The firs time I really thought about this it was one of those moments where you go "yeah.. wtf?".
Why is it that if I have some condition where I receive a prescription from a Dr. for something like vicodin or xanex, society views it as OK to take the drug to suppress the effects of the condition I'm suffering from, but not OK to take the drug recreationally and responsibly to experience the effects it can have on a person?
It's this one little difference, everything else is exactly the same, the only difference is you want to get high instead of suppress pain. You want to have fun with it instead of use it how you're supposed to use it.
Now, I'm not an idiot, I understand the risks of overdosing on drugs. I'm just curious as to how you, personally, think about this?
I have a couple friends who feel like every single 'drug' is bad if it's not prescribed by a doctor or you can get it over the counter, and everything else, like weed or probably even aloe you could grow in your garden is bad.
