    Drugs and alcohol are a loan. You have to eventually pay back what you’re getting - and with interest.

    Please take it from someone who’s been there - stay away. Using substances to cope with mental health issues is a dangerous road that inevitably leads to one of three options - institutions, sobriety, or death. Only takes one hot shot to send you to space.

      I agree. There are a lot of influential forces telling you to “drink your problems away.” Even my favorite show - It’s always Sunny, says “Force it down with brown.” But please understand the marketing money behind these messages are tremendous.

      Drugs and alcohol push your brain chemistry towards illness. Therapy and medication help bring it back to normal.
