Is it normal i kind if losing my sympathy for addicts

Mother's a pill popper her veins are so rotted from melting down & injecting them that her left leg is starting to rot as well, I quit caring after I saved her the last time she overdosed with CPR (one of her eyes exploding during the process) & she went right back to doing them when she got out of the ER (where she almost died 6 times in 2 days)

I really can relate. My stepdad was an alcoholic, and living with him was a nightmare. It gets so enraging and frustrating, you just want to leave. Especially when they do nothing to get help. My stepdad finally went to AA after my sister and I moved out, and my mother left him for a while. The resentment still persisted through.

I have no sympathy for them and never will.
They sit around and make a mess and they have no respect.
We had an influx of those human parasites last summer in my neighbourhood,
they sat on the parking lot outside all summer and some of them drove, most likely not sober but can't prove that really, and there's kids everywhere here. One of them had a total fit and crashed into multiple cars while trying to back out of his spot, the police came and luckily one neighbour filmed the whole incident. Some people have also reported finding needles in bushes which is dangerous because kids play everywhere here but those parasites just toss their disgusting needles everywhere and they also beat up an elderly man in broad daylight.
So yeah, no sympathy and I don't think they deserve it unless they genuienly want to get out of it or at least don't act like jackasses threatning others, throwing needles and driving under the influence.

I'm an ex addict, dude. I can understand why you don't have sympathy for them. I have sympathy for the ones who are in so deep that their addiction is a full time job, but you allude to something that's true. Addicts can be functional members of society with jobs; many of them just prefer not to.

I lost sympathy for drug addicts a while back. I've had cousins, coworkers, and friends who did heavy drugs. They acted like the world owed them and they refused to work any kind of job. They leeched off their parents or anyone they could find. Some of them went on to have kids, but never took care of them. Shit like that is why I don't drink, smoke weed, or take any kind of drug. If it's going to turn me into a deadbeat, I'll happily pass.

If they're working everyday and are productive I dont care. But if they wont work and wont take a job I feel little pity on them.

I guess I would question the environment these folks grew up in first. Deadbeat parents usually make deadbeat kids. Also, the peers they hung out with at a young age. If you want to be more than a loser, you have to have more than an inner drive. You also need to work to cultivate relationships with people going places. At least that is what I have observed from those around me. If they're unwilling to change though, there is little you can do. Also, I'd talk to a professional instead of trying to dull your pain with alcohol. That will not lead you to any place good. Good luck.

While you have legitimate points you are almost certainly an insufferable jackass.

I feel like this also goes for people that aren't necessarily addicted to a substance. anyone who is unwilling to be a functioning member of society and escapes their problems with something, whether its gaming, anime, or porn. It's depressing, and I can't fault them too much either. People who end up like that are usually people that are mentally unwell. I've smoked and drank alcohol but never have I been addicted. And the reason why is simple: i never need it. Its a luxery. Same with gaming, which I rarely partake in. It's never a coping mechanism. And for such a feeble thing to be a coping mechanism, there must be very little that life brings to the table. Theres no point getting pissed off at em. Just live your life, and hopefully they realise one day they need to get their act together.
