I know there is a lot of younger and older folks on here.
Today i ran into a friend i hadn't seen in about 10 yrs. A guy i played ball against.
He use to be as big if not bigger than me. I didn't even know him at first glance.
He had been addicted to loritab and xanax and speed for years or he told me that.
His health is to the point his heart is ruined. Doctors have told him his body is 20 yrs older inside than out. Basically the drug abuse has done him in.
And this was a person most would not of thought about being a pill head as i call it.
Great job. Great life.
Now he's about 160 lbs of what did i do to myself.
Having to take about 12 medications a day to just live now.
And all because he had to have some pills to start his day and to end it.
Oh and yeah it almost ruined him financially, as his habit was up to 200 dollars a day.
I didn't really know what to say to this friend. But he said it all. I did it to myself. I knew what i was doing and i let it take over and consume my life.
If your doing it or know anyone that is. Stop doing it and if you know someone who is. Get them some help. Talk to them.
This guy is all of 47 years old and just a few years of abuse has all but destroyed him.
Told me straight out tonight if he lives 10 more years it will be a miracle and that is from his doctors. Even now that he is off the pills, way to much damage to his body.
It ain't worth it folks.
