Gotta echo some people here, I did a lot of various drugs over a roughly 18 month period because I was very curious but I set myself a line when I started and I never crossed it. My line was heroin and needles. Made some good friends in those days who had the same view of drug-use, and got to know a few very well who hadn't set a line for themselves - the ones who didn't ended up in detox several times (or dead, in one case) while the rest of us had more or less 'no trouble' quitting as we sated our curiosity.
So in my experience it's all about how you approach it. Have a healthy respect for and awareness of the possible dangers and peer pressure situations you may face and you'll most likely be fine. Jump in without thinking and planning ahead and you're gonna end up having a bad time in the long run.
So, tw1st, you're absolutely right to cut him loose. It's sad as hell, but you'll most likely end up as a victim in one form or another if you keep trying.
Iv only got one friend that uses hard drugs occasionally, when thats said iv only got 4 friends that uses drugs
Anyways, it seems like a lot of people KNOW they are very mentally strong and won't ever be a victim of drug abuse. But at one point it seems to take over their lives. Suddenly they find themselves using drugs alone on a weekday, really sad :/
Lost a distant friend some weeks a go, he was best friend with MY best friend. The reason he stayed a distant friend to me was because I really didn't want to hang with him. My friend has been a pot head for a long time, but this guy we know would end up in rehab sooner or later... and he did. Sad to see the last facebook pictures he posted. One of the pictures was uploaded to FB only 2 days before he shot himself with a shotgun He loved life and got caught up in it
