Crystal Meths or not?

I’ve written elsewhere about my cousin’s little girl who is dying from a brain tumour, losing all her faculties one by one, whilst her parents and brother look on, helpless and despairing; angrily we talk about injustice in a world where idiots voluntarily damage their healthy bodies, snorting, injecting, imbibing themselves into stupors..and being lauded for it.
I am the loudest with my cynical take on the cult of the drug-wan.kered celebutard and the idolatory industry which makes heroes of the dead whose main contribution to their epithets has been the ability to get slow-clapped off stage for falling asleep during the drum solo after a bottle of Jack Daniels, two spliffs and a noseful of charlie.
However, if I despise a society which praises death by debauchery, I also remember that I too was young and stupid; once upon a time I had a reputation for my craziness with drink and drugs; I’ve woken up in strange places, had my stomach pumped (twice) and had more close shaves than a po rn star’s scrotum; if I wasn’t on uppers I was on downers – jeeezus – I even dropped valium into my lunchtime pints of cider, and acid into my whisky.
Like most young people, I believed I was immortal, on the day that I discovered I wasn’t, the craziness halted, pretty much.
So, if my big old hardened heart sneers at the makers of these false drug-addled gods and goddesses, it still has a beat of pity for the young fools, who think – insofar as they can think atall – that they’re gonna live forever.

I dont get what folk see in her. I dont think she is anything special :?

There are folk in the world dying of Cancer and such, who would give their hind teeth to be healthy, then you get these “celebrity’s” throwing their lives away. Makes me wanna puke!

I have been ill for 16 months now, im unable to work and there is only 1 wage coming in the house. Every penny is accounted for, nothing is left for treats. Then we are expected to feel sorry for these so called celebrity’s cos they cant keep the white stuff outta their nose! Pahhhh!!!!!

what people need to remember is that an addict cant stop their behaviour…and were not just talking celebrities here, were also referring to normal everyday people who go through this. Its all very well looking down your nose at people and saying they brought it upon themselves, but unless you have actually been an addict of either drugs or alcohol, then you cant comment. And no, its not the same as experimenting, addiction goes far deeper, to the point that people cant focus on anything else. Some people on here seem to think that addicts choose to do what they do. Fact – they dont. They are driven by a compulsion inside themselves. Have a little sympathy for gods sake, and im not referring particularly to Amy, but to people living with this in general.

=D> absolutely.

Its an illness as much as any other.
