More people who take prescription meds should see themselves as drug users. More people who drink coffee and booze should see themselves as drug users. Considering yourself a drug user puts you in solidarity with people who use criminalized drugs! It turns out that criminalizing only some substances and then classing people who use those as "drug users" is yet another way for the state to divide & conquer, but also you do not personally have to engage in the criminalized drug trade or take criminalized substances to like...support people who do & learn how to use Narcan. Addiction (and where the line is between addiction and recreational use!) becomes easier to understand when you can compare other stories of chemical dependance to your caffiene withdrawls on a no-coffee morning.

i feel like no one really wants to hear that sleep/exercise/nutrition/hydration are major factors in treating mental health issues bc we’ve all talked to that person who thinks your depression would be cured by one good session of goat yoga or whatever but unfortunately they do help and i’m chronically annoyed about it

happy pride month id like to thank the universe for not making me straight
