Do you think Lana still does drugs?

[vanillaiceys 221]

she do weed for sure, nothing more, maybe sometimes do acid I think, but thats all.

Acid? I don't think so, if she is a melancholic person, acid isn't a good choice, but she definitely do weed

[mauve 44]

Hi guys,

 

I'm sure there's some variant of this thread out there, but do you guys think Lana still uses hard drugs? I'm 100% sure she smokes top quality weed, but what about harder stuff?

 

I know she had a meth/coke/heroin trailer park (damn) faze a few years ago, especially around the time of "May Jailer", following her teenage alcoholism. 

 

I assumed she'd stopped hard stuff completely, but I can TOTALLY imagine her still doing the "opulent and glamorous" drugs i.e. coke and heroin. "Yayo" means "coke", even if it may be a metaphor, and someone cooks heroin in the West Coast video.

 

It seems obvious that she does hard drugs, because I know from experience (friends) that ONLY people involved with hard drugs talk about them, feature them in art etc. As in, someone who only smokes weed wouldn't make a song involving any imagery to do with heroin or coke. People who don't take hard drugs tend to find them distasteful and not at all luxurious or fashionable, right?

 

Do you think Lana manages to use class As carefully? She seems to be doing well at the moment and looks great. I just wonder because it's impossible to use something like heroin in a sparing, "glamorous" way without becoming addicted.

 

What do you guys think? If she doesn't let it ruin her life it's fine (i guess), but is it really possible to go on that way, lightly using cocaine?

I think this subject is so tired.

 

I find Lana's drug use kind of thrilling but I don't really fixate on it, I never really did. I don't think she still uses hard drugs, but like any ex drug addict, I think she still has coping issues. Like Ride for example I think sometimes she may get into hard patches in her life that make her want to use again. It's hard to stay completely sober but I have confidence she has. That being said, I think that's really her business at this point. And unless she's vomiting out of night clubs and what not, I don't really care - am not really concerned about Lana doing drugs right now.

[jazzsingrcultleadr 1,708]

Lana sings about a lot of different substances, but do we know what drugs she may regularly use? Obviously weed...but I was listening to Florida Kilos (which is obvi about cocaine) and the thought of Lana doing coke seems really unnatural to me lmao. She seems like such a docile person, so her on coke would probably be a really interesting sight. 

[GLOW 69]

She used to do meth, I think she only smokes weed rn

[ZeroZero 2,225]

don't forget drinking

[morrison 355]

She used to do meth, I think she only smokes weed rn

i doubt she actually did meth. at what time in her life could she have been a methhead?

[Greenwich 1,052]

I laugh when she says amphetamines.. okay Lans 

She used to do meth, I think she only smokes weed rn

reevaluate urself pls

[slayLANAslay 239]

I think lana references drugs and getting high as a metaphor for escape from reality, a free ticket to paradise

 

some of her references are pretty hardcore - like I doubt she's shot up or cooked crack; maybe she hung out with people who knew people or whatever. that's the fun of being her fan, we won't know where fantasy and reality melt into one another. Bravo to her, she's got drug cred to a certain extent while seeming to avoid the depths of addiction so far - it's a line lots of people try to walk/snort but not everyone can still look at themselves in the mirror.

[plush 656]

When she was a party girl, she probably did coke to keep herself up. Coke gives you energy and alertness from nowhere.

doubt she ever did anything hardcore like meth tho lol

 

She obvs smokes weed now, which is better than alcohol or cigs

[DominicMars 1,763]

Hmm. There are songs that she uses drugs as metaphors, definitely. However there are songs in which Lana explicitly says that she has used/uses various drugs.

Amphetamines, as in Adderal. probably. She has mentioned pills in songs. Ecstacy and weed, yes. probably. I wouldn't be surprised if she did a bit of speed here and there. There are definitely times during the Born To Die era that she is on something.....that didn't seem like  weed, coke, or being drunk. 


She seems to have been with men that enjoy their hard-drugs, it wouldn't be surprising if she tried speed or something with one of them.

In conclusion.....I want to take hella pills w/ Lana

[ZeroZero 2,225]

Lana has definitely taken pills before and smokes weed. But I can't see her doing hard drugs. Knowing how hard is was for her to get sober from liquor, if she even touched them, she'd still be living in a trailer park while hallucinating that Elvis, Marilyn and Jesus are all with her while playing some messed up guitar (imagine taking LSD with Lana back then yoooo)

[HeartshapedChevrolet 294]

i dunno how anyone can say she's definitely done drugs before if you weren't there ?

isn't there already a thread on this?

I feel like she's tried everything. Or her obsession with drugs like cocaine and meth just stem from her ex-boyfriends addictions. But it's more than likely she's tried these drugs herself.

[slayLANAslay 239]

Edited messy post : I'd be really surprised if she has shot up

[Intriguing Penguin 867]

^What?

[DominicMars 1,763]

Just saying -- it would be weird to take on the social stigma (especially being that her career is based on public-image to an extent) of being a recreational drug user if you've never been one. It is labeled as a deviant behavior and I doubt many sober people would find getting high as appealing or glamorize it as Lana has. She has publicly talked about struggling with alcoholism and it seems likely that she has struggled with depression, so it is not a stretch to think that she has ever used recreational drugs. Disregarding the fact, of course, that she references herself using drugs throughout her entire catalog, released and unreleased.
