What is a addict

True story

By Terrence MedenPublished 4 years ago 3 min read

What is a person really you want to believe every person is a good person right. What happens when we put the word drug addict in there are they really a bad person everyone wants to believe I don’t think so at least not at first. I’ve been around people that have used drugs and haven’t and it’s the same thing everyone has there moments. How about when your a kid growing up you know how many kids get in trouble for doing the wrong things. It’s not till you get older is when you really start learning about what is good or what is bad. But in my eyes everyone in a way is an addict in some kind of way or another like people who steal there after that adrenaline rush right. In my eyes a addict is not a bad person until you really get to know them in person is the true site of things. Now let me tell you in most of peoples eyes you put that addict in front of everyone’s name and there a bad person for most people but you take away addict and there a good person but are they really just like i said it’s until you meet that person and give them a chance to really show who they are or what there all about right. I’ve been around awhile and I’ve seen some people you thought they were good and they take and steal from you cause that’s what they’re about. Those people just leave alone when they start to do that but I’ve seen herion addicts some good people just have a issue because there stuck in that rut because they get sick or withdrawals when they stop using. Now meth addicts those people I’ve seen do anything to steal from everyone I don’t know why two different highs one up and one down have a difference in making those people worse then the other. Well I don’t want to go to far in telling everyone what they need to watch out for but what I’m getting at is give people a chance before throwing them overboard. I’ve seen people just hate on addicts before even knowing them does it really hurt to get to know someone even if there a addict or not. It’s just like prescription drugs you going to knock down those people too. I don’t think so so let’s do are selves some kind of favor here and let’s not knock down everyone you think is bad from the start especially when the words addict come out there mouths. Give people a chance just like your giving me one at reading this cause not all people are bad in my book just some don’t know better at how to live without trying to take things from people but it doesn’t mean that there a addict it’s just they need to learn on how to live life right so give them help if you see something like that let them know what there getting there hands into. It’s better that we teach then let people get away with that kinda stuff right. So teach a different lesson in someone’s book we all learn something everyday don’t we I know I do. So let’s help each other in a more positive manner then a negative one. Give yourself then a round of applause if you do something like that cause we definitely do need more positive people out there I can see of things cause for some reason I’ve been seeing more negative stuff going down and it’s got to do with this virus I believe or should I say it does have to do with it. More people have seen a way of taking more when they shouldn’t because a door opened of new opportunities when that virus came out. I’ve heard of more people taking then helping out in the long run. So everyone I hope you’ve learned something from what I’ve wrote let’s help instead of take.
