Well RN, at least you are now admitting it, that's the first step. Now we need to work on your OTHER problem!

Seriously I do commend you on what you do, who you work with. I don't think I could handle working with people that way. They have a legitimate problem, not one that is made up of their own doing. If it is fake I can deal with it. IF they actually believe those things, I just don't know how to or don't have enough patience to deal with it. You have a special give and I for one am glad there are folks like you around.

Very kind- but no biggee! You law enforcement folk get all the same folks generally, just at different times. Pure fakes are rare for me...and i have zero problem working with folks with addictions and try hard to get them going in a little more + direction. A common refrain for me is nobody sets out with the intention of becoming an addict or alcoholic. The severe personality disorders or the hardcore antisocials are a different story though...tough to work with and needing to be in jail!

here's a joke for you- How many social workers does it take to change a light bulb?

One, but the light bulb has to really want to change!

Take a lot of pressure off my work! hah!
