sooo, my brother starts drug rehab today..
apparently its a 5 day stint in the hospital followed by 2 weeks of councelling.. hrmm, forgive me for being cynical but after 12 years of him using drugs, lying and stealing, they expect 3 weeks worth of treatment to sort him.. i hope they put him into something further from there otherwise i think he'll just end up back where he was..
so needless to say there's a lot of stress and shit going around at home at the moment, mum and dad are both blaming each other for certain parts of what's happened, i'm copping flack cause they found out that he smoked a bong with me once when he was 14 or something.. its a merry merry household atm.. i told them both that we had all been at fault in particular instances however he's been a fucking adult for the last 6-7 years and has been offered help on so many occasions and repeatedly turned away from it that none of us could be held responsible anymore and that it wouldnt help anyone if we kept on with it..
i had to explain all about drugs to them, including what they looked like, how you could take em, how much they cost, what were the immediate effects, what were the long term effects, i used as much lingo as possible.. man i felt like i was a today tonight drug education special.. its funny hearing your mother say "he was probably putting all that money up his nose doing lines" to your grandmother.. i think i may not have explained pot properly as i overheard my mum telling one of her friends that marijuana was laced with thc..
anyways, there will be some fun times ahead i feel..
umm, cant be bothered writing much else this journal, too much shit floating around in my head..
stay cool guys..

Its hard catching the older generation up with the drug situation today, even those that did a bit in their youth, don't understand how much of an entirely different situation it can be today.
Huey be with ya.
