Hunter Biden's surprisingly simple answer as to "why I used"
From his Substack:
People ask why I used. The honest answer nobody wants to hear is, because it worked. At first it did exactly what it was supposed to do. It quieted a fear I had carried since I was a kid. Then it became the answer to everything, until it was the only thing left.
Surprisingly high number of supportive replies...

1. My friends who use and the now former users all said because it felt good.
Which is what Biden is saying. It worked because it made him feel better/good. When you're in pain or going through some other stressful event, you could easily turn to what makes you feel better (food, sex, booze, drugs, other). Some people do.
I've been friends with a woman 43 years who only stopped using a few years ago. Love her to death.
I was in love with a man (a long time ago) who started using and it ruined our relationship - bitterly so.

23. He had a pretty overwhelming trauma as a very young child.
That's got to make the world feel VERY unsafe.

If you think Hunter had it bad, you should read what happened to his sister Ashley.

Refresh my memory, Ashley was the daughter he would jump in the shower with correct?

1. It quieted a fear I had carried since I was a kid sounds less stupid than, I was stupid and could get away with it.
2. Does anyone fully believe his usage of past tense?
