Regarding dealing with difficult problems:

"Like almost all problems in life you have only 4 options: #1 Change you (accept what you are unable to change)

#2 Change the other (convince them to follow your vision)

#3 Fly (divorce, quit)

#4 Stay and suffer (include drinking, doing drugs, whining)

It is amazing how many people chose number 4."

I'd file "doing drugs" under #1, at least if you choose the right ones.
Experiencing enough of #1 or #4 eventually makes them indistinguishable.
