Hi,
I hope things are as okay as they can be. My weekend was uneventful, my son stayed in his room just coming out for the odd bit of food but no big drama. Maybe that’s the thing with heroin, it just spaces you out, so there’s no real anything.
I started reading a book on kindle yesterday, Understanding and Helping an Addict, (and keeping your sanity) by Andrew Proulx who is a recovering addict. He’s a doctor and writes a lot about addiction research.
It’s quite insightful because he explains what it’s like in the mind of an addict when they relapse. He’s big on the 12 steps and I’m starting to really see the benefit of having a sponsor they can turn to when they are falling back.
I know we’re all exhausted and sick of worrying about how this is ever going to change for the better for more than a few months.
Thinking about you all xxx
