my dad was a heroin addict for years before i found out anything about it , he commited suicide when i was ten because he thought my family were all so disgusted in him. he started using because he couldnt cope with the loss of his dad and two of his brothers. he was a lovely man and although he had a problem he was the best dad i could have asked for. he always tried to put everything else before his addiction and tried to give up many times but it was too hard. my mum has gone down hill since he died, they were married for twenty five years and she has found it very hard coping with his death. shes started drinking quite a lot and admits to being an alcoholic. my sister had a breakdown and was admitted to hospital though it. she is now on the road to recovery though. anyone who ever has to deal with something like this and comes through it, ive got to hand it to you, its so hard so well done.
