Why do people take recreational drug of abuse?



Answers:
WHAT??
your an idiot - that doesnt make sense!
Do you mean, Why do people abuse drugs? The answer to that question is unanswerable. Because they are dumb. I am on so many meds because of cancer that at times I can't think clearly. I can't wait to be of the prescription meds so I can get my life back so I have NO IDEA why people would abuse drugs. Wouldn't one what to be able to think clearly? Thats what I ask myself when I think about it.

Research wise? People abuse drugs to ease the pain in life I guess, other then that I have no answers. Sorry. Best I could on this question. Take Care and good luck finding an answer to this question. Even drug abusers probably don't know why they do it.
Boredom and bad contacts i think. Masking the pain of inner issues.
because it's fun...
because they are not happy with normal life and dont know how to deal with it maybe. They take drugs then forget about anything else but then that ends up becoming normal life which isnt a life at all. If more people concentrated on the important things like family, friends, goals, dreams and put all there energy into getting the life they wanted and being the person they wanted then they wouldnt feel the need to take them in the very first place.
In general I think people do it as a way to let off steam ( If we are talking about recreational drugs here ) The government figures published on the harmful effects of recreational drugs are so wrong it is stupid..

I do not now but in the past have taken Cannabis, Ecstasty, Cocaine and Ketamine.. I have had no bad side effects and managed to Hold down a decent job..

It is in my opinion not the drug that is harmful per se but their are some people who should not use them because their bodies can not process the chemicals within the drug.

Still if you do not do them that is your choice as it is the choice of people to do them if they wish...
I AGREE WITH THE GUY ABOVE!
usually to escape an undesirable situation in their life.
Some folks hang out in crowds where it's the cool thing to do. We naturally want to be like our peers. If you're in a situation like that it can be difficult to say no due to peer pressure.

Some drugs such as tobacco hook you in, so once your hooked, it's not really a choice.

I think another aspect is the getting high. We have lost our natural high due to the types of foods we eat and our lifestyles. Kids still have it to a degree.

With full health comes a natural high better than any drug out there. But we can only reference our own experience.

Unfortunately, some folks don't know or have forgotten what a natural high feels like, and yet we all yearn for it and it feels like somethings missing if we're not feeling good.

I run a website that's all about getting high the natural way. Check it out if you like, the link below will take you there.

I am of an age that there was little drug use when I was young. Like all youngsters I did some crazy things. In my time a fly woodbine behind the bike shed or a bottle of beer was considered the height of depravity. It is just a matter of degree. The problem is that even minor levels of experimentation can these days lead to death or a life ruined by addiction.
