Even that hasn't seemed to be very common in my experience. I'm sure there's studies that say the opposite of what I think, but I honestly think drugs have more to do with who you hang out with and what's available, then a natural progression of one drug being a gateway to the next.
People who do cocaine usually do it because people they hang out with other people who do it, and I haven't really seen anyone go "man, I need to get to the next level!".
It seems like there's different groups, lets say....
Group 1
Weed
Group 2
Powdered cocaine
exctasy
Group 3
Crack
Meth
Heroine
Personally, I think people tend to stick those groups. I'd barely call group 1 a drug group, group 2 is a "party drug" group and the third is hard drugs.
You don't really see the blow and exctacy crowd taking that step into the instant life destroying hard drugs, and likewise you don't typically see people going from weed to the party drugs, and if they do it usually has nothing to do with the fact they smoke weed.
Anyways, just an fyi that's completely based on personal experience and not at all on facts.
