It really is true when they say how do u know if a drug addict is lieing as soon as they open their mouth. Because they will say and do anything to get high and yes its a disease but it's a disease thats brought along yourself. It's not like I can say well I didnt know Id become addicted well thats not true. Even I know that and won't even pretend to deney it.
