You might not even believe that it could happen except that it happens every day. People will take a toxic substance into their body for the brief good feeling it gives them, but there is a risk of death. Some people will die, from heroin, cocaine, Ecstasy, alcohol intoxication, prescription drug abuse. The body can tolerate an amazing amount of abuse but sometimes there is a weakness in the body or sometimes the drug is stronger than a person knows. Sometimes an adulterant will complicate things. Or maybe the person keeps using so much of the drug, like alcohol, that the body just gets sicker and sicker until it dies. These are people who need help with wanting to live.
