It is truly sad,I have lost many friends to addiction. Hard to see pain threw the masks we wear.
It still amazes me that you can not judge if someone is happy or content by what you see on the outside. Self medicating for mental illness is a serious problem i think b/c of the stigma that goes with mental illness and addiction! Cunning, baffling and powerful! It reminds me that i need to work my program EVERY DAY!
Ugh, I agree. Peeps in the meeting even shared about him tonight. And how cunning and devious addiction is.
I was so sad when I read about Robin Williams. We've lost another great person to that monkey on the back called addiction. So many lost, especially in the last few years, or at least it seems like we've lost a lot more than usual :-(
