Is it OK to feel sorry for you? The thought of doing this has never even crossed my mind. People would describe me as a very optimistic and happy person though. I guess I just don't need any drugs for escape, although I do enjoy jumping into a video game and beating up some bad guys. Dynasty Warriors is great therapy.
I feel sorry for who I was.
But I escaped all that, and I have a lot of family and love and caring all around me now. Drug free for decades.
