Alot of drug addicts have some type of void they are trying to fill and also are in emotional pain and can’t cope with the pain. I moved to florida very naive and had no parents that sent me in the world with skills to survive and the first time I did drugs I started to increase alot because it killed the pain of being alone and scared. It took over my life for years and now after I have had tons of therapy and self improvement I realize if someone would have been with me as a child telling me the harm of drugs and how hard a life with drugs was, I guarantee I would have made better decisions. So when you see the commercials that say *Just speak to your kids*, that is very true, it does make a difference.
