Humans seek out drugs, as we know, but so too do many other animals. Birds gorge themselves on inebriating berries, then fly with reckless abandon. Cows browse special range weed then twitch, shake, shudder, and stumble back for more. Elephants purposely get drunk on fermented fruits. Drug guilt Understanding and accepting that drug taking is a basic motivational drive will free one from the guilt about taking drugs.
Euphoric drug taking gives one a sense of personal control.
Such controlled drug taking is a form of empowerment and can lead to experiences of self-actualization. The Drug Workshop is dedicated toward making the drug experience meaningful, euphoric, personally relevant, and socially beneficial. It provides support to those persons who want to integrate drug taking into their lives and not have drugs become the center of their lives. It is important to understand drug taking as more than the drug itself. It is a holistic experience that involves the sensations that drugs produce but also is inclusive of who takes it, where it is taken, and with whom.
