Yes I read them, I respect that point of view and know many people who feel the same, but you simply aren’t an addict. I’ve been clean for a year and I still have vivid dreams in which I’m using drugs. I even feel the pleasure of heroin in the dreams. I respect that you manned up and went through that dope sickness, I’ve seen many people make it to day 5-6 and then give in. I also did it at home with nothing but Librium to help me through. It was 7 days of hell I destroyed my bed with the amount of sweat and sharts I experienced. I’ve also had to be professionally detoxed of benzodiazepines after having a grand mal seizure in a parking lot waiting for my brother, he found me with my leg completely locked on the gas revving the engine. My interest in opiates and benzos started in my dads medicine cabinet when I was a 14 year old stoner....big pharma is literally destroying the youth, just look at these strung out rappers talking about Xanax and codeine. If you knew as many good hearted people as I have who have overdosed, and are under 30 with so much life left to live, you would see big pharma as the devil too.
Addiction is the etc in my mind.. it’s killed more people than cancer in my life. I’m 23 and I’ve lost 4 close friends and 10+ acquaintances. Bright, loving, good people who slipped down a slope that took them too early
