Moment of Peace
Hey, how the hell have you been????
Hug
you sound like a very caring person.Don't forget to take care of yourself.I have a 19yr old son who is an addict.He just relapsed and has been using ever since and I'm just so disappointed he was doing so well.Do you have any advise for me to handle this.He just went to a suboxone doctor seeing this worked the last time once he ran out and got depressed he used (I guess)I just want to understand but just can't seem to figure it out.
Hug
Hugs to you my friend. I hope you are doing ok. Miss you !
Hug
I don’t want any of you to feel as though I’m just leaving without saying anything as to the reason why I feel I must leave DS. As many of you have probably heard by now, if you google your user name EVERYTHING, journal entries, profile, etc. is there for everyone to see. I don’t feel this is right and I don’t feel as though what I message my friends should be made public. So, as much as I’m going to miss you all, I feel it in my best interest to leave DS. I’m really going to miss you all. Sparrow
