[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 627569, member: 15801"] I think it is great to recognize this is your issue... and you clearly have some strong judgements about drug use. I understand that but I think it is getting in your way. I think people do all kinds of things and experiment with things when they are young and it does not necessarily predict their future... it is part of finding out who you are and where you stand. I did a lot of things when I was young, that I dont approve of now and dont really want my kids doing (and some drug experiementation was one fo them) and yet I dont regret doing them or feel any shame about them. It was part of my process of growing up. I dont see drug use as a moral issue and I think you do. I definitely see drug addiction as a huge problem in this country and I have come to hate drugs and what they do to some people. However I dont see people who have used drugs as bad or immoral in any way. And many many people (myself included) can experiment or use some drugs casually without them every becoming a problem. The problem we have is that some people really cant do that and become addicted... and of course there are some drugs that in themselves are very very addictive. I really think you need to stop yourself from these images in your head. And maybe look into (via therapy maybe) as to why this is such a huge issue for you. It sounds like your girlfriend recognized her problem drinking and stopped that.... that is a key factor I think. TL Sent using ConductDisorders mobile app [/QUOTE]
