[QUOTE="Smithmom, post: 742201, member: 23371"] Just wanted to add a welcome. My 28 year old is an addict is prison for 10 years. Why? Selling heroin, his drug of choice on the street. Too many convictions for the same thing, the points add up and mandatory sentence puts him away. Treatment in prison doesn't exist. He's in with violent sociopaths as well as every other mental health diagnosis. No treatment. No one cares. Nothing will be different when they get out. Does society care? No. Most of them don't have families who care either. I got a request from a prisoner this week to pass along a message to another prisoner's family asking them to contact prison to find their relative. Severely mentally ill he disappeared "to hospital" a mo ago and no one has seen or heard from him since. It happens. I hear you. Systems are severely flawed. [/QUOTE]
