So do I let her know that I'm there for her when she decides that she wants to quit? Or do I just leave her alone all together? It's a paradox when you're emotionally invested isn't it? I know addiction can take anyone, kinda like a virus...there's no discrimination...I mean, I'm 28 and yeah I'm addicted to nicotine, as light of an addiction/or socially acceptable addiction as it is. It doesn't really compare to H. I went back to college and I work for a shipping company p/t. She's going to be 34, has her Master's degree, and teaches children with special needs (Autistic children). She's worked so hard...a rational person would turn down drugs especially since drug use on her exhusband's part ruined her last marriage.
