I don’t think any worse of Jordan because he became dependent on benzodiazepines. I have nothing but empathy In that regard. It’s hell on earth and is quietly becoming an epidemic that will have to be addressed in the near future.

No, my problem lies with how little personal responsibility he has taken for it. He is an informed, intelligent, pragmatic, educated human being. To claim he didn’t know they would be addictive or that they weren’t for long term use is absurd. Especially considering what his field was.

I know of the stress he was under and nearly losing his wife is something I can only hope I never have to go through. It just doesn’t seem like he has been honest with himself and his fans.

Personal responsibility.
