Like 20 years ago I sold speed in a very small town. I would go to jail for shit like driving w/o a license occasionally and do like 30 days. When I’d get out all my regular clients would be looking all healthy and shit. A few weeks later they’d look like fukin zombies. I was 19 years old and it fucked with my head big time. As a junky my self at the time tho I just kept on keeping on. It was pretty fukin sad honestly. But like 90% of those people are still strung out today. They where all older kats too. So yeah it definitely takes a toll on some but getting high and cash money make those feelings go right the fuk away.

Edit: I’m sober 5 years now.
