  • “A high is just another means of coping with life. It is a drug-induced fantasy, replacing reality with something surreal. Persons become something greater than they think they can ever be, escape the chains of reality, peer into worlds unknown to them and just feel really good. People stay in an addicted lifestyle because the addiction has become their primary coping mechanism. However unhealthy and self-destructive their addiction may be, it continuously works and it's accessible. No fear of the unknown when maintaining an addiction. Persons friends are either not their true friends or perpetuating the addiction. It's like swan-diving into quicksand, unless you have a really good friend to pull you out, you're a goner.” - T.J.
  • “I don't know why other people stay addicted, but for me its the only thing I can turn to. I hate cutting so much, but I'm too scared to tell, and I can't face people's reactions. Its something thats always there for me no matter what happens, its a way of escaping reality, and forgetting about everything. No matter how temporary it is its a relief to escape all the pain. I never meant to get addicted or anything, but now I just cant stop.” - Rachel
  • “Freedom from pain. The release is unlike any other. Escape. Relief. Although temporary, sometimes seconds are just enough. For me, to leave this lifestyle would equal more pain. The only way out would be to deal with internal past stuff that I don't want to deal with and to be honest can't really identify at the moment.” - Sarah
