It's everywhere... no where's safe.

moms, sisters, boyfriends mom, his brother, friends, even next door there's a dope dealer. it's everywhere, everyday....in my life always. my only chance would be to leave west virginia and startt a fresh life else where with my kids... this place is infestdwith illness, i want out!

it sounds like you have already found the answer to what you need to survive.

My harp teacher's son was a crack addict. To get clean he had to move to a small town a 16 hours drive away.

"people, places and things" all make it difficult to cope. glad u feel moving is a good answer. however everywhere unfortunately this prob exists but then again, he who sleeps with dogs, gets fleas. distance, a great idea!

I know a guy who moved to another country so he could change his life. Anything's possible! Do you have any friends or family far away who could help you find an apartment or something?

i had to move several times of course mostly safety reasons! all i need to do now is make a phone call and it will be on my front door. but it was the people i needed to get away from. i needed to learn how to be strong to overcome the people. now i'm ok and living back in my hometown...and it's a small town.! people who use or drink don't want to be around me anymore anyways who wants to be around someone that's straight

sorry about the text, im mobile...i meant im tired of junkies and their drug dramas.

over the summer a guy i went to school with well his mom died & after a couple of days it just turned into typical drug flop house im like this aint gonna go over HERE bein so open & the traffic well i started noticin the cops were drivin by here 3 times more than usual & one of the people there i know from the past he has to be bp1 if not schizo symptoms plus a bad crack head i guess in his dilusinal state he called the cops & told them someone stole his crack after that it was stopped & the person in control of the estate sold it to a nice man. not to mention couple days before that he was out on the back porch screamin & demeaning his girlfriend at the top of his lungs & i got on up the street & could still hear him. point is that was too close & out in the open & with the dynamics that were goin on in that place i knew it was a matter of time before someone put a bullet in somebody but thankfully it was all taken care of before that happened i just remember bein so upset cuz i was in that hell for so long & was like nuhuh this aint gonna happen a few houses down & i have to see it everyday theres probably more dope up a wv hollar than in a city well not to mention small towns but from what i hear its like that everywhere
