Do you realise that you create the addict
    #23989666 - 01/07/17 02:17 PM (7 years, 23 days ago)

As you condem and mock people addicted to drugs, you thus create them?

Most drug users are seeking unconditional love.

As soceity judges them, labels and condems them this only forces the person deeper into the drug itself.

They are seeking not to be shunned by society and then they become labeled "druggy" and the very problem they seek to escape envelopes them as they are outcasted by society.

You make them into a subhuman.  This only forces more drug use as they try to escape judgement.

You dumb fucks or worse you seek to prey on these people to release your emotion.  Its a truely sick society.

I went to a 9 month rehab where all they basically did was humiliate and dehumanize you and all it did was make me want to use.

Then you get a felony drug conviction which prevents you from getting a decent job which makes you want to use moar.

It's an uphill battle.

you make a statement and pose it as a question

if someone is mocked for being and addict, how do I create that addict?
were they not addicts before my mockery?

did I make them subhuman or was it their choice to act as subhuman and I simply view them as they act?

so true, I think the problem stems from people seeing self medication as something which is "weak" and also the stigma surrounding mental health problems.
Rather than locking up and shaming addicts, help them feel normal in society, accept them.

Also drug laws are fucked. Its a sad system based on monetizing human beings, the government as a whole dosen't give a fuck about people's well being.

addiction generally comes in two forms mental and physical, all of the things you have mentioned in this post do not pertain to the physical aspects of certain addictions but they surely ring true for some of the mental aspects.

in 12 step philosophy it is said that once someone is an addict/alcoholic they always are and not only that but that the idea of that is the front running concept that ultimately controls the individuals existence.

ive heard some very depraved people claim they "talk, walk, eat and sleep like an addict/alcoholic" even years after they have been fully sober. without saying it directly 12 step philosophy encourages people to beat themselves up and give up their own will in blind faith that the program and the steps will return them to a state where they can in essence pretend to society that they arent an addict/alcoholic while they constantly remind themselves that they are and forever will be.

its really sad, i have more to say on this but im kinda high to type more right now.

yep. I think it sadly takes being an addict breifly to really see this side of the coin. the way the common man describes an addict is some subhuman maniac who is on the level of a murderer etc.
