You may well know quite a few people who still "choof" after 40 years, and they may seem ok to you and others, but the damage you can't see is hidden away in their heads, not for public display or at work, whatever work they do!
I'm pushing 69 yrs now, and I can pick a junkie, or tweaker or potmonster a kilometre away!

And a choofing alcoholic is a different animal altogether, I suppose its the fact that when stoned or ****ed you don't have proper self control, not just your head, but your body, and especially morals and ethical behaviour goes out the window!

Eventually that behaviour leads to a feeling of worthlessness and you question who and why you are the way you are!..it's depressing really, for them and those closest to them.


Cheers Billy.
