It did not take a while to understand all drug experiences are deeply fake comparing to living full life. And if they enrich you, you life is probably fake. Like in Russian group Splin lyrics: "Я наяву вижу то, что многим даже не снилось, Hе являлось под кайфом". Rough translation: "I see the things in reality, others don't even when dreaming, when getting high"

I used to smoke weed every day. At the end of the day after work, I would vape until I was fairly intoxicated. Almost everything was better on weed--sex, food, television, etc. I would be out with friends and look forward to getting home and smoking weed. In essence, it made being bored fun. But I started to question who I really was when I smoked weed. I was in a different state mentally, a state that in many ways was disconnected to my sober state. Almost as if I were a different person. I eventually completely quit because it seemed like a black hole in my day and in my life, where the sober me just lost valuable time and focus. It also dampened my motivation. Part of it may have been physiological, I would be less focused the next day. But part of it was also that compared to being on weed, life was just not as enjoyable when I was sober. I did not like that contrast.

The same could be said about any experience from reading fiction, watching movies or enjoying art.

  I must say I've stopped watching movies too, and reading most fiction (except at least 100 years old), after diving deeper into life. Certainly not only drugs are fake or toxic.

Isn't it ironic that you provide a quote from Vasilyev, who's not exactly known for being straight edge? Moreover, this is a line from a song about love from first sight, which itself is a specific kind of an altered state of mind.

  I am not making any idols here. The quote just comes to my mind now and then, when reality, so to say, happens.
