But drugs in general, no need or desire.  Don't like to smoke anything.  And just like to feel really good, not many drugs hit that feeling.  A fun sexy woman to date for a long time is a much better drug.  Booze, the next day feeling sucks.

Now are steroids drugs for this list?

I hope they aren't still doing this. That sounds totally messed up and wrong on every level.

Yes, I know it sounds wrong, but the thing I can say is in certain situations, it's better to be your absolute best, even if it's artificial. An example is a professional football player is getting his start and wants to be able to play his absolute best, for the win, his team, his contract, etc. So he gets his meds, etc, to play. I know, this is basically for entertainment, but his millions may be on the line.

Now, back to my story. I don't know how familiar people are with the projects, like Cabrini Green was in Chicago, and others around the US. I have been in military war zones, and I can honestly tell you some parts of certain cities are war zones, worse than the military ones. We needed to be on top of our game, mistakes are bad and can end in tragedy. Worse part, this isnt for millions, this is for under $100k and lives are on the line. There's no absolute game plan, just training. Probably the worst I saw was busting in a door, and 3 male subjects had babies duck tapped to themselves, around their chests, to prevent us from shooting at them, while holding rifles and machine guns. Turned out the weapons they had were fakes or BB guns, and the hope was the Cops would bust the door in and see the guys with guns and would shoot, killing the babies strapped/tapped to their chests to make a statement that the city was taking their homes away and the Cops were killing infants to get it done. My goodness!

I was the first one through the door, and proud to say that not a shot was fired by anyone, and the babies (all under 1 years old) were unharmed, except for the bad rash/tape burns from when the paramedics removed the tape from the babies bare skin.

So, am I happy I got a few shots and was dialed in or zoned in to not start firing 3 crazy males with fake rifles and guns. You bet your ass.

But, I completely understand your thinking. I wish this world was not like this or I had a magic button to make this stuff not happen. Unfortunately I don't, and am so thankful none of us doped up Cops killed any of these innocent babies. I went to the hospital afterwards and held one of the unclaimed babies for hours as I balled my eyes out and we both fell asleep for several hours.

Next day, back to work and back at it. This World can be a real fucked up place. I'm not saying it's right, but please don't look at it like we were wrong. All off this, so the city can build luxury places for people to live and collect very high taxes and not pay for section 8 housing projects.

I'm glad I did what I did. Don't have to do it anymore. Just told the story to present a different view on drug use. It seems drugs take your money and eventually destroy your life or those around you. But, I believe people have a choice to do what they want as long as they aren't hurting anyone. So, my stance would be to make them legal, tax them, and enjoy the heck out of life! Most people will be getting them anyway.

Just an opinion. I really just want people happy and everyone's life to be the best it can be. I'm always here to help, if you need something from me, shoot me a PM

Forgive me. I wasn't trying to pass judgement on you. I doubt you would have been given what you were given without reason. It was more, it's crazy that this sort of thing is needed. I think it highlights the risks and sacrifices that are made. The damage these things can do isn't easy to measure, and I'd love to imagine a world where none of this happened. However, it would never happen.

Oh my, please, there is no need to ask for forgiveness and I know it wasn't a pass of judgement. Your words are very kind. I thank you for giving me a chance to vent a bit and for reading my response. And I'm right there with you in saying that I would love for things like this to not happen and have a world where things like this don't exist, maybe that's the HOPE of Heaven? Holding that baby at the end, knowing he was safe, has a hard to explain in words, the immense peace and goodness that exists in this world. That is what I try and take from those types of incidents, remember that goodness instead of the dress. Now if there was a drug like that, I believe I would indulge! Lol.

Again, no need to ask for forgiveness. I never took it that way, and I can completely understand your view on the matter. I do thank you for your insight and everything else. I'm blessed to be here and honored we shared our views and stories.

Hope you have a great weekend!

As for things I've tried. Well everything pretty much honestly. I was a heroin addict for 11 years and been clean for 2 now. I dont think someone should be punished for an addiction, I think they need help. Theres a mental health problem in there somewhere and it needs to be addressed and treated accordingly not punished. Addicts aren't bad people, we didnt ask for it. It just happened. For me I had major back surgery when I was 15 and was prescribed heavy stuff and got hooked that way. I functioned for a long time went to college for computer science landed a good job, but it being illegal I fell into the wrong crowd and ended up hurting my future forever.

I definitely don't think that all drugs are good and we should try them, but at the same time there are some sorts of marijuana that I use and I don't think they have a bad impact on me. Instead I smoke weed sometimes and this can help me relax. I don't mean that you should do the same, this is just my vision.
