Not just trauma but plenty of genetic disorders (like depression) can also be at the root, usually untreated.
If your struggling with a drug problem right now, just a reminder, you are cared about, at least by me, and im sure others!
My alcoholic father never beat me when he was sober. Taking the drug away from the abuser is more compassionate than claiming the victims lack compassion. We are not laughing. We just understand the situation better.
@Meachamus_Prime Huh? did someone claim the victim lacked compassion or was that a general statement?
@Meachamus_Prime I'm confused, how does laughing at the victim show that the victim lacks compassion?
@Meachamus_Prime Both are victims of different things. Victimhood is hardly mutually exclusive. One generation's victim often becomes the abuser as well as a consequence of that victimhood creating more victims.
@Meachamus_Prime Oh you mean YOU being the victim of your fathers abuse... Sorry I see what you meant now.
Yea taking away the drug is good, laughing at them isnt, but sadly that will rarely address the underlying problem as with most psychological disorders. The drug, afterall, isnt the problem its the symptom.
True, but while the drug is artificially taking away the pain, the abuser has no impetus to learn to deal with the pain. It's simple path of least resistance.
@Meachamus_Prime No doubt, the drug eases the pain they deal with, and while it does create other more serious issues it is still a self reinforcing cycle.
