        Thank you for being honest and owning the problem. THIS is how we stop the stigma surrounding substance abuse. I wish you and your family peace and healing through recovery.

        I have the utmost respect for those who are willing to share their addiction struggles publicly. I also have the utmost respect for those who choose to deal with them privately, since many make that choice because of continued derision from the public 😔

        So many suffer in silence. I wish they didn't feel like they have to. I have so much respect for all who have battled this demon. Too many lives have been lost or destroyed by addiction. ❤

        Me too, Jo, me too 💔 I hope 1 day that every person who has struggled with this disease feels comfortable 2 share their struggles without fear of being demonized or shamed. & I hope 1 day people will realize that addiction isn’t a character flaw but is an actual medical disorder

        Its always sad to see somebody sidelined by addiction, but bravo to John Skipper for saying it out in the open and taking action.
