To any of you out there trying to help your brothers and sisters friends and pals with addictions . The only way you can do this is first tell them they are living in it and may not see it, and you as what ever you are to them are seeing them rip themselves apart. But reality check from an experianced abuser is that until the abuser wants to stop abuse themselfs there is nothing in the whole wide world that you can do or offer until that person hits rock bottom and says I AM AN ADDICT OF (WHAT EVER IT MAYBE)You can not help! Some of you are whatching other people like your neices and nephews That are completely inocent and should not have to see that.Be draged up and down and if you gave any kinda of a care to the incocent people involed you would report the abuser and at least give the innocent a chance. It is important that you be there when the abuser comes to reality and admits to their addiction. It is important that you keep in touch with the innicent that may have been taken away from there home. But also important that you keep contact between the abuser and the innocet seperate. This may cause problems for the family that has decied to help this innocent child involed.There are tons of support groups and web sites and the best kind of help out there but until the addicted want to help them selfs there is not much you can do. There was afew people i saw who where dealing with adh, and other behavior problems and be aware that mental illness and drug addiction are not the same thing but have simlar effects some people would say that drug addiction is an illness but it is not do to chemical imbalance at birth. It has not been proven yet. adh and other mental illness espeailly in children have been succsessfully decraesed with massage therapy, crainal sacral thearpy, tissue memory therepy and even going as far into communicating with the human cells. This can also be very affective with recovering addicts but much more trama to adults then children. look up any of these subjects on the internet and you can even find the results of people who have tried it any way peace and love to all of you. and if you got some questions let me know.
