I know this doesn’t rest in my hands alone.
It does not rest in your hands at all. NO ONE can or will stop ANYTHING until THEY want to. And they have to REALLY want to. Just going to rehab once or twice doesn’t indicate that specifically. I was in rehab with someone who was there because if he didn’t “do something” his work was going to fire him. I don’t think it was his first - I know it wasn’t his last, he was in there again while I was still in aftercare. That was 12 and a half years ago now … I just found out a couple months ago that he died, drinking.
The real kicker is he’d completely reset his life - he’d moved 6 hours away from here - HE WORKED AT A TREATMENT CENTRE - complete “success” story on the outside, but clearly there was some shit going on inside that he wasn’t talking about or dealing with.
We can’t fix other people. All we can do is be there if and when they reach out for help, and hope for the best. It’s sad, but it’s life.

What makes headlines these days boggles the mind.
I saw 3 just yesterday, and personally I thought it was the worst one so far?! But my now 14 year old son disagreed and thought it was the best one so far. Metacritic seems to agree with him too.
I don’t know, maybe I was having an off day or something. I felt like it was aimed at a slightly younger demographic than the last couple? Like, pre-teen at best? I didn’t get that feeling from the first two.
