Hi, hope you are well,

Why not try explaining to this lady the direction you are aiming. Tell her that you need her help in that you are trying to get & remain clean. I know that may not ring too many bells with her/him but at least you can cross it of the list and try something else. From past experience, getting away from people and their influences is difficult but very important.

You have no obligation lend money and gicing it to get rid of folk only makes things worse long term.

Be strong and I wish you succes, dont let the ^&%^(&*^ grind you down.

James
