We are all on drugs...

Did you ever wonder why people take drugs? I was always fascinated by them. The people who take them, not the drugs themselves of course. If you ask me it boils down to control. When nothing else in your life seems in your grasp to hold on too, you can’t really blame a person for reaching out and taking something which she can control.

But what are drugs anyway? We all know about the classics but the ones that fascinate me more are the hidden ones. The drugs that no one wants to really register as being something that we cling on to feel like we’re control of our lives. I’m talking about things like burying yourself in schoolwork, being the go-to slut, being the jock, the nerd, and the cool people drinking after hours… You know who I’m talking about, you’ve all met them, and you might even be one of them.

We all hide; we all do things to get back the control that was stolen of us. We’re all junkies. But at the end of the day one thing is true: We are all on drugs…
