Not everybody using substances is “spoiled.”
Sometimes the person is overwhelmed.
Numb.
Lonely.
Trying to escape their own thoughts.
And many addictions begin very quietly.
One coping mechanism.
One friend group.
One habit that slowly becomes dependency.
Then suddenly the person cannot relax, sleep, socialize, or function normally without the substance.
In Kenya we joke about alcohol culture a lot.
But behind some of those jokes are people genuinely struggling.
Substance use is often connected to pain people do not know how to carry.
This is why education around addiction matters.
Not to shame people.
But to understand them better.
