here we go again

So my brother has been acting weird lately and today he called me from a weird number complaining about my dad not giving him money or something…turns out the weird number was his dealers house. Long story short my dad took him for a drug test and he tested positive for pot,cocaine and opiates. He is denying using and not wanting help. My dad is going to put himin an inpatient treatment center for 21 days. I am so pissed off at my brother. He has been telling lie after lie and bullshitting all of us and its a slap in the face. At this point I don’t know what to do. So angry. Can’t wait to hit the gym in the morning. Shoulders? Prepare to die.

    I know exactly how you feel….do you have any idea how many times i have heard the words “i haven’t done anything”??? while his eyes were half closed??? it pisses me off too!

    Hang in there 🙂 Try and remember that unfortunately there is nothing you can do unless he wants help (and means it)…

    thinking of you 🙂

    I work in hospital psych units and see people in there for losing their mind to narcotics n alcohol. I have also seen my own brother go thru it! I know the dissapointment and disgust u feel first hand. I don’t know if you r a prayin girl, but I suggest you get alone with jesus and see your brother thru this in prayer. I say that like its gonna be so easy, but it is a fight for your brothers life that will be fought thru many tears. Stay strong my friend, your brother needs you!

    Denial, lies and cheating is part of the disease of drug addiction..he can’t and won’t do better unless he’s sober and makes that choice to keep “clean”….counselling and positive reinforcement works…be strong for him!

    everything is happening for a reason. Take the time to reflect on your feelings. Working it off through excersize is great but reflect too 🙂 You are doing great!
