its nice to know you guys would stick around for your friends.
i dont have those kind of friends in my life
ive been struggling with drug addictions off and on for the past 5 years and recently (3 months ago) i had another downward spiral and literally all my friends but 2 collectively decided that instead of talking to me, asking whats up, or even trying to offer me help, they just left and refused to answer any of my calls or texts or anything.
one of my friends thinks that she deserves a ****ing cookie because she apparently "stuck around" longer than she would for anyone else. and whats makes it worse is that they told other people to stay away from me so now everyone in our group of friends sees me as some drug addict who nobody needs to be involved with
its not like i was being irrational or crazy or dragging them down. I would disappear for a couple of days and then come back. everyone just assumed i was working. Every time they saw me, i was sober. literally no one knew i had a drug problem until my roommate said something to them and then all of a sudden i was that one friend who no one wanted to be involved with.
no one even bothered to question what caused the relapse.
but its fine, i was able to bring myself out of it without anyone's help, and get help for myself. it just sucks be dragged down by demons and having to find a way to save yourself while all your friends watch and do nothing. So if any of yor friends are struggling with an issue that's becoming out of their control, please step in and help them and dont just disappear from their life or shun them because those disgusting actions could make their suffering worse
