This is what lead us to the label high functioning addict...never stole, self supportive business owner..... But, the frequency of legal troubles are increasing. He needs to have someone help him channel his "smarts" and correct those behaviors. Does anyone have experience with high functioning addicts? Any successful tools to share? Any recovery centers you'd suggest? He is open to help but easily discouraged unfortunately.
