Transgender relapses into drug use after 2 years of sobriety, because some comedy club visitors asked among themselves if he is a man or a woman. (archive.ph)

First of all, it's nobody else's fault when you can't keep yourself from doing drugs. It's not the fault of the world, you are doing it to yourself.

Second, how fucking dumb do you have to be to be "sober", but still be in those circles where people just happen to have some coke on them at a concert? It was only a matter of time.
This person WANTED to relapse a bit. This was just an excuse.

I could not have said it better myself. He chose a “trigger” that is forbidden to call out or question so he can claim the relapse was someone else’s fault.

Basic rule of sobering-up when you can't control your consumption : find friends who don't or rarely take drugs and make sure you don't put yourself in the situations when drugs are passed around.

This person is a typical Leftist : won't take any personal responsability, demands the government steps-in to control everyone around them to compensate mental problems and their lack of self-control.

People react in different ways, to be fair. And it can be delayed, too, I think. Hopefully not the case, as I don't wish ill on anyone, but for all we know that guy goes back home and completely fucking loses it.

But yeah, it's certainly not a good position to be in, relapsing even a little.

I have wondered the same thing about myself. I've gone back to drinking a couple of times. I drink for a night and then wake up feeling like shit. Quit again. No real drama; I just don't want to live that cycle any more. Which, in my experience all drugs have. Even if you do something that has less of a physical hangover, it's still a cycle of being really high and really low. When you're used to being more even, that's not fun.

That sounds about right. I can say that when you get to the point where you need it, you're not really getting high any more. It's more like you're perpetually in pain the rest of the time, and using drugs just makes it go away for a while. It's no way to live. Sobriety isn't rainbows and puppies all the time, but it's better than that.
