There are some people who use chemical substances in moderation, relatively safely, to have a little bit of fun. There also some people who use them in excess, as a crutch, out of psychological or chemical dependency.
Trouble is, virtually everyone who uses them thinks they're in the first category. The boundary of the second category is always a few inches away from their present state.
E is bad for this because it suppresses the very same emotions that cause most people to take a good hard look at their lives and make necessary changes. For the people who are clubbing every week, it also doesn't help that they can almost always point to someone worse. There's some truth to the idea that clubbing/partying actually becomes a form of self-validation for many frequent rollers (though certainly not all).
Of course, meth and coke are much worse for that, but I won't go there. I like to think that weed's alright, although on the other hand I've seen so many stoners who are also hardcore slackers... kind of turns me off. The worst is hearing one dispense what he thinks is some kind of profound wisdom when in actual fact it's just horse . Not all are like this and I personally know several who aren't, but it's a frequent occurrence nevertheless.
Jen, congratulations on... kicking the habit? But I think you know that a year ago you would have casually dismissed the same statements you're making today, so really there's no point in making them. Nobody will be convinced by words alone; the crazy ones will only start making lifestyle changes once they hit rock bottom. |

Frankly I really have no idea what you're talking about, I'm just picking up on other people talking about you "going clean" or something. I'm sorry if I misinterpreted that part.
Regardless, the only people who you're going to convince with the comments I've read from you are the ones who don't need convincing. |

This is not always true. In my case things were actually getting BETTER and even more fun. I realized what I was getting myself into though and decided to choose a different path than nonstop party. As fun as it is/was there are more important things in life. Plus I can always come back to it later on when it seems more suitable. I was crazy for a long time, and operated just fine. It's all on a person to person basis, some can handle the lifestyle and some can't. Some are smart and know what is going on and some don't. |

Whatever you say; I'm not going to play games (especially ones that aren't fun!).
You say/do what you like. I put in my two cents, and now, I'm spent. ;) |
