The drugs you listed definitely have amazing recovery potentialities I don’t think that there’s any reason for you to believe that you will always be scarred by them

I didn’t but that’s just me. Everyone is different. Some psychosis only last until the drug leaves your system, I still had psychosis 7 months after stopping.

One time they told us in drug and alcohol treatment that “Once an addiction to a drug or alcohol becomes the entire focus of a person’s life, that person can recover only if staying off the addictive substance becomes the entire focus of their life.”
I believe drugs damaged my brain structure self-inflicted damage
sad really
I gave up drugs 20 years ago
Be proud of yourself, though. Overcoming an addiction is very difficult.

In my opinion any drug can permanently alter the brain. Maybe im wrong. Its just the way i see it.

drugs I did was e tablets, weed, solvent abuse
Can you recover? I really dont know. Suppose it comes down to changing your outlook on life - and avoiding those groups of people that associate with drugs.
Booze is my demon. It gets me most months. But weed i can take it or leave it.
For me personally - ive seen people go downhill on drugs like crack, and yet they still lack the insight to admit they have got a problem. Seeing that - it puts me off Class A Drugs.

Alcohol does far more damage than weed.

I’ve done a lot of drugs and I do think you can recover.
Not everyone does,
And it takes a lot of time,
But you absolutely can.

Oh my God. That’s one you can’t come back from. Chronic solvent abuse causes progressive and permanent neurological injury - literally the death of brain matter.
I know, as I said I did foolish wrong things in my teens with false friends, one false is still on
heroin now
IMO everything I did wrong in life I paid for it
Yes, recovery is possible but it may take some time.
I finally got over the trauma I received from using mescaline in college at a frat party.
I was messed up psychologically from that bad trip for years.
