drugs (in progress)

I've experimented with some non-legal drugs. I passed on it for a long time, up until I was in collage. Partly was, some of our family have had trouble with it, so much that law was involved. Others was I didn't like, and still don't to a degree, having my consciousness altered by substances out of my control. 

Things like weed, should be legalized. The evidence of this can be seen in states like Colorado (there's also Alaska, Oregon, and Washington when I wrote this. There may be more by the time you read this).

Things like heroine, shouldn't be, and we should be doing more to help steer people away, or at least treating them. 

I've done weed, LSD, mushrooms, and ecstasy. 

I won't say I've necessary have had life altering changes, but perhaps minor ones. I don't do them often. 

But stuff prescribed by doctors can also be dangerous. 

I was on Ritalin for most of my young life. It was dangerous as well, and altered my state of mind. I finally had to quit it cold turkey when I thought I had developed multiple personality disorder.
