I was already high.
They're called 'gateway' drugs - simply because they're often a cheap way to get 'high'. However - they're still addictive and can often lead to the user trying harder (and more expensive) drugs.
The theory that marijuana is a gateway drug is a myth. Propagated by the anti-drug community, which has little or no evidence to support it. There is actually some theories that suggest that alcohol and tobacco are the true gateway drugs. So in no way is marijuana a gateway drug. It ultimately comes down to the will of the person who decides to do drugs, not the drug itself.
maybe they have problems that they feel can be solved by finding a gateway, or just bored
In middle school I saw some people vandalizing school property and some of them brought drugs
There are some legal and some illegal for example a few months back I heard of a legal drug which was it is called recently made illegal "spice" apparently there are many different "flavors" and apparently it is the substitute for marijuana because it has the same effects I don't think marijuana is a gateway drug personally, but i believe that this spice may be a gateway drug to marijuana but that is just my opinion
A gateway drug is a drug that may lead to using other drugs. Some consider marijuana to be a gateway drug. The reason for that is that marijuana might be illegal for the wrong reasons. Then youth may try marijuana, realize it is not harming them, and become curious about the others, figuring adults lied about them too.
you shouldn't take drugs ^weed isn't a drug. tis a gateway drug, but NOT a drug. drugs are man-made. weed is a plant. that some god blessed us with
Marijuana is considered a gateway drug because some people who use it may be more likely to try other, more harmful substances. This can lead to a progression towards using harder drugs.
Smoking Cigarettes, (not weed) drinking, and some other stuff.. But drugs dont stunt your growth... ;)
Research on the topic of marijuana as a gateway drug is mixed. Some studies suggest that using marijuana may increase the likelihood of trying harder drugs, while others argue that this relationship is not causal. It is important to consider individual factors and circumstances when discussing drug use patterns.
Yes, there is some statistical evidence that suggests a correlation between marijuana use and the likelihood of trying other drugs, but the concept of marijuana being a "gateway drug" is a complex and debated issue among researchers.
no
