This is so sad... he wanted help but yet, most the "help" programs were not what was needed. My grandson has been spiraling downwards past 2 yrs after more than 10 yrs of alcohol addiction with mental health issues. Not a single counselor or gov't agency will try to get him the help he needs, which a psychotherapist said he needs long term (at least 6 months) in house treatment for him to recover. Nobody can afford to get him that - I wonder if he had received REAL help 5, 6 7 yrs ago, instead of these band-aid programs, would he have truly recovered? He is the best young man, when sober, but I love him all the time.
