Anyone can end up poor. Anyone can end up an addict. Even you.

Get off your high horse.

And yet... It could still happen. You're still not immune to it.

I’d be sure not to be a junky though. Even in hard times staying sober isn’t unreasonable ask. You can do as little as possible and be poor but survive. You can be a hard worker and earner and a functioning addict and it may work. Being poor and an addict is digging your own grave. The immortal words of Dean Wormer- “fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son”.

Of course you would. No one ever expects to be an addict. You must have super powers.

Holy shit I’ve had multiple surgeries as recent as last year. It’s really easy to not be a fucking loser and a drain on friends, family and society. Good lord you people are fucking weak. Lol

You people? I'm not an asshole. Compassion and kindness and not being an ass aren't weakness.

Meant the thought that being an addict is out of one’s hands. Its pain management. Not taking what it needs to be numb and pain free. Misuse is entirely on the user. Same with chronic pain. For most it’s paying the piper of not taking care of oneself over a lifetime.
