Hate myself because drugs are unethical

[Emerita]

There is no doubt that illegal drug production and trafficking have resulted in immense death and suffering. This impact extends far beyond the myself, it perpetuates the broader cycle of violence and exploitation. By purchasing drugs, I contribute to a system of corruption and suffering from the crimes committed within the system. I can ignore the suffering addiction has caused me, I cannot deny that I am actively enabling something with torturous and horrific consequences. The murder, human trafficking, violence etc. my high comes from the cost of others crimes.

Just another reason I will kill myself.

I think you should not blame yourself for sth you have no influence on. If you like to consume drugs for any reason it's your right to get high.

The illegal drug market (and what's connected directly and indirectly to it) could be easily dried out if governments legalized them and they were available OTC in pharmacies.

Imo drugs are not unethical - the root of all evil is money! Yet it's the fuel of the society we're living in and a necessity.

I agree with that but I still enable something I know has caused the suffering of many. I have heard and seen things that are unspeakable I can't forget that suffering and I know that there is far more and worse. I wish I could cook my own personal meth.

I'm so sorry, this wouldn't happen if drugs were legal; the problem is prohibition. And remember, under capitalism, there is no ethical consumption is not only you and not only the illegal drugs...

It's unfortunate. The problem stems after the addiction. I think the best thing to do when it comes to drugs is to just stay away from them in the first place.

People fall into it due to either peer pressure or to see what it's about for the first time thinking they can stop it if it gets bad. But they aren't designed for that. Drugs are designed to pull you in deeper and deeper. So in a sense, you're also a victim.But you also understand the horror of the trade so that's a good thing.

I am a victim of myself, not of peer pressure or the drug itself. The first time I tried meth, I bought it voluntarily then I sat alone in my room looking at it, I cried because I knew exactly what was going to happen. When I took it, I felt better than I ever had. I cried again (seems to be a theme) not out of sadness, but from overwhelming happiness. For the first time, I felt free from pain and suffering. My heart raced so fast that I thought I might die, yet I felt a profound sense of peace. I wanted that feeling to last, and I knew beforehand I would feel that way that I wouldn't be able to stop.

I feel the same sort of way about a lot of the products we buy and use- clothing, electronics, food, anything really. If we got it for a bargain, that likely means some poor sod wasn't paid enough to build or harvest it. But then, how many of us are paid enough? We just become convinced we deserve these things and try not to think of the consequences. I almost don't want to know what goes on a lot of the time...
