 Drug abuse
I'm over it, I've got this lesson, I'm ready to move on. Enough already.

What do I have to do to learn the lesson and move on? I know when we need to learn a lesson, the problem will show up everywhere and when you learn the lesson from it, it's only then that we can move on. Enough is enough.

Drug abuse is showing up everywhere, I'm not judging the people that are on drugs, I'm understanding that everyone has their own Journey but this is ridiculous. I have my son that keeps going back and forth with this and then theres Lexi that is dying because of years with abuse and my hairdresser just flipped out and left her children because drugs are more powerful then the love she has for her children, and everyday I hear about just one more person struggling with drug abuse and I want to scream. I'm over it, I'm over it, STOP

as a former addict i kinda see where your coming from. ive been clean for a few years now and its hard to turn the corner without having it pushed in your face. i hear about guys i know dying from it, people i love doing it. its everywhere. that shit is the devil, takes good people and eats them alive. but as someone who used to do it.... i made my choice to use, its a choice. and it tore my life apart. youve gotta WANT to change that. i had to want to clean up with every ounce of my being, more. before i could get thru it.

kmalbro, I'm not sure what the lesson is, I have learned however that there is a lesson in everything we experience.
Today I have thought about why so many drug abusers have been put in my path, I have had a whole lifetime of dealing with it. I have been concerned, caring and compassionate.
I guess is what I was asking is why?
Today I may have answered that question myself. It has to do with MY MISSION. I'm thinking I can help other parents deal with what I have gone thru due to the fact I have lived it.
I have said I'm in search of something I can do to be bigger then myself. Maybe this is why I have had so much of this in my life. To come up with some answers by going through it myself. I am learning how to not let it destroy me.

Cassidy- I'm happy to hear you came out on the other side of drug abuse. You are right it is a choice and my Son knows it, he also knows how powerful drugs are and somehow he needs to learn how to be stronger.
My son will be the first to tell you that shit is the devil.
What made you turn it around?

I agree!!!
Drugs are overrated.
If only they could realize, being sober, would be a High for them.
A clear mind is a terrible thing to waste.
Peace.

i've read a lot of your posts and this one is exactly where i'm at right now in my life. i know more people on drugs than sober (this isn't true, but sometimes it seems like it bc it takes more energy to deal with druggies than your sober friends) anyways, i'm amazed by the fact that you are taking your experience and turning it into an inspiration for helping others. God is definitely working through you.
the questions you asked about my blog...when he moved away, he realized the amount of pills he was taking was HUGE, but i don't think he ever saw it was wrong...just too much at once. he readily admits he is on pills...just not the quantity or which ones. he talks about getting help, and you feel sorry for him and do whatever he asks, then he leaves and you realize your items are missing and he'll be gone for a few days. my heart is breaking. how can i just stand by and watch him kill himself?
