9/26/19 Heroin/Meth Are Way Too Scary?

    I spent the night looking at videos with people doing meth and/or heroin on YouTube and I cannot understand how anyone who sees the results of what the drug does would be interested in even sampling these horrible drugs.  We see these pretty girls, full of so much potential, and all they can think of is where they can get their next fix.  Some of the clips were from a show called Intervention and they all do pretty much the same thing.  They beg on the family, which don't want to give up on their kid, the user is rude, threatening to do more harm to themselves unless they are given money for their next fix, they show them stealing, hanging out with "creepy older men", or straight up prostitution when they  have no other choice.  I understand once they are in the throes of addiction, but knowing it leaves you looking like shit before it kills you, why try it in the first place?
    I am not trying to be racist or whatever, but when looking at all these clips, it seems that heroin/meth is a white people thing.  I must have seen like 30 clips and I don't think I saw a black person tripping on either drug.
    The gross part was some of the clips have some people even only 2-4 years apart from before they were using the drug to a few years into using and they seem to have aged 40 years or more.  Their faces just collapse, they loose all their teeth, their skin gets all pock marked, I don't think they shower with their greasy hair.  Even worse, the houses they hang out to get high can be worse looking than the people, if that is possible.  Mattresses on the floor, walls all destroyed, trash all over, dishes all over, if there is a light source, it is always just a bulb in the ceiling.
    If that is not bad enough, they keep inventing newer and stronger drugs, like Fentanyl and bath salts and stuff called Flacca, all designed to give people a 1-2 minute high while ruining the person until death sounds like a good idea for most of them.  I don't know what a solution is for this, but I would say putting a light on what you look like after being on it, even for a short time, would deter some people.
