"Yes, I am an alcoholic, that's why I am here at St. Jerome's Treatment Facility. I'm also a cocaine addict. Cocaine is the big lie. It robbed me of many things, my self-respect, my morals, and perhaps it will take my life." "I am afraid to die. I might have AIDs and I am terrified." Do you think the highs drugs give are worth the cost to health and sanity?

No, everything that has been confiscated cannot be compared. A friend of mine is a junkie, and he is no longer in this world.

Of course not...Anything we are addicted to, unless it is something postive..generally robs us of quality of life.

You are right on that. It robs you of so much.
