In the case of addiction, there is nothing you can do to help the person.
They have to hit bottom, and realize that there is no other option but sobriety. Not everyone gets that far.
Addiction is an incurable, fatal disease.
Just because it is a disease does not make the person unaccountable for their actions though.
Speaking as a recovering drug addict with almost three years of sobriety, I can attest to the fact that no one can make you go to rehab. No one can keep you sober.
I had to lose everything I loved before I "got it".
The best thing you can do for an addict is to walk away.
Could not agree more! Congrats on almost 3 years. Got 4 years on Valentine's
