I'm still in contact with two. One mate is pretty much permanently in D-ward.
The other fella I'm seeing tomorrow. He's addicted to speed and ecstasy.
I see him about once a month and I take clothes, blankets, food and money.
I always clean up and cook a few decent meals.
I am always worried that he won't be there anymore.
Kicked out or dead.
I suppose I realise that that is the way it will end.
Nothing else to say about that.

It's rare to meet someone who got out once they were fully in.
I understand you feel that the support you are giving is right. But is it enabling? That certainly would have allowed me to continue my addictive alcoholic behavior.
No offense.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
