out once it starts. Most bad trips are simply people getting caught off guard by the psychedelic experience and getting scared by it.
And if you have a bad trip just remember, it'll be over in a couple hours.

yes it does matter, since it probably doesnt kill brain cells. i see what your saying, the triviality of it, but still it matters. parroted disinformation like "it kills braincells" or "its a gateway drug that will posess people to shoot up heroin" are the wind in the sails of idiots who want to keep this plant categorised with coke, heroin, and meth as a deadly drug. it matters
Soleran
Dude just about everything kills brain cells, pure oxygen kills brain cells, not enough oxygen kills brain cells. I feel fairly certain that it very well could have a negative affect on brain cells, alcohol kills brain cells as well and its legal.
I don't know, defending a drug based on its ability to kill or not kill brain cells is kind of worthless. This drug in my opinion doesn't belong in the same category as some of the more highly addictive and dangerous drugs ie meth, coke etc.

fact is not based on what you feel, fact is simply what is. and it has never been proven, despite an immeasurable amount of federal dollars dumped into research hoping to prove otherwise. its not like its just some theory yet to be explored. for the past 80+ years the u.s. government has had a raging hardon over trying to prove marijuana dangerous, and after all that all they can determine is that it temporarily decreases memory and is moderately addictive for some...in other words you may be really cranky for a while if you're a pothead on the wagon.
with that said, the fact stands that it has never been proven to kill brain cells. that ends that part of the discussion for anyone with more than two brain cells to rub together

i wasnt using such knowledge to defend a drug. i was using this knowledge to thwart a lie, and i am just in doing so.
you can assess whatever value on such information as you please. however pointing out false facts in such a debate it essential to move it into the realm of fact as opposed to wives tales and fiction. if you feel thats trivial then by extension this whole topic is trivial and maybe you should debate elsewhere if thats the case.

Becuase this is the study of THC not Tobacco. The only reason they said smoke weed and not tobacco is becuase they had to be sure the effects were being caused by the weed not the tobacco. If they used people who smoke weed and tobacco the results wouldn't be conclusive becuase they wouldn't know if it was caused by the tobacco or the weed or both.

no, it suggests rather bluntly that weed is more damaging to the lungs than tobacco based on that. since it is incomplete, being that there was no control (smokers of tobacco and not weed) i find it odd that they would include that and imply so much.
im not trying to debunk the study as a whole, but that part should have been left out as its baseless.

you're either being deliberately dense of you just cant grasp simple logic
a simple "pot also is harmful to the lungs similar to that of smoking cigarettes" would have been accurate. that would not imply that it is more or less dangerous...especially with a complete lack of evidence to support it besides circumstantial and illogical observations.
the only way to properly assess which is more dangerous would be to either
a- have two groups, one which smokes pot but no cigarettes, and one which smokes cigarettes but no pot
or
b-split a group of people which have tried neither cigarettes nor pot and have each smoke their designated drug.
either of these would produce substantial evidence
substantial evidence is NOT having one group which already takes smoke into their lungs routinely, and another which never takes smoke into their lungs, unless the study is simply "does smoking cause immediate harmful effects to people who have never smoked?". (not needed, i know, but that is the only purpose such data would be relevant for)
accept it, that portion of the experiment is flawed. i guess you could just seal your ears shut and smoke about a 1/2 ounce of weed until your sense of logic is adequately dulled, and then you can feel right by continuing to say its not flawed

They really can't say Smoking Weed maybe worse on your lungs then smoking potpourri because people don't smoke potpourri at least the last time I checked. If they are going to use something as a comparison the only thing they really have to compare it to is tobacco.

Yeah, but to say maybe it is worse than smoking tobacco..they should just say "Smoking Marijuana is bad for your lungs... a little". Not imply that it could be worse than tobacco without even a bit of data supporting that.

Their evidence doesn't imply a whole lot at all, does it? And no, it wouldn't, since tobacco would not be mentioned at all. They leave it open without implying something.

is utter horseshit and kinda destroys the credibility of the study. whoever wrote that probably thought this moot point was the cherry to top his/her perfect study, but it really beams as a disclaimer: (just because you have a degree in science/chemistry/medicine, doesnt mean you have a degree in simple deductive logic)

Hmmm are drugs bad for us.
Yes, they may be pleasurable, but they do have an adverse affect on your body physically one way or another. Occasional use I have no problem with. Even over the counter drugs have adverse affects on your organs.
But talking about some illegal drugs:
Pot does impair thinking, audio and memory.
Speed, crank..etc. really destroys your neurological systems and bones and later on causes chronic pain needing more drugs to numb the pain the damage it has done to your and nerve endings... even once you stop taking it, of cause that being that you were a strong user.
Coke is the real thing......no, just kidding.......
Valium and downers makes one lose bone density like really bad. It, when you are older will attribute to osteoporosis, easy bone fractures...blah blah blah......

All, including alcohol and caffeine.
Rogue Jedi
man, i am super hooked on caffeine.
debbiejo
I love lattes and cappuccinos, but you are right, caffeine is addicting and it is also bad for you. It pulls water from your body. It's a diuretic.
debbiejo
sorry, I meant diaretic....I think that is how it's spelled........ya know it takes water from you........like those pills people take........diaretic pills.

Caffeine isn't a laxative or I'd be shitting my pants 24/7 because all I drink is soft drinks.
debbiejo
It's more coffee that does that. I suppose the sugar in soda does something to make it not as effective.

Ohhh. Well yeah..I see what you guys mean on that now. I just thought you meant "all" caffeine. I would totally have a toilet planted to my ass if so because I don't think I ever put any other drink to my mouth besides soft drinks and maybe Propel Fitness waters occasionally. Yeah, bad I know.

Which drugs do you mean? Alcohol and cigarettes are legal, regularly used by a lot of people, but excessive use has been proven to be unhealthy.
Narcotics can damage important organs, especially in youngsters still developing. They affect the mental state so even if they're not affecting you physically immediately, you're more likely to do something dangerous than if you're level-headed.
You can become dependant on them, as with a lot of things. I suppose that's a danger, but as I'm a smoker I can't really comment
Hallucinogenics can cause damage in later years, such as vivid flashbacks.
Having said all that, I was a recreational drug user and enjoyed myself immensely. I've stopped recently (over the last 6 months) because other things in my life have taken precedence over getting absolutely wasted on a regular basis. Alcohol usually gets me well on my way now and I can function with a hangover.
I would never recommend drugs to anyone, but I know I had a damn good time

Rogue Jedi
i had my good times too. the confidence that ecstacy gave me was unreal. i felt 10 feet tall and invincible.

Duhh no matter what drug they are made for you to..., spend all your money,kill you, and get you into trouble.
Rogue Jedi
i got out of it before i got into trouble, thank god.

coffee/cigrarettes/weed never made me spend all my money or get in trouble...true that tobacco might kill me though. thank god it not considered a drug. that makes it better. same as what consoles victims of alcohol abuse.

The fact that it's legal?

Brainwashing.
Rogue Jedi
brainwashing? thats a theory.
Syren
Well, I mean advertising promoted cigarettes for god knows how long and then, almost suddenly, the advertising was banned because smoking 'became' unhealthy. According to my nan, smoking was only ever seen as the thing to do in her day, people were 'brainwashed'. Theoretically ermm
Rogue Jedi
for years the issue of banning cigs advertising was an issue. they finally got the law passed, but it wasnt all of a sudden.

It's how it appeared to the general public though. Advertising for cigarettes and smoking was everywhere, really in your face, then it was banned. It seemed sudden and a lot of people who started smoking decades ago feel used. I know my generation really have no excuse for smoking, because we do know better. But my mum's generation and further back than that do have a reason to feel 'brainwashed'. Maybe the wrong term, but you get my drift?

That's all the government does with drugs. Its not that drugs are evil, its the drugs they haven't figured out how to make money off of yet. ADHD medication, depression pills, pain killers, they all effect your body, are potentially harmful, and addicting.
When I was in the hospital recently for Ulcerative Colitis I would be getting massive stomach pains. They would shoot me up with Dilaudid, a pain killer even more potent than Morpheme. If you've ever seen Trainspotting, when they shot up and they would completely zone out with a nothing but a smile on their face, thats how it felt. I would ask for it even when I wasn't in pain and the doctors had no problem hooking me up. I'd get the usual, "What's your pain on a scale of 1 to 10" and I'd sit there, wince a little and say anywhere from 5-10 and that was good enough for them. But when I told them I smoked pot they freaked and said "That's bad for you, you should stop!"
That's why the legalization of marijuana would help everybody, except the drug dealers of course.

drugs, illegal and for medical purposes, cause harm in your system. in the end, there is no such thing as a good drug.
