Psilocybe Mushrooms
Salvia (not illegal but its a psychedelic)
Various Pharmaceuticals (sp)
Nitrous
Nicotine (only a couple times)
DXM (not illegal but its a psychedelic)

Not a whole lots really…
It figures that my post about illegal drugs would have a glaring grammar mistake in it. We call IT cheeba.
I heard on the news that smoking cheeba regularly for 8 years causes your IQ to drop 4 points. I figure I can spare 8 points total, so I’m looking at another eleven years of frequent cheeba use.
Yes I have used recreationally:
Marijuana
Hashish
Alcohol
Yes I have used medicinally:
Morphine (natural and synthesized versions)
Codeine
Sodium pentathol
I have not used but would like to try:
Psilocybin (mushrooms)
LSD (in extremely controlled circumstances)
Peyote (ditto)
I have not used but am somewhat curious about:
Ecstasy
I have not used and have no interest in trying:
Opium
Heroin
Cocaine
Speed (crystal meth and similar)
Nacho4Sara: What is this Salvia Divinorum of which you speak? I’m at work so I’m not sure this would be a good web search for me right now.
I’m shocked! Shocked, I tell you!!! I could never imagine using illicit substances. But if I could, they would be pot (34 yrs.),
alcohol, cocaine, LSD, STP, PCP, hashish, mescaline, psilocybin, peyote, herion (a couple times), opium, various uppers & downers (reds & black beauties, in my more youthful, indiscreet days). Of course, that’s only if I could imagine it.
I have tried:
Alcohol
Cannabis
Nutmeg (we were all laughing, but we’re not sure if it was the nutmeg or because we were feeling so damn silly trying to smoke nutmeg)
And quite possibly chronic
If I had the opportunity i would try:
Peyote
MDMA (ecstasy)
Shrooms (maybe…)
nicotine (and this is the one drug I wish I’d never touched!)
alcohol (occasionally)
pot (I would smoke it now if it was legal)
coke (only once and it hurt my chest so bad, never ever again!)
acid (I had my acid summer 
)
Last three done before the age of eighteen. Once I had a child, I learned a bit of self-control. Just a bit, mind you.
Alcohol
Pot (which never did a thing for me. I also have minimal reaction to most painkillers, including things like Vicodin)
Used:
alcohol (rarely)
pot twice (didn’t do anything)
hash once (made me dizzy - I’ll just spin in place for awhile and get the same effect)
Turned down:
cocaine
'shrooms
…but I’m a chain smoker and a coffee addict - a pack and two pots a day
Serious addiction: SDMB
I may have spelled it wrong, BTW. I worked in a head shop for a few months and we sold this stuff, but we stopped when we heard they might make it illegal. We got a big stash free with the store’s order, though, so we split it up and tried it.
First of all, it’s some sort of leaf that is shredded and soaked in the chemical that makes is psychodelic; not sure what that chemical is, but it’s supposed to be completely natural. You buy it in degrees of strength and pay based on that; we sold 5x, 10x, and super 10x. The strength is based on how many times the leaf is soaked in the chemical.
You smoke it out of a glass water pipe. You take one really big hit, hold it in for as long as you can without passing out, and then for the next 5-7 minutes you have a seriously intense psychodelic experiance. My friend Jon, who I shared my stash with, had a conversation with a friend he hallucinated while I went to the bathroom; I just saw numbers and colors. You feel it set in while you’re still holding your breath; you giggle a lot and your jaw hurts from grinning. After the really intense part, you just feel sort of blazed for about 15 or 20 minutes. My brother swore he’d never try it again; it’s definitely weird, but in a cool way. It’s also nice to mix it with pot (it looks just like shake) and smoke the two combined.
Personally, I chalked it up to one of those drugs you don’t want to use on a regular basis, but you had to try. I’m not mad about shrooms, peyote, or speed; all three I only used once or twice and I’m not too concerned with trying them again. I think Salvia is fun to try a few times - it’s a different vibe that you’re used to - but it’s not like cheeba.
As for extacy, which you said you were curious about, I’ve done that a few times and I liked it a lot (however, because it drains your seratonin, you get awfully depressed the next day, which I don’t like). I tried it the first time at a club in DC where it’s really popular; it was possibly the best night of my life. I was just ecstatic (hence the name). I felt like I was doing to die of excess happiness, and I loved everyone around me so much. My friends and I danced on the outside patio dance floor (with awesome old-school house music) for about 7 hours straight, and it was definitely an amazing drug. You just have to concentrate on staying hydrated.
I’ve also done it a few times with friends in a close group setting; it’s pretty crazy and intense. Again, you’re just really, truly happy. It’s nice to feel that once in a while. It’s nice too if you’re with an SO, because sex on ex is three thousand times better than the very best sex you’ve ever had (in my experiance, anyway). You want to hug and kiss everyone around you, and the people you love seem so beautiful and spectacular that you just can’t get enough of them.
I found a few links about Salvia for you:
http://www.sagewisdom.org/ - this one has an ordering page; I believe you want the “standardized salvinorum A” stuff. We sold it at cheaper prices, but you might want to look around.
http://www.salvia-divinorum.com/ - this one might help too.
Alcohol
Marijuana (I used to smoke it on an almost daily basis in college. Didn’t help my grades too much. Not because of being stoned but because I just didn’t <i>care</i> about a damn thing. Some people can smoke the stuff constantly and function well, I can’t. So in the past year I’ve only smoked it twice)
LSD twice (I loved it, it was so much fun, but I don’t know if I’d do it again. Rather, I don’t have 8-12 hours to sit around and stare at the wallpaper)
I used to take these things called yellowjackets (completely legal actually, they sell them at most gas stations). A combination of caffeine and ephedrine.
I always wanted to try ecstacy, but I don’t think I ever will.
I will never touch coke or heroin…scary stuff
Alcohol-I don’t like being hung over so I don’t drink that much. Instead I have…
Pot-Smoke it more than I should, but I have yet to do it on a school night.
Quaalude-Tried that once, never going to do that again. I still get chills thinking about it.
Nicotine-I’m only 17 but I like cigars more than cigarettes. I rarely smoke them though, but my grandfather offers me them and I smoke them, and my parents don’t really care.
I’ve turned down both coke and shrooms. I’ve seen coked out people, not very fun. And after my experience with ludes I’ll never do anything stronger than pot.
This thread has mentioned quite a number of drugs whose existence I was previously unaware of. For me, nothing, unless you count secondhand pot smoke or small amounts of alcohol for religious purposes. BTW, I think that anyone who enters the city of Prague has experienced secondhand marijuana smoke.
Alcohol — nothing special there.
Pot — several times, but to be quite honest, it has never really done that much for me. I only do it now when I’m rather stressed out.
Ecstacy — Only once, but I greatly look forward to the day when I’ll do it again. The one time I did it was one of the best nights of my life.
Nothing else really appeals to me.
Me? I’m just high on life.
And alcohol, skunk, ecstacy, cocaine, acid, shrooms and speed.
Drugs I have used illegally:
alcohol (before I was 21)
ether (illegal to use as an intoxicant in Idaho at the time I used it)
marihuana
hash
hash oil
LSD
mushrooms
PCP
Valium (no scrip)
Quaaludes (no scrip)
pharmaceutical amphetimine (no scrip; injected)
“bathtub” amphetimine (crank, crystal meth)
heroin (snorted and smoked)
codeine (no scrip)
cocaine (snorted and smoked)
maybe mescaline (what I was told it was, but I believe it was LSD)
Exept for the occasional LSD journey (2-3 times a year), I no longer do any of the above (I even turned down a doctor’s offered prescription for Valium when I quit drinking).
buckyogi, mescaline is usually in pill form as far as I have ever seen because you need a much higher dose size than with LSD. LSD is mostly in blotter (paper) form, though I remember a time when little gelatin pyramids were around and sort of the rage (I suspect that this is because there are only a handful of LSD manufacturers around and when a few of them need to lay low we see a different kind that dominates the market… in my experiences different types of acid weren’t available for much more than six months or so, at best, and weren’t seen around again for quite some time). If you took a pill it was decidedly mescaline… unless it was a sugar cube, in which case I would bet my life that it was LSD.
Mescaline is very similar to a psychadelic amphetamine, structure-wise. Just FYI. I have no idea about the relative durations of the mescaline trip.
I’m surprised I’m the only one so far who has expressed a desire to try belladonna. It just sounds so very intense.
In high school,
weed - lunch hour every day
coke - once a month.
quaaludes - every Friday night
Tried once in my life and that is enough
PCP- made me very very angry
acid - did it at a Youth Fair very bizarre.
Would try again but dont know any pushers here, and that is all right really, but…
shrooms
homegrown green
I have never done drugs, and have no intent to try any. But I am fascinated with the word Quaaludes.
Just the word.
Really.
Alcohol (underage)
Marijuana
Cigarettes (underage)
I forgot a few on my original list that a few other people reminded me of.
Mushrooms
Nitrous
Opium
