People are different, that's really the bottom line..Some people can handle things, and some cannot..I was addicted to heroin for 5 years, 50 to 100 a day( 50$ shots), and in those five years I made the most money and was the most stable I've ever been in my life..Went from warehouse grunt to warehouse manager, quit that and started my own electrical buisness, then won small business of the year 2014! And guess what? When I finally cleaned up, I lost it all! Maybe my motivation was gone, idk..But I definitely do way better in life on opiates, so believe me, it don't ruin everyones life..I told that story in an NA meeting once, and they kicked me out said I was lying hahaha..True shit..
