I think all you can do is be a gentle example or something. Its like if you push them you might drive em nuts or drive yourself nuts or both.
Its hard when you look back with like clear vision at your past and your think WTF was I thinking. You relize just how much of a mess you where. I dunno sometimes i'd even feel really sad and upset with myself for it. Other times I had sympathy for myself. In the end it is what it is. All we can do is move forward in many ways tho my past has been a good thing. becoming an alcoholic and getting sober has tuaght me a lot I would not have otherwised learned maybe.
Congrats on teh 6 months thats awesome!
