Why do people always say stuff like …
‘Once you go down that path, there’s no turning back’
In other words:
‘Once you do hard drugs, it’s a life long decision’
What do people mean when they say this?
What makes it a lifelong decision? Does it permanently alter your brain chemistry or something?
If someone uses hard drugs for a few years, is it the likelihood that they’ll always use for the rest of their life? And what changes have they made to themselves aside from the obvious of becoming addicted. Meth users for example.
Also just to be clear.. Im asking for my lab rat of a friend, it has nothing to do with the people around me saying these statements directly.
