If I ever come up with that answer, I'll be sure to let you know....Hopefully, with some of the research into the brain right now we may begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel. We know now for certain that prolonged drug abuse changes the brain---now, how do we UNDO that? To me, it's sad and scary....the best bet? Don't ever start in the first place!

Good point.
There are some drugs that do seem to have severe effects on a person's brain.
And often, in our society, due to our current situation with 'drugs' some of those drugs are cooked up in home labs. Nobody has any idea of what molecules are in them, what drugs, or what their effects are. Just mixtures of who knows what. The mixture gets folks high, so there is a market.
That is scary.
Home cooked drugs; no idea of the actual chemicals in the mix, no idea of the strength, no idea of the effects. wow, that takes a whole new level of stupid to do that stuff.
