I agree with everything you have to say sqrl. Our nation and our health system is a sad state of affairs when it comes to drugs, legal or illegal.

I like that you made the point that not all drug use is drug abuse, but for ME it WAS abuse and that is the only point I was trying to make in my original post. But the flip side to that point sqrl is that there are ppl out there disillusioning themselves into their drug ABUSE falls into the category of drug USE. This where we need to be cautious. I don't want to perputuate someones disease of addiction. I don't mean to imply that you've said anything wrong here, only that I wanted to clarify my response to your very accurate statement.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts sqrl. Always a welcome fresh perspective. TgrsPurr. xo
