"It's My ONLY Friend."
(On some days, the venom is just a little more potent than others....)
It IS a Weakness. It IS a Fault.
I can't stand how it feels like I can't go to nightclubs in this area without some asshole asking me if I have any weed/ecstasy/blow. Seriously, what the hell? I mean, I'll have the occasional drink while I'm out, but do I give off the stigma of someone who deals or something? I know, it's difficult to accept the fact that I kick this much ass on a DAILY basis without being on anything, but.....
That being said, I'm just gonna toss this out there....
I absolutely LOATHE people that rely on "substances" to deal with their issues. There's nothing worse than seeing (or moreso KNOWING) someone that "drowns their sorrows" away with alcohol. Personally, I feel the only thing more pathetic than seeing someone do it is listening to them attempt to justify and rationalize the reasons they do it. (For the record, there is NO plausible justification and rationalization for this behavior. If I just described YOU, you are controlled by a substance, and you suck. Period.)
The way I see it, the only difference between cocaine and alcohol is the fact that alcohol isn't illegal. Both substances aren't good for you, and both substances relieve you of both your sound mind and body for a temporary period of time. Permanance can come into play with both substances as well if used enough.
Both substances can ADDICT you. To me, hearing "I need a drink" sounds almost exactly like, "I need some blow." Bottom line. It's the fact that you NEED it. "NEED."
"So what's YOUR drug?"
Don't get me wrong though, if you do it because you find joy out of it and you actually LIKE to do it, then fine, as long as you aren't hurting anyone, then that's on you. But if you're that asshole who does it routinely as a means of "escape"....that's just cowardice, it's pathetic, and quite frankly, disgusting.
