I’m a disowned drug addict!!?

Question by : I’m a disowned drug addict!!?
For the record, yes I have posted this under another account. Just look for a variety of opinions.

Anyhow, I’m the youngest of three brothers. I’m 18 and my brothers are 19 and 20. We all live in different states, none of which are close to each other— my oldest brother is in Maryland, the other in Montana, and myself in Arizona— so we haven’t seen each other since Christmas. I’ve been addicted to cocaine for the last two months and after much denial finally admitted to myself that I have a problem and decided to tell my brothers as well. Neither of them knew about my addiction and were shocked and hurt when I told them, but despite that I want help they still want nothing to do with me. They never return my calls, they don’t answer any of my e-mails or letters, and they’ve never touched base with me to see how my recovery is coming. I’m hurt by this because I wanted to get better and maybe rekindle a decent relationship with my brothers, but they’ve completely disowned me. I’d still like help, but what can I do about my brothers? Why are they doing this to me?

well it’s good that you can admit to our current disease. I honestly think there’s nothing you can do to change your brothers. What matters is trying to change yourself and show them you are a great person. If they choose to be distant then let them.
