so, we can identify with what he is facing.
With cocaine and alcohol, there is the added dimensions of physical addiction, the expense, the illegality...but each of us knows what he's facing...the cravings, the needing to find new ways of coping, the stigma, the self-hatred, the shame, the slips and do-overssssssssssssssssss, the associated health problems....all of it.
And, those of us who are smart knows that the journey really is ODAT or even one minute at a time.
This has to be so hard to hear but, like the others said, it is fantastic that he has come out with it all. You all are in my prayers.
