It’s a shame.

A friend of mine recently announced that she was going to place herself into drug rehab. I know she’s been on kind of a downward spiral for a few months now but when you go to college and don’t know how to deal with things and are surrounded by drugs and booze it makes it difficult for you to stear away from it when you’ve never really been able to stand your ground. She’s always been easily influenced, something she openly admits to. It’s hard for her to not get addicted to things because she’s under the assumption that things can’t effect her no matter what she does. After almost over dosing on cocain a few weeks ago, she decided to check herself into a clinic. Being as she’s only 18, she realizes that she does have the rest of her life ahead of her and needs to move away from everything that’s a bad influence on her.

I’ve recommended StopYourAddiction.com to her, it’s a brand new 28 day drug treatment program located in Michigan. They treat addicts from across the country and I hope that no matter which place she happens to go – she gets the help she desperately needs.
