drugs
the thing no one tells you about drugs is that they create another version of you. a version where you’re fun, creative, innocent, interested, interesting, passionate. The problem isn’t the person you become while high, but the remainder who has to do shit the next day. Me right now. The person who can barely form coherent sentences because everything seems pointless and it is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore the hole i’ve dug myself into. the problem is the person who just woke up at 3:47pm, ignored several messages from work, two interviews, my girlfriend… but you keep doing it, because you want people to think that he is the real you. the fun one they got for the few hours they spent in his presence. But he’s not. He's just one swing of the pendulum of personalities I force myself through on a weekly basis.
