Drug addiction. As vast and complex as this topic is, chances are you already have strong opinions based on past experiences. Perhaps you’ve had a bicycle stolen and you’re sure it was taken by someone addicted, looking to sell it for their next fix. You negatively refer to that unknown person as a “junkie”. It becomes your opinion of the drug issue. Perhaps your sister overdosed and died. As a result your parents couldn’t find a way to emotionally support each other so they divorced. The grief was too great. Because of it, you’re angry at anyone who takes drugs. Perhaps you are addicted yourself and have burned every relationship you’ve ever had, including those in your family. You feel lonely, isolated. You believe nobody cares. Every person that has been touched by drug addiction, either personally or through a friendship, a close one or even a brief encounter, has strong visceral feelings about this issue. Feelings that are accompanied with endless questions. Most of which are difficult, emotional, and often unanswered. To find the answers we need to get past the soundbites and stereotypes. We need to dive deeper.
