Drugs, alcohol give false sense of escape from life stressors: HC
The Hindu
‘Those moments of escape are temporary and come with consequences’
There is a perception that using drugs and alcohol can be the perfect way to escape from life stressors and other difficult issues, but the ‘cure’ for the internal pain actually creates a worse problem, the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court has said.
Hearing a batch of bail and anticipatory bail petitions filed by several individuals from southern districts, Justice B. Pugalendhi observed that when a person was drunk or high on drugs, he might have positive and euphoric feelings. Such substances could dull emotions and make painful feelings disappear temporarily.
