I have never done drugs and I am more hesitant on the legalisation on some drugs. (Not fully convinced though.) I just have the feeling some people on here try to cope by taking drugs which is dangerous. But drug addiction can make your situation way worse. There is the opioid crisis in the US which is very dangerous. Not only the addicts are to blame for it. The greedy pharma industry acts truely evil. In the end you are a grown up adult and you have to decide for your own life.
But here some remarks:
In several clinic stays I have met a lot of people who have destroyed their life and mental health due to the fact they did too much illegal drugs. You always have to remind yourself the situation can always get worse. If your situation seems hopeless and you are really unhappy it is probably not good starting to take drugs in order to cope. I am not fully an expert but I think I have read that psychoactive drugs are very dangerous especially if you are in a situation when you completely feel unhappy. It makes sense to me because psychosis often happens when people are genuinely unhappy about their life and don't see a way to change it. On the other side I am not an expert on safe use for drugs there are probably more competent people than me.
However I sometimes read that members try microdosing with psychedelics. I would be really careful about that if a professional does not support you. I think you can do a lot of damage if microdosing goes wrong. Especially if you had psychosis (schizophrenia) or bipolar this is probably not a good idea. Illegal drugs are extremely dangerous if you had psychosis. You will likely get another one (this also counts for weed.) It would be good if you could try these substances with the help of doctors. (Though I know many insurances don't pay for it.) The substances from the black market are often dangerous and don't have a good quality.
Coping with illegal drugs can do a lot of damage and sometimes it is irreversible or at least very hard to reverse it. I think this can make your situation way worse. It costs a lot of money and some have to live on the streets because they use all their money for the illegal substances. This is a fate that I don't want for anyone in this forum. (Despite the fact there are people in this forum with this horrible fate.)
What are your thoughts on it? I think I am in the minority in this forum because I am hesitant on the legalisation of drugs. Have you made bad experiences with drugs? What would you recommend to other members?
