I’ve softened on that a little because I’m ****ed up too and working in a hot ass kitchen you see some amazing **** good and bad. Still though it’s a red flag. Too much pain.

I reached that point too. Then my brother made a huge turn around and it made me realize people can do it. He had an incredible amount of emotional and financial support from my parents though. Not sure if he would have been able to do it without them. Still, I know where you're coming from. Keeping distance is fine but I still care about my junkie friends.
