People who take drugs in my eyes are stupid. People who can't enjoy life for what it is. You control your own destiny and if your not happy in yourself/life then do something about it.
then go and take your record collection and set fire to it...
I have to say that if you think drugs haven't had some positive effects on art, music, culture, literature... then you are breathtakingly naive
to answer your question - i have taken drugs - - long long time ago, and i enjoy good wine now...
why did i do it? simple - experimentation, new way of looking at the world, drugs if taken sensibly can be a huge creative tool (again - if you don't believe this - take your record collection and set fire to it)
why do i take these things? so i don't end up having knee-jerk attitudes such as yours...
there are a billion reasons why people take drugs and 70% of the time it is linked with mental illness... it has nothing at all to do with laziness
having said all that - if drugs are to be taken at all, they should be used to open up your mind not shut it down... clearly winehouse just wanted to shut down... she wasn't using the drugs in any imaginable creative way... she was merely trying to oblitterate herself
