Things We Forget

One way I’ve grown this year was by learning that cocaine is bad for your brain. This was said to me by a medical professional as something that they thought should have been obvious to me; however, I had never before discussed my cocaine usage with anyone from the medical profession, so I had no idea.

In retrospect, it seems obvious that cocaine would affect the brains reward system. But, for some reason, I never thought of this before. It was probably the addict part of the brain obfuscating that information. I am glad this was plainly stated to me by my medical professional – otherwise, this fact may have led to my demise.

How have you grown this year? Comment to let me know!
