I thought I had heard it all. Then I was watching Lockup tonight and there was this

[Maraya1969]

young woman who was arrested for drug possession or something and she has her head shaved about 3-4 inches behind the front hairline.

They asked her what happened and she said it was some sort of "process" that went bad while the beautician was trying to bleach her hair. Then she was asked again because it fell out in such a straight line and she said something about "that was where the curlers were" and that is when I realized that she indeed did this to herself.

Why? Because the drugs that she was trying to get at the pharmacy were for cancer patients, (I don't know the names. I assume they are powerful pain killers), and the officers said that she was probably putting her hair in a bandana to look like she was having chemotherapy.

So that is new to me. Just thought I'd share.

1. Anything to get the drugs.

Throw away relationships with loved ones, lie, cheat, steal, and even deface one's body.

2. There is always more...

When you think you have heard it all...there is more...stories upon stories.
Truths upon truths..and......

people kill themselves with more than just drugs.
gambling addiction, food, and so on. .we are an addictive society.., and I might add this...

recovery from addiction is not easy, no matter how do it, or whom you work with.., but it is worth it

3. This doesn't

surprise me a bit. Addiction is a stern taskmaster.
