“So what can all you pretty young addicts learn from this? Beware. Unhealthy people attract other unhealthy people—and girls on drugs attract bad guys like a wounded baby deer attracts vultures. When you’re high every day, you are vulnerable every day. You are making your judgment all screwy. You will let bad people into your life. They will steal from you and manipulate you, and possibly fuck you while you are sleeping. They will take advantage of your disorientation and messiness. They will take advantage of your numbness—that you aren’t feeling what one should when one is treated atrociously. They will tell you that you look amazing when you’re malnourished. They will shoot you up. They will encourage you to stay on drugs: they want you woozy, emaciated, and addicted so they can keep exploiting you.”

“But I am very poorly today & very stupid & I hate everybody & everything. One lives only to make blunders.”
