[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most adults in America period cope with alcohol or drugs (weed, coke, psychedelics, ketamine, etc.). Very few holistically healthy adults exist. And then the position corrupts. You cannot remain healthy by putting on an act nearly every day for the world to cruelly attack. No amount of positive praise can completely drown out the scathing critiques that all influencers deal with.

Some celebrities can cope by ignoring the public outside of work but for influencers, your whole life is work.[/quote]

Bullshit. If this is your reality, find a healthier social circle. I mean this sincerely. [/quote]

Came here to same the same thing. Both of my parents were addicts and i saw an up close account of how that life plays out with an early death and funerals with only family because as it turns out, addicts don't have friends. As a kid I just decided that life wasn't for me and have spent my entire life cultivating an existence that isn't dependent on substances. It required me finding new friend groups in college and in early adulthood often but it wasn't difficult. I'm now 50 and none of my friends use drugs or abuse alcohol (I had one friend in my adult life who was an alcoholic and she died at 40). If you're under the assumption that most adults in America cope with alcohol or drugs, please, please find a healthier social circle as pp mentioned. There are SO MANY holistically healthy adults. My life hasn't been a walk in the park and dealing with two addict parents was extremely difficult, but I never once thought that my life would be better if I became an addict myself. [/quote]
