Yes, they do have to want it.

Mine called me recently to let me know she had moved...again.

Somehow we got on the subject of counseling (I've been in counseling since last December due to a really bad slip into depression), and she mentioned that her psychiatrist might prescribe her benzodiazapines for her 'social anxiety', and that was great because she could make some good money selling those.

She talked about it just as casually as though discussing a recipe for bread or something.

There is no emotion, over the phone, or face to face, other than everything is funny to her.

I've worked with other addicts over the years and even when they are using, you can still see the pain in their eyes.

There is nothing behind her eyes, and that scares me.

No conscience, nothing.

Sigh.
