it shouldnt be a big deal. it shouldnt be illegal. it could be just like the beer or two a person has after a hard day. a glass of wine. the nip of sherry great aunt bessie took every night, for medicinal purposes only, mind you!

yes, people definitely self medicate. i think most drug use and subsequent abuse is a symptom, not the problem. it is a sign of selfmedicating, sometimes gone out of control. we understand why that first hit of crack is so addicting - it feels so good and you never get that feeling again, though many try till they die. but for most other things, it gives relief and makes more normal or tolerable, then the adaptation takes place and it takes more and more to do the same thing. two different dynamics.

this is why i have never smoked crack. i have seen what it does and how helpless those people truly become. even worse is meth smokers. at least the crack addicts still recognize other human beings as people. meth smokers dont even recognize themselves as people.
