Addiction & Recovery

of getting high, crashing, and having to get high again to function.

It took for my ex, too, I'm glad to say. He wasn't a bad guy, just a drunk. He did go to meetings. I think those gave him what alcohol had, a social outlet for a misfit. He's got a few more years than you, but not many.

Don't be too hard on the guys who were ordered to go after their second DUI or whatever. Sometimes it takes a lot of education to ruin somebody's drinking before they decide they need to quit. Sometimes drinking kills them before that dawns on them.

Congratulations on having rehab take the first time.
