मैं ऐसे लोगों को जानती हूँ जिन्होंने क्रैक (नशीला पदार्थ) का एक कश लिया था और फिर कभी उसे हाथ नहीं लगाया। लॉस एंजिल्स में मैंने एक महिला को यह कहते सुना था कि उसने सिर्फ एक कश लिया था और उसे इतना अच्छा महसूस हुआ कि वह दोबारा उसे आजमाने से डर गई। मैं डॉक्टर तो नहीं हूँ, लेकिन मेरा मानना है कि अगर कोई व्यक्ति नशे की लत के प्रति संवेदनशील है, तो एक बार उसका सेवन करना ही उसे बर्बाद करने के for काफी हो सकता है। निश्चित रूप से मेरे साथ ऐसा ही हुआ था।
I know, and know of, people who said they have taken a hit of crack and never tried it again. I overheard one woman in LA say she took one hit and it mad her feel so good, she was afraid to try it again. I am not a doctor, but I do believe that if one is predisposed to addiction, taking one hit may be all it takes. Certainly that is how it worked out for me.

मेरा मानना है कि मैंने क्रैक का पहला कश इसलिए लिया क्योंकि मैं एक नशेड़ी हूँ, और नशेड़ी ऐसा ही करते हैं। उस समय मेरी ज़िंदगी में कुछ भी असाधारण नहीं चल रहा था—सिवाय उन सामान्य दबावों और उतार-चढ़ाव के जिनका सामना हर इंसान को करना पड़ता है। मुझे नहीं लगता था कि मुझे इसकी लत लगेगी। मुझे लगता है कि अधिकांश नशेड़ियों और शराबियों के साथ यही सच होता है। मैंने अभी तक ऐसा कोई व्यक्ति नहीं देखा है जो यह कहे कि उसने अपनी ज़िंदगी में शराब या नशे की पहली घूंट/कश यह जानते या शक करते हुए लिया था कि उसे इसकी लत लग जाएगी या वह शराबी बन जाएगा।
I believe I accepted the first hit of crack because I am an addict, and that's what addicts do. There was nothing extraordinary going on in my life at the time - nothing beyond the normal pressures and ups and downs that all people face. I did not believe I would be hooked. I think that is probably true of most addicts and alcoholics. I haven't met anyone yet who said he or she took their first hit or drink knowing or even suspecting they would drink alcoholically or become addicted.

मेरा मानना है कि मैं जन्म से ही नशे की आदी और शराबी थी। जब मैंने पहली बार शराब पी थी, तो मेरा बस यही मन था कि मुझे और ज़्यादा चाहिए। अपनी किशोरावस्था और शुरुआती 20 के दशक में मैं अक्सर शराब नहीं पीती थी, लेकिन जब भी पीती थी, पूरे जोश के साथ पीती थी। यानी, मैं हमेशा इतनी पीती थी कि पूरी तरह नशे में हो जाऊँ।
I believe I was born an addict, and alcoholic. The first time I drank alcohol, I just wanted more and more. During my teens and early 20s I did not drink often, but when I did, it was with great gusto. That is, I always drank enough to get drink.

कोई भी शराबी या नशेड़ी की तब तक मदद नहीं कर सकता जब तक कि वह खुद बेहतर होने की कोशिश करने के लिए तैयार न हो।
No one can help an alcoholic or addict until he or she is ready to try to get better.
