I've managed to avoid that by not actively going out, asking friends where I can get meth/heroin from, approaching a person I believe to be a meth/heroin dealer, trading money for meth/heroin, putting it into a bong, lighting it, inhaling, and repeating until addicted.
I have great sympathy for the disabled and mentally ill. While we do a tolerable job of taking care of the disabled, our mental health system sucks.
But you really undermine your point by including people who deliberately went out of their way to fuck up their life.
Some "fucks up" their life with drugs because at some poit they tried to evade some things. You do not always deliberately fuck your life with drugs sometime you think your life is so fucked up that drugs can't make things worse even if indeed they do but you're past beyond reason
