Heroin addiction has ruined so many lives, of those who had partners at the time, and many others, and the initial reasons to try heroin are numerous. Regarding her depression, my personal view is that this was related to more than just the selfish men in her life. For example, she was never really accepted in her home town, which was very sad for her. This is discussed frequently, but here's a reference: https://www.vintag.es/2021/08/joplin-high-school-reunion.html

Some of those same kids once called Janis a pig and a weirdo and threw pennies at her, teasing her about everything from her weight to her acne to her outspokenness about civil rights. Many of them never left Port Arthur, so 10 years hadn’t brought many changes.

These are just personal opinions - nothing more. (Also, discussions with Popper are not debates. EG: am I debating his reference, 'butter face'? No.)

popper's theory is way more evidence based and simple than yours. you don't even have a theory. he's right and you are wrong.
