Drugs aren’t always a big deal, and sometimes they’re even a positive choice. But if they change who you are in someone else’s eyes, then you’ve chosen the company of drugs over the company of that person. Which is sometimes just a “whatever fuck em” situation because maybe they weren’t worth it after all if they were going to judge you for it, and other times it was a crappy choice in all aspects.
I’ve lost too many friends who chose the company of drugs over the company of me, both literally and figuratively. So I wish my friends and peers would make the right choice for themselves and who they love. I wish they would educate themselves and learn of alternative treatments if they’re self-medicating with drugs.
And I especially wish, if they choose so, do drugs responsibly, safely, and in good company.
