    No-one wakes up and decides that they’re going to get addicted to drugs today. Your life has typically been in a real shit place for a long time and it’s a “fuck it” type situation.

    You don’t usually see happy and wealthy people getting addicted to crack.

      For some people, they see being addicted to drugs as an improvement on their current situation.

      Life is already fucked, might as well get a buzz while I’m doing it.

        Indeed. If drugs are the only thing that can make you feel good, it can feel stupid not to use them.
