The New Drug Culture
Science has done a great job recently of fulfilling the hippie maxim, “Better living through chemistry”. Legal medication has evolved to a wonderful new apex where getting high can easily be, ahem, confused with getting better. After all, getting high IS getting better. And with the FDA behind this glorious vice, consistency and availabilty are increased, while risk (of facing legal troubles) and inconsistent pricing are now a non-issue.
Oxycontin, Percocet, Vicodin, Oxymorphone, Codeine, Fetanyl (sp?) are plentiful and wonderful. Not only that, but the new release of Opana makes it clear that big pharma has no intention to stop the crafting of sublime pills and patches. The new drug culture is here and it is quite an awesome sociological study. Of course, these potent chemicals can be lethal if used with reckless abandon. I, however, have a strong group of friends who have become de facto chemists as we, and the millions of you like us, embrace these medications along with the guidelines of how to use them. This is the new drug culture and should be recognized as similar to the LSD-fueled bliss of the 60’s. Of course there are many differences, but LSD was legal then as the opioid medications are now. No longer should the purveyors and masters of this wonderful spice to the drudgery of modern life be forced into obscurity and hide what pleases them. It’s legal! I will spearhead this call to arms as I poke holes in the drivel spewed by those who stigmatize the use of opioids. I need my readers to engage this discussion and join me in celebrating what makes us happy without harming anyone. This is going to be a major focus of my postings for as long as it takes to grab the attention of like-minded individuals looking for a place to feel joy without the unfair stigma placed on our behavior.
Comment here and share your experiences, opinions, resources, relevant links, etc. The new drug culture is here. Only an ignorant fool could deny its existence and only a selfish masochist could denounce what we do withing the guidelines of the law. It is our right and we will use it to heal the wounds, both physical and emotional, that we suffer in this increasingly dangerous world.
Welcome to the new drug culture. Be proud and keep it positive…

10-29-2008 ~ We have to open our souls and see that the subculture of drugs is becoming more and more prevalent inside the United States. The world’s biggest consumer of all drugs. Yet not be naive and ignore the mass devastation this is causing on the brain cells of U.S. citizens who become addicted and strung out on drugs. Why glorify self-destruction? ~Peta-de-Aztlan ~ Sacramento, California

YES! ………..what’d you say about opiates being legal? Where? Can I get there from here?
Opiates are definitely a two-edged sword, but Jesus, they aren’t THAT bad.
