I was just thinking if this guy had a psychiatric eval.. Many homeless people suffer from a mental illness.. Just thinking he may need one.. Who knows what the argument was over?? He wasn't arrested and who reads gossip news anyway:0corn

not to many family or friends look us up after we have dumped all over them for years upon years upon years..they finally learn "Co-Dependent" no more and breakaway from the chains that bind them to us Self-Medicators.
Then in our early steps to recovery we try to make right the wrongs ..it's part of the recovery and can be painful and time-staking..... our friends and family have years and years of frustration that can boil over into many a heated exchange..especially in the beginning because for a lot of us the promises have all be broken before..the signs of a comeback or squashed by the return to the hell hole that is "Self-Medication..
Real hard to step out of your own vomit while laying face down in the gutter and rise again to regain the RESPECT of those we used ..lied to..abused..stole from..and cheated on..that respect doesn't come back just because we put on a new shirt and get a shave,,a pain staking process that take years upon years to do..
and on top of that some of struggle each and every day to not fall back into the depths of hell that can only be described but never understood until you have experienced every ounce of your pride and being consumed by an outside force you struggle to defeat and control..
I hope this in some will enlighted those who have no earthly idea how horrible it is to be addicted..
It isn't funny..It isn't humorous..
until that person who you used to call friend lets you know it is..
otherwise is people making fun of other people at that persons expense..
The expense being a human being..
