that guy was probably an alcoholic for years. organ failure at that level takes years to develop. one overdose of a hardcore drug and you can die. ask heath ledger. it’s far easier to happen to b/c nobody knows exactly what potency crap they are snorting or injecting. or what’s been added to it.

It started near the end of his high school, and he died at 27.

But speaking of Ledger, I have found his case curious for some time now, because during my pill addiction, I did combinations and amounts that dwarfed what he did, yet he is gone and I remain.

That is one that I can’t figure out other than to say it was not my time yet, and God still has some purpose for me.

Combinations of benzodiazepines, anti-histamines and opiates are absolutely lethal, and yet somehow I survived and he did not.

I was sad when he died. Even though I know he was a lib, and that we would agree on nothing, knowing what I know about my habits at the time, I kind felt like it shoulda been me instead.

That dude was not trying to kill himself on drugs, but I was.

I’m glad I failed in that effort though.

Ditto for alcohol.

Another argument in favor of legalization: only legal products can be effectively regulated for potency and purity.
