What is pushing the limit? I mean...for example, my ex gf almost flipped when I told her casually that I had "experimented" a bit into drugs but from my perspective, I've hardly been exceeding saftey levels. But I also have a friend (not close but we're buddies) who purchases an 8 ball every week or two. To me, that seems a bit much and not just the money factor. My point is that every time you see some people who might be going overboard, there's always people who are way worse off. |
I think you bring up some good points and questions.
Are some drugs more 'acceptable' while others are not? Certainly. Do I personally think some drugs are 'less risky' than others? For sure. Of course every drug has potential for abuse, even the more 'acceptable' drugs. But I see people who turn every weekend into one reeeallly lonnng dayyyy week after week after week, going sleep deprived for days on end, watching people prioritize spending money & time on weekend benders over more important necessities or fun outings, doing heavy drugs at home just for the sake of doing drugs cuz they're there or out of boredom, or going out of their way to take days off work just so you can use that night as an excuse to stay home and get wasted and invading everyday life, and seeing people you care about do drugs you thought they'd never touch a few months ago.....its scary.
Obviously, we can't make anyone stop. Each person has to stop or take control at their own pace. But sometimes all it takes is a little word with them to turn that lightbulb on...
