Great article, so true. The only people who don't seem to get this are the users, who often insist it doesn't affect them when they use it in any negative way. Unfortunately, they can't see themselves as others see them.
I was told that this article would have a hard time reaching people due to sounding to Art Linkletterish. You are right that when presenting the reality of the drug that sometimes information is a hard thing to read or hear if it is to close to home.
