Reader’s Question:
There has been a lot of discussion about Hiroko’s actions. If she was using drugs, would it be immediately noticeable? Is there any announcement expected today? Is there a possibility of her being arrested?
Considering the Situation with Hiroko
Recently, Hiroko Hirosue’s actions have become a topic of conversation. I was honestly surprised to hear reports of her being
arrested at a hospital for assault. I too wondered if there might be some involvement of drugs. However, let’s pause for a moment. In reality, whether or not drugs are involved can be quickly determined through a urine test. If there were a positive result, news of her re-arrest would likely have already circulated.
Reasons for Detention and Its Context
The reason Hiroko has been detained for over 12 hours could be because she has left her agency to operate independently. Typically, for regular celebrities, their agency would arrange for a lawyer and they would be released promptly, but she is facing this situation alone. Considering her circumstances, it’s understandable that she might be in a state of panic. What’s important here is that her behavior may likely stem from a “manic state” rather than being under the influence of drugs. A manic state is one of the symptoms of bipolar disorder, and often the individual is not aware of their condition. Those around them may struggle to understand why they are acting in a certain way.
Mental Illness and Its Signs
This case illustrates the signs of mental illness. It seems she may not necessarily be under the influence of drugs but could be in a state that requires help. Without understanding from those around her, she could become increasingly unwell. I have also experienced moments when a friend was mentally unstable, and I was unsure of how to interact with them. There were times when I failed to recognize their SOS hidden within casual conversations. In conclusion, while Hiroko’s actions may seem abnormal, it would be simplistic to hastily label them as drug use. What she needs right now is treatment and support, not punishment. We should approach individuals in similar situations with greater understanding and compassion. Finally, I would love to hear about your similar experiences or how you might have helped a friend in need. I hope we can create a space for mutual learning.
