tweet by Johann Hari: The core of addiction is not wanting to be present in life, because pour life is too painful a place to be. This is why imposing more pain or punishment on a person with an addiction problem actually makes their addiction worse.

    I just found these drugs on you, which you are obviously using. How’d you like to pee in a cup while a creepy, uniformed man watches your dingdong intensely?

      If you don’t want to be watched by a creepy uniformed man you can come to the police station and do it in the toilet.

      Or just, not do stuff that’s illegal. If people nowadays still do it knowing they risk jail, risking a brief uneasy situation seems way less threatening.
