Brighton and drugs

Reading the earlier very honest posts about problems with coke, I wanted to test the water on peoples view of the town and its drug problem. of course the drugs league table is well documented, but how do people view it who have experiences of other british towns and cities.

What are your views on the old rang dang diggedy dangadang stuff that goes on in Brighton. Hastings is more smacked up per capita I always think but aside from real inner city drug problems Brighton must be one of the worst for 'recreational' use. seaside town, students, transient population but how far is the culture ingrained?

thoughts?

Brighton is a party town and will always have a drugs culture but I don't see it as being more prevalent than anywhere else in the country.

If anything the clubs and bars have cracked down on it in recent years, I remember when you could always get pills at the big nights on the seafront but it seems to have all stopped these days. I personally think that's why clubbing in brighton has gone downhill. In the past year I've bought pills in birmingham, bournemouth and london clubs.

I have known people who take all sorts (recreational) and handle it to a point but after a certain age it seems a bit pathetic. Always seems to cause arguments etc, have seen very reasonable sober people turn into bloody monsters, making shit/dangerous decisions, mixing with people they wouldn't talk to when sober, being suggestable and making some very regretful decision that always makes them feel shite the next day. I used to have a fairly open mind but after seeing friends who are not arseholes act like arseholes I cannot be bothered with any of it anymore. In fact saw 2 of my very close friends turn into wankers this very Friday gone because they were stoned out of their gourds, was all very depressing.

Only 2 weeks ago a female friend called me at 2 in the morning because she had done coke with 2 guys in the pub she had never met before, invited them back to hers and got into a position she wasn't comfortable with, had to go all the way across town to sort it out. All very silly.

Don't have a problem with people who do it / sell it ? Their choice.
