I'm turning 21 in a couple of days. I've never been under the influence of anything ever. I don't even get sleepy when I take NyQuil, which is like the closest I've ever gotten to drugs.
My parents never smoked or drank around me either, not even socially, but they used to do it when they were young of course. Because of them, I used to think that being straight edge was normal, but now that I'm older, it seems like all people ever do is smoke and drink. Even my old school friends do it, they just never talked about it with me. NEETs and random little old people at my job tend to have some drug of choice too. It makes me feel like a weirdo honestly, so i guess it's about time I try it. Then I can have something to talk about with people at least.
I don't think I can get really drunk because I will only have a chance to try it with my parents around, but I hear being "buzzed"/"tipsy" is what most people do anyways, and it isn't as scary as full drunkedness. Do people become totally different when drinking? It's just baffling to me how everything seems to change with just a glass of beer or whatever. I've read about people with severe social anxiety becoming outgoing and normal once they start drinking which just sounds ridiculous to me. Is the influence really that dramatic or is everyone just pretending that it's nicer than it actually is?
Also any info about weed and cigarettes and other stuff would be cool too, I know tons of people at work who do these things, but it'd be weird of me to ask them these specific questions so thats why I'm asking on SS haha
