Thats cause "you got honest and were applying your program" (according to Straight's twisted reasoning that is). :roll: :roll:
I learned about drugs in that place that I had never even heard about before, ever.....I wonder how many people exaggerated their drug use just to survive that hell-hole. OR, I wonder how many kid's minds became so twised and confused by straight that they ended up believing their drug use was more extensive----which happened to me. I bet both situations happened a lot. Hearing about them in straight only made me curious since I never tried anything before.

i did pot and alcohol, mostly. Well really i was jus' pretty much a pot head who wouldn' go to school and mushrooms and pcp(KW, or who knows) i had been messin' 'round with for a little while 'bout the time i landed up on front row. i did those drugs for 2 'n' a half years. i mean that was my real history, but i exaggerated under pressure too.
i was afraid to try LSD until i went to str8, where i heard all kind o' cool stories about the psychedellic wonderland. i ate acid when i copped out. And later went through a fairly heavy LSD fire. i've come to know a few other drugs since then too.

I can count the times I did pot on one hand before I went in Straight and that goes for alcohol too. I lied on my intake, I didnt tell them I took my moms Vivran
once. I had to add prescriptions to my list.
When I went home, Going to PDAP was a requirement to live with my parents, I was everyones sponser. Staying drug free came very easy to me.

Rattling off that drug list was a real shocker to new parents in Open Meeting too. My drug list was six feet long, but not becasue I had actually done half the drugs on my list....thats the footnote they never let you apply because that would be "minimizing".
I never actually got high of Ny-quil, but I probably took some when I wasnt feeling quite as bad as indicated. Hence, I add OTC drugs to my list. I smoked a joint once that apparently had been laced with SOMETHING, although I dont know with what. That automatically added cocaine, crack, and PCP to my list.
SO when I talked about the drugs I did, boy howdy did it seem like I was a PRIME candidate for treatment!

Funny thing about parental perceptions. I tried Miltown once. Didn't like it. It had about the same effect as having a couple too many beers w/o the enjoyment of drinking the beers. I took it cause I found it in the inner most of about 4 or 5 nested boxes in my mom's closet. I was poking around trying to get a peek at Christmas presents. So, what the hell, I tried it.
My mother would never, ever, admit that she had ever been prescribed Miltown, even though I saw her name clearly printed on the lable. However, when I copped to having used THC (cuz it was in the pot, and I had smoked pot, and so I had to confess to it) she jumped right on that! "Oh my god, where did you even get THC??" "Oh, all the kids did it, Mom." :roll: To compel a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of opinions which he disbelieves and abhors, is sinful and tyrannical.

What is Miltown?

Before Straight:
6+ months before straight I tried Pot 1-3 times.(this becomes fuzzy after Straight's forcing me to believe I did it alot more than reality)
I drank alcohol sometimes on the weekends, mainly with my older brother/sisters and their friends.
On intake that is what I told them, The Truth.
While in Straight after extreme periods of punishment they would lay off "if I got honest" So I would add another drug I'd heard others say during groups. This list turned into :
Pot, alcohol, PCP, cocaine, LSD, Inhalents, OTC, Perscriptions. I'm sure the list grew longer, but am unable to recall it all.
I did nothing for 8ish years out of Straight. Since then, I rarely drink Alcohol(like 2xish a year) and smoke pot occasionally (several times a year)
In all, The only drugs I've ever done with any intent of "getting high or any kind of recreational intent" are Pot, & Alcohol. Both of which have been only a handfull of times over my entire lifetime.

"What is Miltown?"
Just one of those "mother's little helper" type drugs. Ya' know, for nerves. I think it was real popular before Valium. To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success.
