Think about this, you want to drink a beer, but why?.
Are you drinking it to "get drunk" or just because it tastes good and gives you a good buzz. What about with coffee, are you "getting high"? Or the same question with a cigarette.
In some cases you are indeed trying to "get drunk" and you either internally or externally declare so, and proceed to drink until intoxicated.
What purpose does this serve?. Why do you have to declare you are going to get high, drunk or go on a trip?. What purpose does this actually serve?.
Hard drugs for example seem to be abused easily with this mindset, you are "getting messed up" or high, etc. Or maybe you are just getting a "little high".
I believe when you consume a substance you should not seek to achieve a state of mind, but to practice mindfulness in substance use.
For example, smoking a cigarette or enjoying a warm coffee on a cold day would be mindful practice because you are just enjoying being there in the moment, appreciating the flavors and smells.
With smoking cannabis most people are "getting high" or stoned but you should really just enjoy the smells, tastes and act of smoking the sacred plant, appreciating a fine roll or nice smoking apparatus or the quality of the substance.
I believe this is the key to harm reduction, instead of abusing cocaine and getting "high" or "messed up" you can instead enjoy the appearance of the drug, the quality, taste, sensation. Same with heroin, drug users appreciate their substances in various ways but this gets lost in the chase of highs and partying. People need to focus more on enjoying the experience and being mindful of the world around them and enjoying themselves.
Now if you'll excuse me im going to admire some MDMA I recently picked up and examine the pretty crystals and enjoy crushing them up and loading a capsule with it.

I haven't drank since last summer. Though when one deliberately weighs out 50+ mg of crystal meth to snort there's really no "Yeah I'm just gonna do some lines and chill" mode.
