Thank you for your drug addiction stories. Hearing what addicts go through makes the disease all the more understandable. Finding strength in others is a big part of the recovery program. When you hear of how drug addiction causes damage to so many peoples lives it really puts into perspective how powerful and all consuming the problem is. Relating to the people who have acknowledged their drug use and who are learning to live beyond the addiction is inspiring. Thanks again and keep up the good work.

It’s a little disheartening when people judge other’s from a point of no personal experience. People dont’t just get up one day and say “Hey, today I think I will throw my whole away on drugs.” Addiction doesn’t happen overnight and it is not treated overnight. Drug use is often a coping mechanism as people want someway to escape the pain. Continual use and abuse of chemicals and denial of reality, does change one’s brain chemistry. That’s why it is referred to as a disease. Neither, is that term a cop out. When I was younger, I thought just like you, until I had my own pivotal trials and tribulations. One thing I learned, is that you can live your whole life thinking you would react in a certain way under certain circumstances, but you NEVER really know what you will do until the circumstance arrives. You never know what people are really going thru and there are functioning addicts all around you: doctors, lawyers, surgeons, police officers, etc. Perhaps your thinking hasn’t yet evolved. If you really want to try to understand, try to understand it instead of simply rejecting it. Google it and read.

Absolutely agree. When the case involves teen mothers, it just emphasizes the need for teen drug rehab programs to help young men and women that the consequences of their actions go far beyond that of the individual. Keep up the good work with these super posts!!

Thanks for the post.
You sound like me; good kid is high school, Family financial trouble while in college, worked two jobs and attended school, and then began to party.

However it took me another 8 years to get into a drug treatment program.

Glad to hear the drug free euphoria hits you as well!
