Junkies are unreliable and often ask for stuff on tick, or worse yet want to barter with shit they stole on the way to your house, call as soon as the sun is up and generally attract more attention than other more respectable drug users. In short, more trouble than they are worth
This is a pretty ignorant comment right here and the fact there still is this divided line, even with the world itself, among drug users, is just ridiculous. Its really needs to stop. There really shouldnt be this divding line at all. What do you think your not suspectible to becoming the full blown addict? Or that you just have these much higher morals/standards or you were brought up different? Its just as bad as "normies" thinking everyone that does drugs is a junkie instead of a possibly a recreational drug user.
According to that comment, im a junkie who is unreliable and not a respectable drug user cause of the substance i enjoy right? But i have a great paying job, B.A. degree, girlfriend, own apartment i pay for, go to work everyday, have relationships etc. Another words, you would have no clue of what i do in private so when i see comments like that i get a little pissy cause its just not true.
I feel there is enough people out there labeling us and promoting bullshit thats negative and untrue about drug users, so why would we do that within our own culture. It makes no sense. I was brought up with the idea of putting myself in other peoples shoes and how i would feel if i was in their situation. Cause 90% of the time, you have no idea what someone is going thru or what kind of person they are. Its just a weak attempt to somehow separate yourself from the world of drugs and the stereotypes even tho you partake in them. You dont want to be like the people everyone shuns cause they do drugs.
Because like normies thinking, its based on stereotypes and not much fact. Im not in the same situation as a drug addict thats homeless huslting everyday on the street, but i am also no different then that person and i dont feel above that person or that i am somehow better then they are. I feel more connected to them then the everyday person going to work. My thought is get over yourself.
