Question by Melanie: please help what should i do about my boyfriend who does painkillers?
hes my best friend, my first real boyfriend, i love him so much. weve been best friends since i was like 10 (im 18, hes 17 now) and hes always been involved with drugs. the past few months weve both done some pills occasionally but hes taking it too far lately wanting to do it evevryday even when he knows i want it to stop. i know hes not actualy addicted but i dnt want to be involved with this anymore. ive told him all of this and he says he doesnt HAVE to do them but i know he wants to and ive been trying to act okay with it for a while so he doesnt resort to sneaking around behind my back to do it. i really love him and cant imagine being without him but what should i do 🙁    Read more...

Question by Loitsiva: Mother is insane; lies all the time, shopping addiction, needs help! Intervention?
WARNING – This is a LOT of information, I’m just desperate for advice. It’s hurting a lot.

A little background… My mom and I used to be really close. Like, sisters, best friends, almost. Up until the last year.

She was caught stealing at a department store and was thrown in jail. This was her.. 3rd or 4th offense. (I was only aware of 1 other one..) She was really embarrassed and it seems things went downhill from there. She had also just gotten dentures (she’s only 50) and I know that messed with her self esteem.

Because of the offenses she’s having a hard time finding a job, obviously. She hasn’t worked in 8 months now.    Read more...
