Recreational drug use is the use of mind-altering substances for the purpose of altering one's mental state, without the supervision of a physician. Recreational drug use can be addictive, harmful to health or even fatal, and in many cases violates the law.

On the other hand, the majority of human societies throughout history have had a tradition of using mind-altering drugs.

The most popular recreational drugs are alcohol, nicotine, and cannabis.
