My qualifier for the Nar-Anon program is my adult
daughter. By the grace of God, she is clean for
3 + years now. She began using drugs and alcohol
at the age of 15. As the disease progressed her
need for bigger highes led her to crystal meth (speed).
My sister and her husband have abused prescription
drugs for many years. Their lives today are much the
same as it was 30 years ago..... They fly from one
crisis to the next, their lives are unmanageable at
times, but they have still not reached their bottom.
I have one nephew, who is an active alcoholic......
I have another nephew who smokes pot on a daily
basis.......
My youngest son is an active alcoholic........
The most difficult addiction to beat is the one they
have at this moment. They will not change until they
become willing, until it is becomes the most important
thing in their lives. They have to want it and believe
that with the help of God they can beat the addiction.
AA and NA is filled with winners, they have a sincere
desire to stop drugging/drinking for one day at a time.
Each day is a new beginning!
The Nar-Anon program has allowed me to find peace.
It's allowed me to love my family, dispite their addictions.
It gives me hope, that God has a plan for each of them,
and my job is to step back and allow HIS plan to unfold.
I pray for all the addicts out there and I pray for all of
you that have love them. Don't give up on them! Keep
the faith! ....and don't give up before the miracle!
Hugs and Prayers to each of you..... ~SG~
