All way thinking

Here it is again 1 more month of missing and wishing I could turn back the hands of time. I know I can't but reading how drugs has a hold on so many people it is hard to believe. So many people who I have become friends with at this forum fighting to get free. Then the parents and loved ones all ways on pins and needles not knowing what is nexted in their addicts life.Allways asking them selfs what should I do and their is nothing they can do because it is up to the addict to decided if they want to stop. It is not fair but who said life is fair. I think everyday that Jason died because of a drug what was he thinking. The answer will not come I know this but still think about it. On the 19th he will be gone 7 months when I look at his picture I can't believe my son is dead.
To all my friends here just be glad your loved one is still living even if it is recovery or active but losing them to death is hell.
I still pray all things will end with happeness for all of you at SR.
Your friend,
Maggie

Sending you many, many hugs and prayers!

When I loved my DOC, I didn't care much about what I was doing to anyone else, addictions are very selfish.

Lots of healing thoughts going out for you.

Thank you for being here with us Maggie.

I borrow strength from your courage.

I am sorry you lost Jason and sorry for the grief you have to endure.
