    He's definitely using something. I study people, their movements, face expressions, etc.. By the lip smacking, way he talks, way he tries to keep calm... It's all proof that he's on something, or that he's an addict. Not cocaine, most probably anti depressants.

    I believe almost wholeheartedly my father used to use it when I was a boy. He worked in Brazil (where he’d spend his nights in clubs) and when he came back every six weeks or so, he’d be extremely aggressive, almost psychotic, his eyes wide open and the like. He was also extremely thin at that time. He’s definitely off it now, since he’s now fat and quite placid in general, while rather emotional (that’s just his personality). It’s literally a hell of a drug.

    Sure sounds like a general over view of anyone on any drug even alcohol. I was a problem drinking and he described my behaviour to a T, nervous, anxious, irritable, erratic. They're probably tell tale signs of any addiction. That's what I'd probably be like if I quit smoking tobacco as well... which is something I really must try and do sometime...when I'm ready. Longest I managed was last time the booze landed me in hospital with seizures and a broken back. I was that sick and spaced out on withdrawal medication, that I couldn't have smoked if I tried. After 11 days they discharged me and first thing I done when I got home was light up...wish I hadn't. Ah well, maybe someday.

    The ticket checker at Walmart tonight was so stoned. I have never seen anyone try to act like they are normal when obviously they are completely tore up. My husband just ran out with the cart when he saw how stoned the guy was. I just stood there in shock. Until he handed my receipt back trying to tell me something but he couldn’t get the words out correctly. I just had to play along. Like oh sure of course your just a normal guy workin the Walmart receipt check station. It’s perfectly normal for your eyes to be all red dilated and only open by a slit. And your face to be spotty patches of red. Speech slurred. And apparently mentally confused. We all act like that. It’s all good. By the time I get to our car my husband is like did you see the ticket check guy. I’m like yah , you took off and left me to deal with it. I understand I wanted to run to. True story, Leslye
