It makes them feel good for a very short period of time. The effects are cumulative and they often don't feel good when they're lit anyways. I had a roommate totally drop of the face of reality. He was "sick" 1/3 of the day, completely whacked out the 1/3, and was having hallucinations and paranoid delusions the other 1/3. It's fucked.
Same thing happened to this girl. She went nuts, hurt herself, hurt her mother, ran away, ended up in a homeless camp. The needles were the least of her problems.
Also 13 is old enough to have serious problems if your parents are shitty enough. Her parents divorced and her mother remarried and it really seems like she wants an excuse outside her home. Not hard to paint the picture here. I'll give the MGTOW set their due here, she probably would have been better off in her fathers custody, if I had to guess.
It *is* fucked. My great uncle was prescribed vicodin, this was in the 90s in Appalachia when/where doctors were *particularly* heavy handed about prescription doses. It was also when most information about these wonder drugs was not readily available.
He got fucked. He went from an otherwise healthy man with arthritis to an obese shell of a man within a couple years. He's still extremely addicted to vicodin, the family has no idea how the fuck he's still *alive*. He's 80 and completely miserable. He's physically dependent on the opiates and has tried to quit a couple times and almost died each time.
It was a gateway for him to other opioids like morphine and heroin. He's completely hopeless without the care of his children. He can't even walk.
Contrast that with my grandfather, his brother, who's more fit and active than people half his age. My great uncles struggles were his motivation to not trust the medical system. My grandfather also has bad arthritis. What did he do for arthritis instead of the pills? He started lifting weights, and it has been immensely beneficial for him, he's as spry as a 45 year old at 74 because of heavy iron discs.
Does strength training fix everything? It damn near does.
