Things That Suck Like A Porn Star

fucking disgusting

[Section 40]

Spending Christmas + New Years in a lock down rehab qualifies as something that sucks. Getting there via an intervention sucks as well. It will be quite interesting to see my brother in law when he gets out.

Opiates?

booze.
He was at at famly party this summer and he "tripped" and "fell" flat on his face. He had two beers in the hour and a half that he was at the party so nobody thought he was tanked because he's got a myriad of medical woes that contribute to his inability to walk steadily. They took blood at the hospital and he was .43 amd it was a blood test so there was no disputing it.... he's been denying/making excuses/blaming others ever since and it came to a head a few weeks back. I've never known anyone that has gone through this process so I'm not sure what to expect....

shouldn't that two beers be in quotations?

[Section 40]

From what I understand he did only have two beers.... it was the gallon of vodka that he apparently drank before he got there that was the problem.... no shit.

[B Luc]

wow...

Also, I know a few people who've gone to rehab and each one has relapsed. Mainly because they didn't change their lifestyle when they got out.

[Section 40]

His going to rehab was not of his own doing.
If it weren't for the intervention (right down to the Dr from the rehab facility being on site) he would not have gone because he doesn't have a problem (in his opinion).
They put him on a plane and he went, the rehab is 30 days though.... whether it takes or not is entirely up to him I believe but the nature of his business and the people who were there for the intervention would make it hard for him to resume his old lifestyle if only because they were the ones who were there to say that he needed help.

[BS1]

holy christ...

.43 is death, no?

[Section 40]

I believe you can be operated on without anesthetic under those circumstances.... yet he had driven his car over to the party (and gotten lost, which should have been a hint).

[lugnutz]

That is insane........and I dont care how good any program is, change has to come from within or it wont take hold.

[rearadmiral]

Expect a relapse. They're normal for anyone going to get themselves fixed (or, as the cultist lingo says, "in recovery"). But particularly with people in denial.

Good luck to the person.

Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas. What a fucking asshole this guy was.
