If someone needs drugs to cope with this world, it is obvious that they have a serious problem.
This world takes no prisoners, it is harsh and unforgiving, dog eat dog in a rat race of disgusting people.
You insulate yourself from it and them with the love of family and friends, with the life you lead and with what you do and who you are.
Only those who have no friends, who have no family, who have no life because of their own poor choices or toxic personality have a problem coping with this world.
Perhaps drugs are not the only answer.
Perhaps if these people got a life, gave instead of taking, loved instead of using people, dedicated themselves to something more important than themselves, they could learn that in this way life and this world cant hurt them.
Just like trolls cannot hurt people who are secure and strong, the world has no power over the strong and giving personality.
No family and friends due to their own poor choices?
Spoken like someone with no actual idea at all.
It is obvious that it is you who has no Idea.
Friends and families don't just happen, and being a total idiot can only be tolerated for just so long before friends and families alike can take no more.
I have seen the result of these toxic people and how they have tried to destroy families and friends.
Those with the strength, just rid themselves of these toxic personalities.
Those without fall into the spiral downward into destruction.
This is what I mean by poor choices.
Sure stick by people when they are in trouble, that much is true, and the sign of a true friend.
But how many times must one bail a friend out, give them help, time and money before it is too much?
Drugs, like suicide is the cowards way out.
very good post Valkie.
we "construct" for ourselves an "ecosystem of positive emotions"
Think of yourself as an awesome nightclub, full of positive emotions.
Only let in people who are going to amp this awesome vibe.
You need strong personal boundaries ( a strong bouncer).
Anything that is affecting the awesome vibe , toss it out.
That includes anyone who is negative , complaining or refusing to contribute. It also includes your OWN NEGATIVE THOUGHTS. these are ejected .
Any good people, good food, good experiences, good books, good mentors, positive people are to be pursued and welcomed into your own personal ecosystem.
You have to "build this structure"
It wont build itself.
Drugs are just for lazy people who wont do the hard work of building an awesome life full of passion, positivity and tons of good emotions.
They are the easy way (and the wrong way) to feel good
