Wow, sweaty palms, eh? I'm not sure if that's supposed to be a good thing to induce in others, but I'm just going to pretend it is unless I hear otherwise ;P

Thank you dear. I appreciate the hugs and support, especially for someone that, for all intents and purposes, is still an internet stranger on the other side of the world. The warmth is appreciated.
Aaa... I don't have an addict in my family ... only my cousin that needs pills to be happy (she and her mom have clinical depression) and in contrast with my aunt she is not so serious so she is trying to get over her addiction... well anyway that's not what I wanted to say
( ... )
al-anon and nar-anon meetings i'd been to all suggested that the addict sometimes needs to hit rock bottom before they can begin to climb out. it's a shame that such substances exist but we have to make extra certain to not enable them or allow them to manipulate us. sometimes you've done all you can and you have to survive no matter what they do or what happens to them.
i felt like i was flying through the trees like inuyasha was. nice descriptions. =)
Yeah, the situation is tricky - my sister is very manipulative (also borderline personality disorder) and both my mom and I are very easily manipulated. Great combo, no? I know I've enabled her before. It's been a couple years though since she's been 'clean'. She never really hit rock bottom but cleaned up when she got pregnant so we thought that WAS her rock bottom, realizing that there was more to life, but now if her child isn't enough to keep her clean? It's just a harsh realization when you know there's nothing you can do but watch and hold her hand if/when she ever reaches out. It wouldn't be nearly so hard to cope with the idea of her going back into it if she didn't have a kid, but who knows, maybe she'll still wake up one day and see her daughter is learning from what she's doing. One can hope, at least.
As for the story, I'm glad you like the little snippet. Thanks.
