Addictions, dépression, automutilation : Meta paie pour éviter le procès qui aurait tout changé

It’s not important

It is difficult to imagine what wonderful changes would occur to human lives if people would stop poisoning themselves with brandy, wine, tobacco and drugs. […] Some people say, “It is not important if you drink or smoke.” If it is of no importance, then why not just stop, if you know that you harm yourself and, with your example, others?

3. Words like #DigitalAutonomy usually RELY ON OTHERS to do it *for themselves* and aside from a few changes I don't know you can help others to manage their own #life or #undo #addictions or do the #betterpractices stuff other than give them time to catch on to it and a few #tips or #handholding posts / principles etc.

How could you speed up just general tips or convert them on to somethign else?
