Why Do Drug Addicts Think They Are Better Than Everyone Else When They Quit Drugs for a Few Months?

Question by Bryson: Why do drug addicts think they are better than everyone else when they quit drugs for a few months?
My brother is like 20 and he had been on pretty strong drugs since high school. Now, he has been going to “counseling” and stuff and he has not used drugs (supposedly) in a few months. I think he is jusy playing the game though to get money and stuff from my parents, but that’s another story. Anyway he acts like he is better than everyone now, like he is such a great guy. He talks sh*t about my girlfriend behind my back saying that she is a drunk and all kinds of things. Have you known any people like this and why do they become like this? I honestly think he is still on something but “counseling” has taught him how to lie about it better.

Question by josh j: Do you think people under the age of 18 should be aloud to buy cold medicine?
Personal opinion is all I want.

In fact i knew a guy who was a welder4 which u have to be 18 to do who would go to work and buy cold medicine from people at work to make meth out of. So why are minors being punished?

Do You Believe Marijuana Is Bad, and Whether It Should Be Legal?

Question by Liam: Do you believe marijuana is bad, and whether it should be legal?
Personally, I think there is nothing wrong with it. The only thing that can make its use “suggestive”, is that it’s illegal. The reasons for its legal status are not very noteworthy, either. Companies from the early 1900’s knew that hemp was going to bankrupt them all, because of all of its uses. Thus, those companies made things such as Reefer Madness to scare the public into thinking marijuana is immoral and should be illegal. The government should see now that studies are and have been conducted, and pointing towards the idea that marijuana is not bad, and even has many varying health benefits. If marijuana were legalized, law enforcement could stop worrying about the use of marijuana, and crack down on the use of harder drugs with horrible addictions, and harmful effects, such as meth. Anyways, that is how I view the cannabis plant. I believe it should be legal, and is a gift from nature. However, I do respect the opinion of others, and if you think that marijuana is not your thing, or something of that sort, then that is fine. But please do not go around telling people it destroys your brain, and ruins your life, and kills you. That is just not true. I do not wish for a fight here, just looking for others views on this subject.
