An amazing story. I have never taken any drugs (not even cannabis as a student!) and never felt the desire to do so. Life is a challenge and not always easy - but that's why we're here, to face these challenges and not escape them.
I'm sure that Tobi will have some wise words on this topic. Her experience in such areas is, I'm sure, much greater than mine.
If people must take drugs, they deserve our sympathy, but also they need help to escape the downward spiral. The young lady who volunteered at the centre mentioned in the article deserves a medal. Not only did she save a mouse who was affected (not part of the standard brief) but was also recovering from pneumonia herself at the time.
This part of the article really sums up the important point to be learnt:
