my sister is an addict and my heart just keeps on breaking. she’s been addicted to drugs for a long time but with in the last year (i think) started doing fentanyl. she already has been to jail multiple times, has been on probation basically since she was 17, (she’s 22 now), has been to rebab 3 times, had a baby, lost custody of that baby when he was 5 1/2 months old, has gotten into basically every drug in the book and now has gotten herself into the worst place she’s ever been… deep into fentanyl addiction. homeless. and so so soooo skinny. she literally looks like she could just die at any second. she’s also so mean now and not the sister that i love and miss so much…

my question for you all is… what was rock bottom for you? i keep hearing people say “she has to hit her rock bottom” but what could possibly be more bottom than losing your son and being on the streets. i just don’t understand… :(

tldr; my sister is an addict and i want her to want to get better.. what was your “rock bottom?”
