Many substance abusers slip into their addiction when they turn to drugs, or drink, in an effort to 'self-medicate' and blot out some horrible experience from their past. They soon find that they haven't dealt with the old problem, just added another.
When I hear of an addict dying at a young age I do think it a pity.
My views on drugs are well known on here, and I am not about to change anytime soon. I see a dead drug addict as one less addict that will encourage others to take up the habit. I make no apology for that stance.
I understand that fully Ummm, as the curse of drug addiction has touched my family. But we need to condemn more and sympathise less. A whole generation has grown up thinking that regular drug taking is OK, because
"everybody does it " and its not.
// I feel the same way about this news as I do when its reported that a drug addict has died because of an overdose...I just can't be asked to show any sympathy at all //
and other suicides - like the girl who has just committed suicide before her trial for perjury - do you feel - oh well one less perjuror to maintain in prison ?
I did not know that he is a JW at least no fear of him knocking on your door anytime soon .
