My point of view is that despite us liking to think we are and even though we are knowledgable about harm reduction and know the risks compared to your average drug user that most if not all of us are actually pretty reckless with our drug use. Poly drug use, drug abuse, combos of drugs that we shouldn't mix, drinking and taking drugs, pushing things a bit too far to the point of addiction, health problems, psychosis, being sectioned and worse of all death in some cases.
We're well educated, we know the score but very few us actually seem to follow the advice we like to give on here. The evidence is all over EADD, stories of people taking things a little too far and as we've seen all too often recently it doesn't always work out OK.
I include myself in all of this, despite knowing all about harm reduction on more occassions than I can count I've fucked up, taken too much, freaked out due to poor set or setting, made a cunt of myself and pissed people off and acted recklessly.
