including coke and heroin. Acid was impressive. Coke and heroin were both big yawns to me.
Yet I saw people who did either drug fall in love with it the first time they tried it and not want to do anything else for the rest of their lives but stay high.
I've always thought it was brain chemistry since there was absolutely no way to predict beforehand who it would happen to.
Every bit of research they do on nicotine tachyphylaxis and addiction is a step closer to understanding the whole addiction puzzle for all other substances and perhaps for some behaviors.
It's certainly not morality and it's not personality. It has to be something else.
