I've taken some misc things in my life, none of which was illegal. Mostly for my "Autism" which happened to be Aspergers instead.

I have drunk a little bit of alcohol once I turned 21 years old but not really that much. I like drinks for flavor and most of the time it just doesn't taste that well. Some I am growing to like a bit better but I prefer to keep my senses in tact most of the time so yeah.

I hate smoking with a passion so that's all I have to say about that? What of you? Which of the above describes you?

I don't drink.

I tried various alcoholic stuff and thought it tasted terrible, and I have no desire to lose control over myself.

Smoking is gross. I try not to breathe when I pass by a smoker on the street. And the way so many of them toss their butts on the ground as if the city was a giant ashtray. Eww.

I've been cannabis-free since July 1 and never been happier :) It was hard to give up, but I managed to... (OTOH, trying to help a friend of mine quit smoking hasn't been going very well :/)

I was never really a big drinker, although I do enjoy an occasional glass of wine or a beer... I don't smoke but wouldn't have an issue with one as long as they didn't smoke in my face ;)

I'm also on the "can't stand smoking" wagon. Just the smell of it turns my stomach, even when in the car and the person in the car in front of me is smoking with the window down and the wind is blowing in my direction. Nasty. I was even accused of being rude during a wedding reception that allowed people to smoke. Seemed like eveyone in the whole damned room was lighting up, and the doors were all closed. I got up and left the room because I couldn't even breathe. I would rather spend a day in a room filled with CS gas while wearing my gas mask.

My family has a bad history with alcohol, so I don't drink. It's also a part of my martial art not to consume alcohol. And I am completely fine with that. I don't mind others drinking, so long as they don't get obnoxious. Then the tendancy to punch them in the throat for their own good and the good of society starts to rise.

Not on any type of medication permenantly. I do have some pretty good pain killers on the side in case a 5th kidney stone decides to show up (and I hope it never does).

I don't smoke, and I hate cigarette smoke, which is kinda bad since a lot of my friends and family smoke. On the other hand, I like the fragrance of cigars, I don't know what it is, but I like the smell of a good cigar.

As for drinking, I do occasionally. I usually prefer things like vodka coolers and the like, though I do drink beer and whiskey from time to time.

When I'm drunk, I usually don't do anything I wouldn't normally do, except maybe open up and talk to people. The closest to "obnoxious drunk" I've been was back in March, when @Aesur, @Marzen64, and I played Brawl and put it on our group channel. Although, I didn't particularly act any different than I normally do when talking to those two. It was that day that I discovered I'm still a competent gamer when drunk.

As for medication, I've only ever used prescription drugs I had a script for... Most of the time, I would even not take my meds, mainly because I would forget about them. Being that I'm a fairly husky guy, I'm pretty resilient against getting sick in the first place, but when I do get sick, it's usually pretty bad.

Other than that, I take over-the-counter pain relievers for stuff like headaches or when my back, knee, or ankle start hurting unbearably.

I drink sometimes, mostly just flavored shots and stuff when I do.

As for smoking? I only have weed sometimes, but that's it really.

I drink occasionally, I used to drink daily when I had access to my parent's alcohol, less so now. >_> (This was all totally fine with them, it's not like I was stealing it or anything, and never so much that I got drunk or anything) I generally prefer wine...

I can't stand tobacco smoke to the point where I won't smoke a traditional marijuana cigarette either because it reminds me too much of it.

I smoked 9 joints and got a few hits from a bong today, so that tell you my thoughts on smoking? =P

As far as drinking goes, yes. Totally underage that shit when I can, but it's not often.

Smoke: Nope. I tried a puff of weed before with my friend, but I barely took any in. I just don't like smoking of any kind. I hate the smell of it and, well, just not my thing.

Drink: Yep. But I hate beer. I stick with mixed drinks, whiskey, rum, tequila, stuff like that.

Medicine: I take a nasal spray for my allergies and Advair for my asthma, along with a rescue inhaler that I haven't used in months...maybe a year, its been that long. Got an appointment next month and I might be asthma free when I go.

I'm glad there are people here who share my views on this kinda stuff *highfives Ryudo and Scrydan*

I am probably the most straightedge person you will EVER meet. I HATE drugs. With most things I hate or love, I have a logical reason. I can tell you exactly why and back up my feelings. With drugs? I can't. I feel kinda bad about that most of the time but it's just an innate feeling of dislike and hate towards drugs and those who abuse them.

Parents tried to shove the idea of "cigs are bad" into my head when I was young, maybe that's it. They did it cause both my Grandma and my Granddad smoked for a long time aaaaaaand that didn't go well for them. I grew up seeing exactly what happens when you smoke, so that helped.

I'm underaged for one thing (which doesn't seem to bother SOME people here >_>. That brings down my opinions I'm not gonna lie), so I'm not gonna drink alcohol anyway. Second thing, EVERYONE in my family gets drunk a lot and there's a history of alcoholism, so that's pushing me away. Third thing, it tastes like ass. Fourth thing I'd probably look like a dumbass drunk. Last night, there was a super drunk guy at the con stumbling around with his friend. He went up hugged me, rubbed my face, rubbed my friend's face, and made her take a picture of me with his face rubbed up against mine. Yeeeeeeep no.

I don't really take medicine, and I don't mind prescription drug use, of course. But I'm not really gonna use any. I COULD probably use anti-depressants, but the only drugs I take are Vitamin D pills cause I have a deficit :P

AND last but not least, marijuana. I kinda... have a very irrational hatred of weed and weed smokers. You might have noticed if you've ever seen me talk to them on IRC, cause some pop up occasionally and I act like an idiot calling THEM idiots. I just think it's really stupid to take it or any other pleasure drug, I don't know. Also I've had some baaaaad history with it and people who take it, but I'd really rather not talk about it here.

I at first used a few anti-depressants at a time while I was a bit depressed but as time went on it felt like it was making me worse after it felt it was working for a time. So I used my own strength and happy/positive thoughts to get out of it on my own. I know myself better than anyone so I'd rather rely on my own strength than on some medicine that may or may not make me worse off.

I take medicine when I really need to. Not when I might want it. So yeah, the chances of illegal drug usage from me is less than 0%.

I'm on Prozac for anxiety, and I've been on it for about 2 years now.

Thing is, I really needed it. I was so anxious before then that I could barely eat or sleep for days at a time.
