Some people can do a line of coke and leave it at that. Others get a tiny taste and will do anything for the tiniest bit more.
It makes it very dangerous when people don’t understand human variation. People it doesn’t effect much or who aren’t prone to addiction will act like it’s no big deal, then some unlucky sucker who hangs out with at a club becomes an addict overnight.
I get zero pleasure from cocaine. It’s literally just a tool to keep drinking. (NB: don’t do this. It’s terrible for your heart) But for some of my friends it’s the end-all, be-all. They wanna do lines all weekend and I’m just like, “why?”
Depends on the perspective, I think people going off the deep end are rather unhappy that their drug of choice is cheap, readily available yet unhealthy, comes with all kinds of nasty side effects and is quite dangerous once you’ve reached a certain point.
I can say that while my drinking was risky at times, it seems I never enjoyed it as much as some others, reached I liked it but when I quit / faded it out I didn’t really miss it. It seems other people have a much harder time not drinking. So I consider myself lucky there.
Not hating on booze or anyone enjoying it. Just offering some perspective on your statement.
Drugs aren’t the same for everyone…

Luckily for me alcohol is my cocaine.
