∙ 12y agoMarijuana is usually considered to be the main gateway drug, because when people want to experiment with recreational drugs, that is the one that they will try first. However, I believe that it is really tobacco which is the gateway drug. Almost everybody who tries smoking marijuana has smoked tobacco first. Once you get used to inhaling smoke, you can move on to other types of smoke. Alcohol also deserves to be considered a gateway drug.

Gateway drugs

The theory that marijuana is a gateway drug is a myth. Propagated by the anti-drug community, which has little or no evidence to support it. There is actually some theories that suggest that alcohol and tobacco are the true gateway drugs. So in no way is marijuana a gateway drug. It ultimately comes down to the will of the person who decides to do drugs, not the drug itself.
drugs are not gateway drugs..drugs are the key life.
