Hypothetical question time.
If you could go back in time and change at what age you did what drug, would you do it, what would you change, and why would you change it? You can even decide to have never taken a drug.
lets say, for example, someone smoked tobacco for the first time at 14, weed for the first time at sixteen, shrooms at nineteen, and DMT at 27.
They could say:
I would have never smoke cigarettes, because they suck, smoked weed earlier, because it opened my mind to a lot of new things, and waited till I was mature enough to take psychedelics.
So... what is your answer?
Interesting thread.....
I don't think i would really change anything about the age i first took a drug, or take back trying any certain substance...
I didn't try alcohol or get drunk for my first time until i was 17. Learned very quickly that it was over rated haha....
I smoked weed for my first time when i was 18. 1/2 my friends at the time smoked bud as long as i knew them, and i finally toked up for the first time at the end of my Junior year of High School. Since then, i have fallen deeply in love with this magnificent plant.....
I always had an interest in psychedelics ever since a child, but never knew much about them. I spent about 6+ months researching psychedelics online and at my local library before i ever experience my first trip. I was 19 when i consumed my first dose of mushrooms.
I would say those are my major "first" experiences, which opened up my curiosity even more to experiencing altered states of consciousness. I'm just naturally a very curious person, always been....But i always make sure to do my research on any substance that i plan to experiment with, so i know as much as i possibly can about what i'm going to put into my body and experience...
I have experimented and dabbled with many other substances, 23 to be exact....No regrets

I would have waited until I was ~18 to smoke herb. Everyone around my in my senior year was just getting into it, and I was like "oh, yeah, weed". I think it would have been more fun to be first starting out with my peers, rather than have already been burning for 5 years 
Then again, maybe not...because now I'm ahead of the curve and know whats up
Alcohol...I'm glad I started that early. I had the chance to learn what was up with that before I was old enough to get massive supplies of it and kill myself. I'm a *relatively* responsible drinker now...so next year when I'm 21 I'll be smart enough to not drink myself to death on my birthday. Maybe.
Psychedelics...mmm, I'm not too sure. I'm super sensitive to them. For example, I trip pretty hard on 2 grams of mushrooms, on an 8th, I'm comparable to what most people describe 5 grams being like. I think I can blame this on starting so early, but I'm not sure. I wouldn't take that back...but its not for any specific reason. Since they effect me so profoundly, I only trip a few times a year anyway.
Anything else...meh. Take it or leave it. Whatever. Those are just the three I plan on doing for the rest of my life. The other shit I've done I'm either not proud of, or it was 1 time try it and see what its like thing.
Edit: Oh, right. Original ages. 13 for drinking, 13 for toking, 14 for tripping.
--------------------
Of course it's happening inside your head.
Why should that mean it isn't real?

Yes indeed.
That is the ONE drug I wish I never tried.
I don't feel like typing out the list because it will be a fucking page long, but if you've seen some of the other epic drugs taken lists, mine would match the largest. In fact I have trouble thinking of a drug I haven't tried. JWH is about I haven't tried yet, and a few select RC's, and Mescaline...
LSD doesn't CURE addiction, but it can help you solidify the thought processes that go along w/ rehabilitation of addiction.

To contribute to your thread, My only real drug use regrets are probably how young I started eating mushrooms and the amount of times I skipped school and shit to get pick mushrooms and trip. Kids 
But that's the way shit works I guess. I had to have my eyes opened to the world at some point 
Also, I would have never eaten any amount of methadone, never did me any good.
Overall though I've had some good fun with friends partying with drugs over the years, but I don't condone the lifestyle, however people are gonna do what they want to do.
