I used to feel exactly the same way, but I've changed all that now. I've met some really great people who, unfortunately, use drugs for whatever reasaon. They have earned my respect.
It doesn't change the fact that I am and always will be disappointed when I learn that people I admire use drugs. That's something that I don't think will ever go away. I think when people use drugs, they are wasting themselves and their potential and that is very depressing to me.
A person is always capable of achieving greater things sober than high or drunk. I have never seen any evidence to contradict this.
