I am not easily offended. One of the very few things that does offend me is celebrities who glorify drug abuse. Denial, I can accept as a symptom of the disease, but cashing in on what they think is cool about drug abuse is just really sick and crass. Steve-O is someone who offends me in this way. He has a lot of fans. They expect him to die young and they think that is cool, it is NOT cool.

Drug Treatment is, unfortunately, not cool either. But effective drug treatment can offer drug users a new lease on life. The Watershed treatment programs are effective. Their website is the best drug treatment site I have seen so far. It has content like video and profiles of alumni. It has an option to chat live over the internet with a real counselor. The best words I saw on the site were ‘Cannot Afford Treatment? Call Anyway. We Can Help.’ I haven’t seen words like that written elsewhere, and I don’t think it was even inferred.
