Is It Too Soon, Again?
Question by EB in CT: Is it too soon, again?
I met my first husband when I was 19. Married when I was 23. After 8 years of marriage, 12 years together, we separated and eventually divorced 08/2001. I met my second husband really soon. He was only the second man I dated after my first husband. After two years of dating, we married. Four years later, we are separated and I have filed for divorce. Each circumstance of divorce for each marriage was nothing I could control. My first marriage ended due to a very traumatic situation that happened in our family. In my second marriage, my husband turned to drugs and is presently in a drug rehab center.
I am now dating again. It is only the second man I have dated after my second husband. My friends and family are telling me it is too soon. That I am making the same mistake I made after my first marriage. I have not given myself a chance to heal or get to know MYSELF. How do I know when the time is right? I don’t feel I NEED a man in my life to complete me. HELP.

Addiction Counseling Treatment (ACT)?
Question by Touchdown: addiction counseling treatment (ACT)?
First…..you mess up and get a DUI. The ACT counselor may want further classes/sessions depending on the quiz that was filled out. If your father, who you haven’t seen since 13, has a history of drug and alcohol abuse in his youth will you really need more classes? Even though staying away from alcohol for 8 months? I’m expecting she’s just play the “denial” card and go down that path. How can you deny denial? Aside from actions. A DUI is a traffic violation. The cycle of counselors making efforts to make a buck here and there is relentless. They make their own return customers by failing them. I understand, some need help. But crap man. I guess I’m just a little apprehensive of the whole extortion game. Any advise?

So Drug Use From My Group of Friends Has Pretty Much Screwed My Social Life…?
Question by crackerjacks12: so drug use from my group of friends has pretty much screwed my social life…?
Well im in kind of a shi**y situation where my group of friends who I have hung out with since i was kid (im now 20) have let their drug use get the best of them… I have done drugs in the past but I had the brains to get out of it while I could and I have not done any drugs other then tobacco and alcohol in 3 years… Well, its gotten to the point where they have moved on to hard drugs, and all they care about is getting high, and its gotten to the point for me that I can not even hang with them because I can not stand seeing them like that. I hated to leave my old group of friends behind, but i knew that I needed to. I eventually did make a new set of friends who were clean and the good majority of them had never even touched a drug. After a while though it went right back into the same routine for me because out of nowhere they began using drugs too.
Im just sick of this crap because I have lost too many people who are close to me… Some of my friends have died from drugs, some are in prison because of drugs, I have lost relationships because of drugs, and the rest are just wasting their lives away because of drugs. I really do not know what too move onto, because it seems to me that every time I get accepted into a new group of people, they all end up being your typical crack head…. im just really starting to believe that The entire youth of northern Illinois is completely screwed. I really need answers on what I can do, and how I can move on, because it seems every time I make progress in disassociating myself with drugs, it somehow finds its way back into the lives of my friends and my social life
