Today's topic is: 'Your views on drugs and alcohol.'
I am quickly going to remind you that everything I publish on this blog (and my second blog for that matter) are my own thoughts and opinions. You may not agree with them and that is fine. Like I said, it's an opinion. Mine and yours; they don't need to be the same. Even so, I almost always ask for your thoughts in the comments.
With that said, let us advance to the topic at hand.
Drugs and alcohol is a very controversial topic and I am quite grateful for the opportunity to be able to write about in a relaxed setting such as my blog. It gives me a chance to voice my opinion on the subject without having other people interrupting to counter my opinion.
Drugs for a medical use that are used in a controlled, appropriate setting are absolutely okay. They are necessary to help with sickness, injury, and surgery. Nothing wrong with that. Although I prefer natural healing, sometimes doctor prescriptions are necessary.
On the other hand, when drugs are used wrongfully it is not okay. When drugs are used as an escape for problems, it is not okay. There are better ways to handle a situation. So many better ways. And the fact that so many people find drugs necessary to handle a situation breaks my heart. Then they get addicted, and you end up seeing them on reality TV shows like Beyond Scared Straight and sad youtube videos.
I can truthfully say that I have never taken drugs of any kind other than my own doctor prescriptions. I hold myself to high standards and never plan on taking drugs to escape my problems. The same goes for alcohol.
Drinking to get drunk is completely wrong. The idea that you can drink away a situation or problem is completely ridiculous. It's not true. Being drunk has no benefits. In fact, it's harmful. It's harmful to your body, to the people around you, to your relationships.
I must acknowledge the fact that some people only drink occasionally or for religious reasons. It would not be harmful then.
Overall, I must say that I am against drugs and alcohol. There are certain situations where they are appropriate, but are abused so often I would recommend avoiding them all together.
