Thanks.

I think her problem is the drugs. She has done drugs of some form or another since she was 13, and she is 23 (to be 24 in September). On the rare occasions when she is sober, she acts like she should get everything she wants, has no goals, lies and steals constantly, and everything else.

But she is miserable with herself and so she cries all the time (when she isn't acting like I described). I feel bad for her sometimes becuase I know she is very depressed, but I have (almost) always done the right thing and I had the same oppurtunities she had so I can't buy the whole "I had a bad childhood" excuse.

She just got out of jail too. She wouldn't have had to go if she would have paid her tickets, and she went to court hopped up on all kinds of drugs and alcohol so the judge sentenced her to 6 months. It actually was a year and a half, but she got out on good behavior (go figure). She has been through AA and NA so many times that she knows what they want to hear so she just breezes through and they are none the wiser. I really don't know what to do about it, but I am pretty sure she will overdose one day (she has in the past) and that will be the end. I just hope it doesn't come to that. Thanks for your advice though.
