That's fair. I didn't mean to imply anything about the drug use.
The way OP views the world reminds me of how I see things when I am experiencing certain depression symptoms. I tend to filter my view of the world so that only the negative things are true, and it makes it harder to do anything positive in my life.
When my symptoms let up, either through treatment or sometimes on their own, I can still see the negatives but they're there with a lot of positives, too.
If OP does have depression, it's possible that treating it in a more effective way would be the answer to their question.
