i go both ways on the drug issue. so if i feel like it i will if not i wont. make up your mind and follow your heart. adn dont worry about pressure. there are times thinking about rolling that can give me a headache... so, just be yourself. and how you are will determain what other think of you, not what drugs you do. always be chill and yourself.

no pressure, but it is nice. once in a while imo

i Agree with you

[whenyournex2me]

drugs are everywhere, not just raves. keep in mind drugs are just drugs, and not the reason to go out,,,, to a rave imo. it is the music. adn for that again im guilty, music is a drug. so you got me...

[Dephect]

Explain to them how there are ravers who do drugs and there are also straight edge ravers. You cant blame them though, the media always hypes it up being drug related and other paties.

[whenyournex2me]

not all drugs are bad. maybe its bad for ya, if you over do it.... but imo its good to release and experiment safetly to create a self awareness;.

dont diss it. if you havent tried it. its great, imo, and i like it. but i dont do it often at all. maybe 4 times a year. so compare me with a drug attict. cause imo, this question can be answered in many ways.

society sux and takes the easy route by hating on ravers, rock and rollers, and such, blame them they say, its techno, or its kid rock, how bout the doors, or jimi hendrix, taking a shit load of lsd and still playing the guitar???? i dont get it

i know there are wrost issues at hand in our society

drugs are of minimal concern to me.

in 50 years from now, we may not even be able to live on this fuckin planet. so what about drugs. tell ya what, try it. and if you dont like it. dont do it.

im not addicted to any drug, maybe im lucky. i dk but i do know society makes it bigger than it is.

im pissed.. im lacking sence here, im sorry

I tend to go to raves/ parties sober, and once everyone makes it safe to the afterparty I will eat/dose. I like my buzz to kick in right as the sun comes up! ( Now, I do smoke weed all night before the afterparty :P)

[Dephect]

Hell yeah I know a lot of DJs and promoters like that. They stay sober until the even is over then at the after party its on ha and everyone is drunk trippin rollin stoned.

pee in a cup and throw it at them. ah? but yeah like everyone's already said people are always gonna assume that shit so get used to it. in my area i have to live with it because the majority of people who go to raves do it solely for the drugs and they consider the lights and music a bonus for their high. so that sucks, but whatever.


connor's method: i've got plenty of friends who have to drugs to go out and have a good time. i think that sucks. so i'm the opposite. personally i freak out when i'm out in public on drugs. so when i go to raves or anything, i do it sober and enjoy myself, and if i'm bored at home with nothing to do, that's when i do some experimenting.

[ukeyouee]

I hate to break it to you, but have friends who have known me for 20 years that don't believe me when I say I very very rarely use at raves (I can count the times on one hand in ten off and on years of raves)...it's hard to convince people of soemthing if they choose to not listen to your words - you have to work by your actions, and that can take a long time. If you aren't comfortable with the conversation, walk away...that's about what I've got. I've had to do that with nearly everyone I'm close to at some point - my friends, my family, and my colleagues. A few people will ask questions, but most of them are more comfortable with their asumptions...and while I dislike it, all I can to change those perceptions is keep acting like me and wait for them to look around and wise up.

When I first started glowstringing I thought it was something you only did when you were fucked up. I then realized that just because you like to glowstick and go to raves doesn't mean that you do drugs, and the ones who don't are necessarily straight edge. I love to party but, since I started glowstringing I actually prefer to string sober most of the time. Raving is fun sober or not, it's the closeminded people who have never been to a rave that stereotype people who rave. It also bugs me when people assume that you rave just because you like to glowstick, so if you glowstick you rave and if you rave you do drugs. lol Who cares though, fuck em.
