My son also thinks he can be a moderate drinker. The AA tell him complete abstinence is the only answer. A few drinks and then it’s triggers the need for cocaine , then the cycle starts…I guess you know the pattern only too well like me.
It’s good he has a girlfriend, my son feels lonely and its difficult to meet someone while your fighting addiction never mind in a global pandemic!
I hate this evil drug that hooks you in , makes all your problems go away, but leaves a trail of devastation in its wake. And then the scumbag dealers who prey on the vulnerable like vultures.
Sorry…im just venting, I don’t know what the answer is to rid the world of this evil drug. We can only do our best though, let our kids know that they’re still loved.
Just have to do the best we can under the circumstances. I’ve got a black belt in prayer at the moment ????
Take care, keep your chin up.
