Can substance abusers really be trusted? by King Steelo

From my experience as a substance abuser---can we really be trusted? The flat out answer is NO! It gets worse and worse as our drug of choice becomes priority and we do what ever we have to---just to fulfill our RUSH! It's continuous problems with immediate gratification! Manipulation in all of our conversations and swear we're in isolation---but it's our loved ones we hurt. Failing our dependents is what got us in this messed up situation. Yet we have to learn the hard way, even stab you in the back---the aftermath---PRISON is the consequences of our acts. TRUST is earned but quickly can be burned. We mess up chance after chance and burning bridges is all we know---can we substance abusers really be trusted? Ask our families they will say HELL NO!
I wrote this while sitting in substance abuse class serving my last prison sentence. Now I'm free and temptations try to ambush me everyday but I maintain and keep positive people around me. You can do the same my ex-cons coming home but stay on point because RELAPSE is a religion out here...
