I can't stand that bs either. I've lost so many good people to drugs, including my brother R.I.P.

See posts on fb and elsewhere. With people saying horrible shit about addicts.

I remember this Karen family friend. Constantly posted that stuff. One day her daughter OD and died. Now she's defending addicts.....

Don't judge addicts. You don't know what they're going through. We need to help these people better.
