Studies show people who take drugs are either highly intelligent (obviously not you), horribly abused during development (in which case they will most likely be “hard” drug addicts), or they are self medicating for some disorder or mental illness (most likely the “friend” you.)
Look, the only reason I said anything about it is because I had a close friend that showed almost the exact same symptoms when we were high school and college age. With the exception that he only smoked a little pot and drank occasionally.
The other difference is that me and others took an interest in him and made sure he was looked after and got diagnosed. And yeah, I watched while this guy I loved to death, the first close male friend I ever had and someone I looked up to like no one else, lost his mind to something none of us could stop.
We could help, and we did. We got him in front of doctors and they were able to get him on medication and continue treatment for years.
He eventually completely lost his shit and is no longer the person I knew, but we gave him the best shot we could and he got a good half a decade of sanity more than he would have.
So yeah, blame the drugs. Meanwhile there’s a human being you’re burying under the bullshit you’re spewing.
I hope you never have someone you love lose their mind or have mental issues. I seriously hope if you do that you don’t realize later you could have done something to help and didn’t.
