I have seen some other people recommending the documentary series on Amazon prime about addictions so I have started watching that to see if I can learn anymore about this illness. I have never before considered the fact that this is a lifelong thing I thought people could get through it but it seems like it’s a constant battle that they have to work really hard to beat every day . I’ve also seen on some of the other posts on here some of the people in recovery are talking about how people need to find some hobbies. I wonder if your son has any hobbies or if there are any he could get in to that could help pass the time while he is bored without a job. I am going to be trying to figure out with my husband if there is anything he would like to be doing that could keep him busy and distracted in his spare time as he has had a few good days.
