To some this thread would be depressing. I'm finding it to be a bit of a relief. I have been high or kicking every second of my life since 2010. 12 years feels long. Most of the time I hear about someone with a drug problem, it's for a few years or so, and it sort of feels like that's not really the same, and it's a lonely feeling. Opiate addicts are rare enough, harder, long term ones are even rarer, and the rarest of all: the long term, hardcore, but semi-functioning, Frankenstein-in-sheep's-clothing-addict. It's a lonely club. Can't exactly talk about it at my day job or my gym.
