PASSAGES When I was 8, my oldest brother got locked up. I really didn’t understand until I got older. As I started growing up, I started to follow in his footsteps. When he was younger, he would always preach to me. I never really paid much attention. Now that I look back to all the times he preached to me, I wish I had listened to him when he told me not to start drinking or using because when I started drinking, it took me away from my family. The drugs and alcohol made me lie to my mom and lose her trust in me. Once I got to treatment, I started to learn more about my drug and alcohol addiction, what it does to my body, and myself. I would liKe to thank everybody who supported and helped me while I was in treatment.
