[QUOTE="slsh, post: 315201, member: 8"] Steely, based on convos with- thank you, moving forward, pursuing happiness, taking control of his life is simply much too much work for him. It overwhelms him and seems to be an impossible task. The disordered thought processes he has really shine through when we talk about him getting a life. It is just too hard for him and he therefore refuses to try. Even when we break a goal down into the simplest of steps - nope, not going to happen. If it doesn't happen instantly, then it's just "too hard" and not worth it to him. Drugs are an easy out. Much better than medication (because that also requires "work" - dr. appts, rxs, copays, insurance cards, etc.). He can feel "good" with no effort. And of course he doesn't get to feel as good on prescription medications. Street drugs, he can just be oblivious which is apparently his preferred state these days. It's a very difficult mindset to work with. [/QUOTE]
