Everybody’s brain chemistry is different, and different drugs are going to react differently with each person. All it took was one bad pill to screw me up bad, and I honestly haven’t been the same since. That was 7 years ago! Sucks!

She also says she didn’t want to get rejected? Most people that do drugs don’t force others to do it. And if they do they probably should not be your friend. So fuck you, I very well know what i am talking about.

This ‘example’ then scares people to thinking that most people will become like this if they start taking these drugs. Once this happens we see laws that will increase spending on drug enforcement where it is not needed(wasteful spending on tax payers). That is why i don’t like this women. She preaches how bad it has become,but if she was more responsible or educated. Maybe this may have never happened. Know the risk and be careful,moderation is key!

I’m saying that she brings shame to drug users that are very responsible with there drug use. She gives drugs a very bad name because she is part of an extreme example. Only 1.3% of people are addicted to drugs like these(stated by Seattle Police Chief Norm Stamper)

ya know im 18 barely even an adult and dont really know all the facts on drugs but
how the hell can you say something like that?
if this can happen to one person (a human being)then how many other people could end up in that horrible state of mind?
ive experienced a simular situation myself and believe me until you have experienced it yourself, YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOURE TALKING ABOUT!
