“Better living through chemistry!”, I call it.
I’ve always called it “Better living through chemical dependency!”
Reminds me of this quote from the opening scene of Wolf of Wall Street:
On a daily basis I consume enough drugs to sedate Manhattan, Long Island, and Queens for a month. I take Quaaludes 10-15 times a day for my “back pain”, Adderall to stay focused, Xanax to take the edge off, pot to mellow me out, cocaine to wake me back up again, and morphine… Well, because it’s awesome
Had a disc blow out last month, and I still have XR morphine from my friend dying of cancer, and whoa but this dude is right
But after a few days you really want a more potent opiate. Which, don’t worry, you will still take with the morphine cause you’re dependent now.
Thankfully they did emergency surgery or I’d be on the way to becoming a statistic.
Some “make-me-awake”-drugs make me sleep. Take that, science!
