I know a LOT of people with schizo and bipolar have done drugs. Are there many who have not?? And don’t smoke either??
I"m one of them. I don’t smoke and never have and i’ve never done drugs at all. But it seems like there isn’t many that haven’t.
I haven’t done drugs, either.
I don’t know the figures on how many people with schizophrenia have not done drugs.
Never done drugs or smoked. Maybe if i had a circle of friends and peer group pressure it might have been different . Never knew the people who knew where to get the drugs from.
Only thing i tried very briefly was cough medicine as an older patient said it gave you a buzz but it did nothing for me.
Congratulations on never doing drugs. I would like not to smoke cigarettes anymore and I no longer drink alcohol. I just stopped enjoying it.
Do you or have you ever smoked on a normal basis?? Hope you don’t mind my asking. 
That’s kind of the same for me. I didn’t have the social groups that were involved in it. I was offered to smoke pot once and i declined.
I never smoked. I drank a little in my early twenties, but never developed a taste for alcohol.
I never smoked, drank alcohol, or smoked a cigarette…but I accidentally got drunk twice when I was a baby lol.

I got called a snob on an hourly basis at the activity center for not going outside for a smoke. Why don’t people like others for not drinking,smoking, doing drugs?
glad you didn’t. because it makes them feel like there doing something wrong if you don’t want to participate.
