Hypothetical Qs - Drugs

[Drolefille]

1) If you could try any and every drug out there, just once, with a guarantee that you would not become addicted or have negative side effects besides the equivalent of a hangover the next day, would you do it? Why or why not? Would you try everything or is there something that you wouldn't try even with that guarantee?

2) If synthetic versions of any/all drugs existed that were non-addictive, with similarly minimal side effects and do not have the corresponding geo-political complications, would you use them recreationally? Why or why not?


Context: I end up having these discussions with classmates and co-workers since we all work with people with substance abuse issues and also many of us have our own, albeit legal, addictions (caffeine and nicotine primarily).
