sometimes, people like getting high enough that it blunts whatever else they're feeling. but it's not a cure to anything because there's no underlying condition in the first place - it's just somebody getting high.
it's legitimately complete bullshit, through and through.
so, all that any drug that any doctor could do for me is get me high - and i don't like getting high on a regular basis. i prefer to live a largely straight-edge, sober lifestyle, and find the experience of drug use to be frustrating and annoying.
the best way to cure me is to give me more coffee.
