I fully agree. At school we had like a lecture on drug use and my teachers entire point was that he was going to be fair by saying all the good effects as well as the bad ones or something idk. Then at some point he started to talk about addiction and then he says he would bring a drug addict (I'm pretty sure he specified a recovered one but maybe not) in but that would be "dangerous". Like no drug addicts aren't all dangerous (obviously some are) and it just annoyed me sm he said he would be fair then stereotyped people who are suffering with addiction like most of them (if not all) had no choice in that addiction. Addiction happens for so many reasons from things as simple as getting addicted to pain medication after a serious injury to having used it as a coping mechanism for trauma and it going too far or maybe they just lived that life style. Either way they still deserve respect and don't deserve to be shamed for their struggles.

From my experience, drug addicts don’t care about “stigma”. In fact most people on drugs couldn’t give less of a shit about anything. bc that’s what drugs do to you. The vast majority of drug addicts will never seek out help on their own regardless of stigma around their drug/s of choice. Drugs cause physical dependency, and withdraw symptoms and drug induced paranoia make it almost impossible to go through alone. People need support from family and friends to push them into rehab and also to force them to stay in it. Unfortunately, lack of familial support is what often causes drug addiction in the first place The other major problem for victims of drugs is the lack of care facilities and rehab facilities. Sometimes even if you do have support trying to help you, there are not any nearby facilities available to you. Whether it be to price or lack of facilities altogether. The government simply does not care about the misfortunate. They do not want to put money into helping the poor, the mentally ill or the physically ill. While it would be nice to get rid of stigma around drug abuse simply to educate, I do not believe that it will help anyone struggling with addiction.

Yea while it’s mostly that the ‘only difference’ between crack and cocaine is baking soda in the synthetic process, it makes a huge difference in the distribution and metabolism of cocaine in the body, and in the onset time and duration of their effects. Crack has significantly more abuse potential because its onset and duration of action is shorter than for cocaine, coupled with the fact that the highs are higher and the crashes happen much faster with crack smoking than with other cocaine routes of administration. That’s to say that the smoking route delivers the drug’s effects much quicker than snorting, and you can’t smoke cocaine but you can smoke crack. You’re right that crack use is demonized disproportionately, largely because of its class and racial dimensions, but there is reason to believe crack is more addictive than cocaine. Neither crack nor cocaine use should be glamorized or demonized, they should be understood for what they are and people with substance use disorders deserve dignity and compassion irrespective of their drug of choice.

My knee had been hurting and impacting my day to day life. It finally got to the point where I was tired of the pain so I went to the doctors to see what was wrong and unfortunately I overheard one of the medical professionals in the hall say that I should lose some weight and that might help. I was frustrated and disappointed that someone who’s a medical professional would even think to say this, even if it wasn’t to me directly it’s still very concerning especially since I’ve struggled with how I view my body my whole life. 💔

That’s really shitty. I understand where they’re coming from in the sense that excess weight really can put a lot of additional stress on your joints, but that scenario still shouldn’t have happened. The doctor should have taken your concerns seriously and ordered tests/X-rays etc to make sure that everything else was alright before basically just jumping to the conclusion that it’s your weight that’s the cause. So many heavier set ppl die because of medical neglect and it’s bs. Please know that the size of your body doesn’t determine your worth or attractiveness. You don’t have to change yourself to get approval or attention. If you want to work on your health in one way or another that’s cool, but the act of you being overweight does not matter. There is no morality associated with weight or size. I really hope your knee pain has subsided or that you’ve at least gotten some answers. ❤❤❤❤

I think one of the issues with the whole "just stop being depressed" thing stems from people who are not depressed but in a state of sadness that find they can snap themselves out of it and assume it was depression. So in their mind if they can just "stop being sad" then surely depressed people can as well! It's just hard for people to fully tell if what they have is depression or not and sometimes people can label things that arent depression as depression and people with depression can think they don't have depression then shame themselves when they find they cant just "not be sad".

7:14 It really is insane how much some medicines cost, especially the ones people need to survive. I currently have a stomach bug and had to get some antibiotics and prescription nausea medication to deal with it because it’s worse than usual. My insurance denied coverage to the anti-nausea meds and those alone would’ve cost me $250. Luckily the pharmacy techs were super sweet and helped me find a bunch of coupons and whittle the price down to only $20, but I can’t imagine how much worse that would’ve been if it was a life saving medication like insulin. If they can charge these ridiculous prices for what is essentially prescription strength pepto bismol, I genuinely don’t want to think about how high the prices are for more potent or life-saving drugs.

my guess is that the “just because you have good peripheral vision” one is responding to the… interesting brand of internet (especially tiktok) pop psychology that’s like “if you do [general thing that lots of people do] you have [specific mental health thing / trauma]” or whatever. like i can absolutely picture some tiktoker trying to tell us that good peripheral vision is a sign of childhood trauma because you would’ve had to be hypervigilant and hyperaware all the time or something like that. so without further context, i read the tiktok screenshot as like “guys c’mon let’s be serious” but i could be interpreting it wrong 🤷
