I never shared this but I was a teenage addict and my only crime was drug possession. It started with prescription meds and escalated. Police didn& #39;t help. They beat me while handcuffed, scarred my face, and punished me for having a disease. We need to end the drug war.

Please don& #39;t judge me, it was really hard for me to share and it makes me anxious to give my haters ammo, but I realized when I lost my account today that I have to break this taboo and be comfortable talking about it, or else I may never get the chance to.
