No addict was ever scared, threatened or loved into seeking treatment. They just have to decide they are done. That is what one of my friends in recovery told me. I believe her.
eveewonder,
This is going in the SR quote book.
It was certainly true for me.

Baloo,

I don't know what to do sometimes.
There really is nothing, you can do, nothing.
Yes, you could do this and that and this and that.
But in the end, it would change nothing.
We are powerless. Powerless.

I think that is why you do not know what to do, because there is nothing.
Even if you did all you said, there is still her and the dope.
Always and forever the dope.

Someone very close to me was sexually abused by a drug abusing old man,
Used drugs to mess her up and used her.
I think a lot about what I could do, and what I wish I could do, but I am powerless.
Karma got him good.
The end of that.

In the end, we can only save ourselves.
Take care of you Baloo.
You are doing pretty good with that now.
Keep it up.

Beth
