Maybe therapy should be cheaper then drugs and alcohol.

    Man, it really depends on your substance, where I’m from i know people who easily go through $200 Aud a week on alcohol since it’s so heavily taxed.

    Then coke addicts who can burn 800 a week if they have the funds which is insane.

    Pot heads will do 500 a month

    Sometimes therapy is cheaper.

    Not that i can talk i burn my money on alcohol at the pub because it gives me a place to socialise. I wish I didn’t though since my local pub is 31 dollars for 4 beers and I can easily drink 8 on a Tuesday night.

    Maybe I should go to therapy

      I think youre viewing things through a financial lense, and it is IMO the wrong way to be making decisions for yourself.

      Does being a billionaire make coccaine addiction okay? I mean, I’m okay with that addiction and the impacts it makes on my body and life. But not because i am rich and afford can afford it. I just like how I feel when I use. Which is not often because im broke, although I probably wouldnt use much more if I had free access.

      Long story short, make decisions for yourself because its what you want to do, not because of how expensive or cheap it is.

      Do what you want with your own body of course dont let me tell you how to live.
