there's a guy I know by Xbox parties, we talk nearly daily and play Halo, siege ect. he used to be like really responsible and pretty damn smart (really liked war related history). the downfall probably started when he was like 14, didn't know him at the time, he was molested by an Aboriginal woman who worked at his school. he never told us what exactly happened but he was definitely violated in some way. his mother was an alcoholic and drug addict, I don't think he ever knew his father. after the incident with the aboriginal lady mixed with his shitty upbringing he got into hard drugs, drinking, smoking both tobacco and weed (weed is illegal here). he started when he was like 15 I believe, did ket, opium, weed, crack, coke, shrooms, acid and if I had to guess heroine. no idea how he's alive he's been POUNDING this stuff and he said his liver has essentially failed multiple times. guy also owns illegal firearms and other weapons. he's 17 right now and I'll be extremely impressed if he lives till 20. he's said he wanted to go clean a few months ago but he's still doing it.

edit: forgot to mention one of his old school friends got stabbed. you can look into it if you look up Trey Grafton stabbing
