Subject: Re: When, and how, do I tell her the truth? Author: Been There [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 15:56:21 09/11/06 Mon In reply to: Danielle 's message, "When, and how, do I tell her the truth?" on 02:01:20 09/08/06 Fri I agree tell her as soon as you can. I also agree do not bash her parents, yes your niece has a disease. You don’t even need to go into the drugs, for now just let her know mommy has a disease that makes her unable to care for you and unable for you to be safe around her alone. Good Luck From The “Helpful Tips” Addiction and disease: This is an excellent site for explanation. The point is an addict wants to quit but cannot they mentally and physically need it to live. Rather die than not use; their mind is diseased with this disorder. I know it is a choice at first, a choice to feel good, and have fun like going to the movies. With drugs in time that choice you made tricks you in to thinking that you need it to live than it becomes addiction (disease.) Good Luck. http://www.medical-online.com/addict.htm [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
