I fully understand what you mean. We have to accept everyone is different and certain things from the past can cause us to use to block things out. In the AA book, what we learn is that addicts have an allergy to drink or drugs. For instance my gf has had coke or a few of my friends, they have used it once in 6 month just when they are out, but addicts like me and others it effects us differently and we want to constantly use and do things the normal person would not. I guess what I’m trying to say I understand how you feel how you feel about his behaviour and want to protect him. But it is proven now it is a disease, and effects people differently. There as a doctor that comes on a meeting I go on who was bad on it. Its such an addictive drug and lethal. Its in every town. My son has friends who sell it on Instagram with prices and pictures! It’s mental. I really feel for any kid now getting on cocaine at an early age, because it’s all down hill from there.
