Some people, like poets, drugs help inspiration. Gnostics think inspiration in some ways is from God and using drugs brings you closer to God by being inspirational and creative you are one with the Lord.

I use drugs for enlightenment. But, are you using drugs in a spiritual way? Ever question why we feel pain in this life?

I Am;
We Are;
Not much difference
In reality;
I Can;
We Will;
Huge difference
Really

i take drugs to remind me that reality is only what the chemicals in my brain make it
and that thhis 'sober', default reality we live in sometimes, is just different kind of hallucination. and that blue is probably purple,
people that are against using drugs.. well its no different when i don't want someone around me when i'm tripping on a completely different buzz. it makes them uncomfortable.

I take them to relax my mind, but I don't when I write poetry since it completely ruins my writing.

you know john hopkins did a study on drugs they gave some people hallucinogens on some occasions and other occasions gave them a placebo- ritalin and had them sit in a room and write down about the experience and most ranked it as either the greatest religious experience they ever felt or near it however some people also said they had hallucinogenic trips on the ritalin so either mind over matter or for all i know maybe ritalin can really cause a beyond experience in certain individuals.
