she did say she wasn’t sure what to do as her son was grown up. all that said, surely people should be more aware and tolerant of medical issues and disabilities? recreational drug use really is a red herring here. it seems clear enough he was a decent chap who turned to drugs as a way of coping with prejudice against those with serious medical problems as “not good enough a person”.
The main issue is people he thought would support him have clearly turned their back on him because of his illness, that could drive a lot of people to suicide.
TBH I suspect if anything being friendly with the girl involved in the fatal RTC (herself a drug user with mental problems) where the young boy was killed might well have been what pushed him over the edge out of guilt, and that could have happened to anybody even if they weren’t ill.
