[QUOTE="EarthIsHard, post: 736509, member: 23004"] I've been thinking about the question above because sometimes I think it's a good idea and sometimes not. I wonder how many people actually use it so they can live more normal lives and go get jobs and just not die from using. Must be a low percent. Those people are already managing the use on their own, don't know how many but personally used to know my friend's friend with a very good career who allowed himself one time a month and actually stuck to that. Probably very unusual. At times I think a clinic would be beneficial for my son because it doesn't seem like he'll ever be able to stop and at least he won't die. Then I'm reminded of all the things that go with that lifestyle. He isn't able to hold a job, the constant stealing to get the drugs, the mindset, or lack of mind that consumes his 24 hours each day. How would giving a place to shoot up help? There's never any reason to stop. It's kind of like him living at home so many years, the only difference is we were trying everything we could to get him help and to stop. There, maybe stopping would be his decision and he wouldn't get the nagging. But how many really do? [/QUOTE]
