Question by yellowjello64: Trouble writing email to girlfriend? Please help?
My girlfriend is good friends with one of my closest friends. (We are in high school, freshmen.) We have been seeing each other for the past 11 months, and things are going great. I really love her. Recently, I found out from our mutual friend that she told him that her parents found something bad in her room (he didn’t know what) and she had to start going to therapy (or something). We never run in to each other, so I haven’t heard from her since Saturday. We normally just email each other, not much of a phone person. I want to find out what it is that she had and see if she is doing okay, I think she is depressed, she told me that she is an alcoholic. I feel awful because I never asked her to see if that was going okay. Here is what I’ve got so far, please help me wrap it up: “Hey (her name), I’m sorry if I seem intrusive, but Harrison told me that recently your parents found something bad in your room. Has everything been going okay?”. I feel like I need to say something else.
And her facebook status was “Ms.x might be leaving…maybe.” Could she be moving? Please give your thoughts, sorry that this is so long.

Question by Shabu Shabu: Do I have to be in Drug Counselling my whole life?
45 years ago my dad let me take a sip of his beer. About 8 years ago the government found out.

I have been in Court-Ordered Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous classes ever since. I’ve never tried drugs, and have not had beer since that incident in the 1960’s! I’m a coffee drinker and a book worm. Alcohol makes you stupid and I never drank it.

These classes are really annoying. I have to take 24 hours of classes a week. Three for each, three times a week, and half-time on weekends. Everything I do, I am accused of “relapsing” and getting put back in a hospital or jail! My “sponsor” is a crack-head and thinks anytime I do ANYTHING it’s because of my “addiction” or my “disease”.
