I cant sympathize with repeated terrible decisions. Its like smoking and then complaining about your lung cancer It's almost like you don't understand what addiction is Given you, that's believable. ... Copied to Clipboard!

100% agreed. It's a terrible thing to experience or witness what it can do to someone. Speaking from experience, I've battled with Marijuana addiction for nearly a decade and it's what triggered my first psychotic experience and I've been battling mental illness ever since always doing good in life when I'm not smoking until I relapse again :( right now I have a supportive wife and have been clean for over 3 months. I was never a drinker but mj has messed me up. Careful bro. CE will tell you marijuana addiction is bullshit and marijuana is harmless. anyways this is an obvious D. If you're in active addiction, probably yeah. If you're recovered, you probably a good person (you pretty much have to be unless you want to stay using/drinking) --- David Mink.

It's almost like you don't understand what addiction is He's not being especially empathetic, but I think you're glossing over how people get addicted in the first place. Maybe you don't judge someone for using drugs they're addicted to, but maybe you should judge people for e.g. recreationally using drugs and then building a dependence. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

don't worry I judge everyone but NOT mindlessly

No, you really shouldn't. I'm not saying that I think you should. I just don't think you've really done a good job of defending that viewpoint. You've mostly just defended that we shouldn't judge people for doing things that addiction makes them do. Does this hold in your mind for essentially any problem that arises because of poor decisions that people make? Does the severity of the consequences change how much we can judge people for the initial decision? Etc. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

OctilIery posted...No, you really shouldn't. There are definitely situations where the judgement is OK, what I'm saying is if you see them and judge them without knowing their history, then you're a bad person for judging them. If you don't know the circumstances of the original decision, you can't judge. ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's so easy to tell who has no experience with actual addicts. Mostly the ones who speak as if being an addict automatically makes you immoral.

I feel sympathy for addicts who realize the mistakes they've made and are trying really hard to make an honest effort to quit their addiction but can't get over the hump.
I don't have much sympathy for addicts like my sister, who's addicted to heroin, who realizes she's a heroin addict but does nothing to attempt to overcome it despite being faced with multiple opportunities, she's lost custody of all five of her kids cause she's an unfit parent, yet she comes up with every excuse under the sun to not take accountability for her actions and still comes up with a sob story for why she should be able to take care of her kids when she clearly can't do so. --- ...

Yes and no. Some people have no intention of ever trying to get better. They lie to and cheat the people they know for a fix. They let their kids live in squalor. They remain scumbags for their whole lives. Other people can make it out and return to life as if the addiction was just a passing phase.

I feel for people hooked on narcotics. A lot of that starts as a legit prescription for a pain problem of some sort. But someone that is a Coke or meth head I find a lot harder to understand I moved on to meth from prescribed adderall. Its not quite as common, but it happens. I had a little AMA here on an alt account a month or two ago about it. --- InfoChammel... the future... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLCllmnyCTY ... Copied to Clipboard!
