zhī chí支持jiǎn shǎo减少shāng hài伤害：wǒ men我们yīng gāi应该zěn yàng怎样bāng zhù帮助chéng yǐn zhě成瘾者
Society often debates what the best way is to deal with people who have addiction.
One view is that drug use must stop completely; another is “harm reduction”: if a person cannot stop right now, we should first help them stay alive and be safer.
Harm reduction does not mean supporting addiction; it means believing that everyone deserves care.
Many people become addicted not only because of physical reasons, but also because of pain, loneliness, stress, and poverty.
Providing clean needles, safe places to use drugs, or medicines that help with treatment can reduce the risk of death and illness.
Some people say this will make drug use more likely, but that is not true.
What often leads people to start using drugs is despair and trauma, not the availability of safer tools.
Only when people are still alive do they have a chance to change.
Harm reduction is not lowering standards; it is first protecting life, giving people hope, and keeping open the possibility of recovery.
