why do people like to be poisoned?

[.lava]

hi i've seen many times people feel so relaxed when they drink alcohol or when they do drugs they feel freer. do we really need to poison ourselves to stop thinking and feel relaxed? i personally do not think so. i believe we can reach any kind of mood by using our free wills.

you're trying to oversimplify and overgeneralize. People do different things for different reasons, and there is a difference between responsible indulgence and reckless compulsion.

Some people think that they cannot have fun without drinking. There are lots of people who can control how much they drink but for those who overdo it, I think they use that form of addiction to forget whatever problems they might be facing.

I get a natural high from laughing.

Lately I've been laughing a lot, and I don't even know why. Seriously... I just think everything is funny... I don't even take any more pills than usual... just some if I have a headache, like I always do...

It's weird too, because I should be really mad, but instead I feel like I'm high... but I didn't do any drugs.

Stoned with what?? Seriously, it doesn't matter, because then sometimes I feel really depressed. I only find everything to be funny some of the times. Maybe there is a gas leak... But only some of the times......

i don't wonder why people do drugs or drink alcohol. what makes me wonder what happens to them when they do. for example there's someone i know. someone i actually would like to stay away. he is very macho, extremely aggressive and angry all the time. he does not smile. i mean it, he does not. when he drinks alcohol he changes. he smiles, chats, jokes. in general you could not talk to him because in five minutes he manages to start a fight. that guy goes away, another one comes along. why? he is just one example. that sorta bothers me because i think this is tragic. he becomes a lovely person only when he is little drunk.

He needs to go see someone..He's too wound up...Or..he's a raging alcoholic who feels like crap unless he has a drink...

But that isnt right...to never smile..and be a butt hole..unless you drink... you are correct about that....

Why do people ask stupid questions?

Okay, so I don't really think your questions is stupid. I'm trying to make a point. What I interpret as stupid is different from your interpretation. What you interpret as "poison" and "pointless", another could interpret as something else.

The simple answer is that people drink because they can. Some feel the need to. A cheap drink to drown out some of your problems is a lot better than going on the streets to get into fights or other methods of relieving life's miseries. Some may not think this is the case, or the right way, simply because they don't have that kind of misery or have learned other ways, but many things are easier said than done.

I like that alcohol makes me feel warm. SO does dayquil though.

Aside from the primary effects, drugs have the unusual characteristic of having unintended meditative qualities. When we take drugs, we focus our attention on our bodies; that is one of the simplest and most effective meditation techniques.

Geee. I dunno. I come from a family with a horrible problem with alcoholism, fought alcoholism myself, It IS poison to me. I just don't touch the stuff.
That's for me tho & I don't judge others. I've never done drugs, had enough trouble with booze.
