[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now the host has moved out of the rental, put his stuff in storage and checked himself into rehab. He's supposed to be an HIV researcher? Has a super messy life. [/quote] You don’t think research professionals can have addiction problems?[/quote] Thank you for responding to poster’s display of ignorance. This guy is a well respected research scientist on HIV and covid. He’s also an addict. Over the course of my life I’ve known hundreds of addicts - from family members to friends to lovers to colleagues to clients and victims I represented. Addicts come in all shapes and sizes and in all walks of life. As an attorney I knew of specific colleagues who struggled with addiction but in general also know that the profession has a high rate of substance use disorder. So do the medical professions and many other high pressure professions, and so do many occupations where the issues isn’t so much the stress of the work on your mind but on your body, and the stress in your mind is more about lack of opportunity and despair. Many addicts are formerly abused children, and those are also from all walks of life. And yes, the lives of addicts are messy. But a great many addicts are very accomplished people who make great contributions to society while struggling with use disorder.[/quote] Americans spend an estimated $100 billion on illegal drugs. There are plenty of users and addicts who occupy all HHI and education levels. [/quote]
