Question Posted Wednesday January 31 2007, 5:14 pm
Lately I have just been spending time with my brother because I am trying to get myself on the right track (in school off alchohal etc.) Am i doing the right thing by taking baby steps on bettering myself and not hanging out with friends?

If hanging out with those friends is what puts you on the wrong track, then there is nothing wrong with finding new friends.
Look at it this way- an alcoholic who sobers up tends to not hang out with their old drinking buddies. This is because they choose to start leading a better life for themselves. It's not because they want to shun their old friends, but that they want to steer clear of the old lifestyle their friends lead. [ Brandi_S's advice column | Ask Brandi_S A Question ]
