I will never relate to feeling of wanting to be numb all the time. I guess I have no compassion.........My ex wasn't raised in an addictive environment so I don't get it. He is living in his car, weighs about 100 pounds soaking wet, has no income, no job, no friends and no family. I cry every night for him but he is fine with his choices. When he wants a warm, safe place to crash, he does try to come here but I haven't been allowing it. It is too hard to see and expose to the children.
Will addicts and codies ever understand each other?
