I am personally amazed I did not ever get charged with anything during my drunken moments on this Earth, I did however have to do the road side Olympics several times, and scored Gold Medals in each event* I never drove drunk, but one time in college got stopped on foot for "running". Yes I was a wasted mess coming back from the bar around 2:15am in the dead of winter wearing a t shirt and was pulled over on campus, just like I was driving a car spot light on me and everything it was really weird. I was looking around like what the hell is going on? I was let go with a warning from Public Intox.

Dude. It's against your God given rights to get f***ed up; is your PO cool? Mine only got pissed about coke or opiates; and I've had 4 PO's. I'd rather do 30 in county (depending on county) than a year of probation.
Good luck though bro, everything happens for a reason. The best part about being sober imo is the tremendous drop in tolerance you get ha ha, seriously good luck to ya.

I've driven drunk a lot. One NY I was so blitzed I was actually seeing triple driving on the highway. Thank the good Lord I never hit any thing/killed anyone. I consider this up their on the most heinous things I've done in my life.

And why is not doing drugs so awful? I am being serious. I hate to say it but do you really need drugs? I mean yeah they make things different but if you really can't alter your perspective or have fun without substance help are you really having fun? Think of it this way I am constantly told that shrooms would change my perspective on life...I doubt this. Why? Because think about it I could alter my perspective by trying something new thats not drugs, or hanging around with someone else for a while. Doesn't have to be drugs. tl/dr: I am that guy that is about to get bitched at for saying I don't need drugs...

I agree @johnnyd, sage advice. @wordsfromasong, depending on the instances and environment I would have diffulcty understanding if you hadn't at least one profound revelation while under the influence. @spencur6, I modded @billybatts, yesterday it was my 58th mod and I feel guilty. I wouldn't mod you for your opinion. I can't convey how psychedelics alter perception in under 2500 words; but the manner with which they do alter perception is unique from any other method.

Oh yeah, I've had profound experiences/revelations on shrooms. But also sober: in a beautiful natural area, in bed with a man, experiencging the death/birth of a loved one, during talks with friends, in prayer, driving down the road, and on and on.

@Peezyhow long you in the drug court? i've never done drug court but i have endured to 6 month stretches of court ordered sobriety, once when i was 15 and one a couple years back. it's no fun, but soon enough, it will be a thing of the past for you. keep your head up, STAY CLEAN, and get the f*** through it!! you're good player!!

I've been straight edge my entire life, and I can say the biggest challenge for me wasn't being tempted (I've never really been tempted - having people I love fall prey to various addictions didn't help either) so much as it was not passing judgment on those that did choose to partake in drugs. These days I think I've gotten to a good "to each his own" place in that regard, but mainly with stuff like weed and (to a degree) mushrooms, things that are more psychedelic than anything else. I still think people that do coke and shoot heroin need to not do that.
Score: 2
You can do it @Peezy if you really want it.Living sober is the best choice I ever made. As a raging alcoholic/addict, my choice was very clear: lose my wife, kids, job, and home - or try rehab/recovery and work very hard at staying sober. I have been completely sober for 8 years now and my life is wonderful with a great family and enough money to travel from MT to see a few Phish shows every year, and all the other good shit that comes with being clear headed and energetic.
I respect anyone's choice to use or not to use. I don't think there is really a right or wrong way to do it unless you are really harming yourself or others, and the way you feel is the best indicator. Many of the funnest times in my life were full-on benders,but the latest ones have been of the natural/spiritual type which includes Phish shows.
If you really want to stay sober but can't, I suggest a 12-step program like AA or NA. There are many people in your area with experiences similar to yours who are willing to help for free.
Score: 3
im 11 months into what should of been a 15 month drug court program but will end up being 17 months when i finish, anyways really glad im not drinking anymore, dont play on drinking again, cant wait to smoke bud again but it feels really nice to have some clarity and let all that smoke clear and not be dependent on substances to function happily in daily life, like you said about the dirty UA's its not the time to f*** around so just stay clean and get high on life, there will be plenty of doobies at the finish line, best of luck to you

I go to ALANON - An affiliation of AA and NA for friends and family members of drug addicts and/or alcoholics. I'm a single mother of an 8 year old son, and If someone hit and killed me as a result of being drunk and driving (or my son being a passenger), I would haunt them. Just saying. I also respect anyone's decision to drink or dabble in drugs, but it shouldn't be taken on the road. I probably am going to get thumbs downed for this comment, or ridiculed in some manner. I'm just saying, as a parent, who can't make the decision of someone getting in their car drunk, don't do it; That's what cabs are for. If you are driving drunk, it's not responsible. End of story.
Bad things have happened in my life as a result of drunk drivers. It's a touchy, soft subject with me.

Of course trying something new, meeting new people, being in nature, hearing a song, etc. can all change your life drastically. I'm just failing to see why pyschadelic mushrooms, which have undeniably changed the lives of thousands, wouldn't also be something to change your perspective.

I go to Phish concerts sober by choice and the music f***s my face. I get high from the music. Just let go. Next thing you know, you are high as f*** and when you look down at your body you realize that you have been dancing for quite some time. I know it sounds cliche but the music alone literally takes me to 'that place.' I love Phish.

Alight drugs are drugs and I feel as though I accept them as a concert enhancer. I don't have a problem with them but this is coming from a kid who has only dosed once and that was at super ball i gave into some pure pressure from a buddy and did. Never did the whole shroom thing although I would like to just for one show when the time is right that is... I usually just drink a lot at shows which lets not forget is a drug too... Conclusion being I don't hate drugs don't like them either I'm neutral but please just don't drive when f***ed up that shit hits too close to home

I should say that drugs and alcohol have seemingly ravaged my life ha ha, its been really hard to get where I am right now, we all have our paths however and it's no one's right to decide "for you" what you should do.(drug court seems "just" to me) Take advantage of the clean time out of jail; or go to jail and you'll understand "clean time" --without nicotine, alcohol or pussy; defecating beside an 18yr illiterate gang member from Detroit who you cannot help. You can get pretty high meditating man, 100% true. Also there are drugs that can't be tested for and aren't on the DEA list yet; blessed thistle is one and it grows wild.
Good luck man, if you need a buzz look organic first please, need help please let me.
