Of course there are, and I don't think anyone would argue that he's making sound decisions. What I'm saying is that it can be a slippery slope depending on a number of factors that we don't understand since: A. We aren't addicts, and B. We don't know who he is or his life. Because of those reasons, I try not to judge people that go through this kind of stuff.

Millions of people are able to drink alcohol responsibly without it leading anywhere. Those same people are able to use drugs recreationally without it becoming a problem. He's not one of those people, obviously. I'm not smart enough or well-versed enough on addiction to say definitively, but I doubt he woke up one day and just started smoking crack or shooting heroin.

By definition, he did wake up one day and decided hey... it'd be a great day to start some hard core drugs.

crack is nothing like drinking. drinking you generally drink til you pass out. it's a built in stop gap. crack is one of those things that you will do it as long as you have crack and money available. you stop smoking ccrack becuase you run out of money lol. no one in the crackchouse has ever said "'well, it's 9pm i think i need to call it a day and go home and watch sportscenter" lol


which is a problem when you don't really run out of money.
