Thinking of everyone on here as we face another new year. Bump, you have to put yourself and the other people in your family first.

Another book that’s worth a read is Understanding and Helping an Addict (and keeping your sanity), it’s written by a doctor who had a problem with drugs so he sees it both ways. Written by Andrew Proulx. It cost around £3 on kindle but is brilliant.

I know how overwhelming this is and that the crazy person who is off his head isn’t the person you know and love but he’s still in there somewhere. Until he’s ready to listen there isn’t much you can do. Keeping your family on track so that he can see something that he can’t destroy, that’s stronger than he is, will probably help him the most in the long run.

I’m thinking about you x

Sorry this is disjointed, my phone screen is playing up.
