I have a friend who used to have a drug problem. He ended the drugs and began drinking to replace the habit.

I listened to him over the years and found out recently that he had been doing the drugs off and on when he wanted to. Along with drinking.

He decided to stop living this way and went thru detox and rehab. He is off of any drug except for the one that stops the craving for alcohol and Zoloft.

I found that I didn't interject myself immediately into the recovery process. I left him to his own choices. He is doing well.

I also don't want to be that person for him.

His recover is his and only his. He has stuck with it while rebuilding his life a little more each day.

It's a good feeling that I keep myself in check now. Learning so much over the years but the most from SR. From people who have been thru it, sharing themselves here helping each of us. It truly is a blessing.
