Unfortunately in our society there are drug abusers. Simple. Many of us can dabble in drugs for a bit then get over it and continue on with anew stage in our lives. Others get so deep in shit that they fuck stuff up for the rest of us.
If anyone has access, there's a brilliant article in the Australian GQ Autumn edition this year. Dr Robert Hampshire basically suggests that genetic predispostion has a lot to do with our tendancies to either use or abuse drugs.

I'm not sure where you can find a link to this article but its pretty good and explains a lot.
fuck in heaven
