dugindeep30-Day Challenge, Day 3: Your Views on Drugs and Alcohol
Is it ironic that I'm making this post semi-hungover? Ugh. So, I enjoy drinking, and I used to do it to an unhealthy amount. I've scaled back A LOT and am still kind of working on acknowledging when to stop and all that. So, I have a love-hate relationship with alcohol. Drugs on the other hand ... well, I smoke, when I know I shouldn't, but have also cut back on that. But anything else? Aside from prescription drugs that are needed and taken as prescribed, I am not a-okay with. I don't even like marijuana, and actually judge it pretty highly given that my brother's ex is a huge-ass pot head, and has been since her mother got her into it at age 12 (which also scares us since my niece is now 12).
Relatedly, though, I'm fascinated by stories of people overcoming addiction and what fuels the addiction and the recovery. I've seen SO MANY episodes of Intervention, I probably needed my own intervention to get over it. IDK, I just consider it apart of my love for documentaries.
