I'm used to this by now, so it really won't affect me, but it is certainly a bit strange for people who claim to be 'in recovery' from addiction to actively dissuade others from quitting the use of alcohol and drugs, wouldn't you say?
I figured out long ago that there is something to be said for a brain that runs on its own chemicals, and that abstinence is its own reward. Contrary to what people who are still stuck in the bubble of addiction may think, life is not hollow and meaningless without getting drunk and high. It is rich with opportunity.
