My own experience is that I didn't achieve long-term sobriety until after my family quit trying to control it for me.<br /><br />Personally, I think Dowdy III's issues may shed a lot of light on Dowdy Jr.'s crusade to control all prescription drugs in the state. There's a program for that too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-91781659505475496662019-10-24T13:26:57.859-05:002019-10-24T13:26:57.859-05:00@5:36: prolly not, Dowdy already knows everything...@5:36: prolly not, Dowdy already knows everything, just ask him.

I do know that I smoked probably a boxcar load of pot in high school and college. Along with the occasional coke toot and recreational pills every now and then.<br /><br />Did I become addicted? No. Did I drop my drawers and masturbate, convulse and drool in public like 11:07am says we will see if pot is legalized? No. I never craved and had to have any of the drugs mentioned above. <br /><br />Who knows, maybe I got lucky. 9:00am mentions addiction and mental health go hand in hand. Whats he saying? Are addicts weak willed and weak minded? Hell, I dont know. I guess that's why I don't understand addiction. To quit anything you have to make your mind up to quit and WANT to quit.<br /><br />My escapades in high school and college was over 45 years ago. I suppose things change.

I am willing to bet most, if not all of you, have an addict family member, friend, coworker...it destroys lives and does not discriminate. Addiction and mental health are intertwined. It is really unfortunate our statewide elected officials and legislature won't even discuss mental health and options to provide resources to Mississippians who are struggling, they cut funding instead. Treatment and rehab (sometimes multiple rehabs) are costly for middle class families; can you imagine how impossible it may feel for those who want help but are below the poverty line? You see the results of a broken system walking around downtown Jackson every day. I hate it for Mr. Dowdy. Instead of throwing stones at a parent with an addict, how about showing a little grace and humanity.I pray those of you who are on your high horses never have to deal with addiction.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-86030075963818405482019-10-24T08:46:50.843-05:002019-10-24T08:46:50.843-05:0010/23 @ 10:47, see KF's earlier post hereto ge...10/23 @ 10:47, see KF's earlier post <a href="http://kingfish1935.blogspot.com/2019/10/sissy-blasts-mbn-director.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>to get the Sissy reference.<br /><br /><br /><br />Louis LeFleurnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-52076345469482168852019-10-24T06:32:25.942-05:002019-10-24T06:32:25.942-05:009:08.

Thankfully, my two children grew up avoided the scruge of drug activity and addiction, and are part of today's society living their lives happily and raising their children.<br /><br />But I have several friends who do not enjoy that same feeling as we lay our heads on the bed at night - and I truly feel for them as they have to deal with the demonds that drugs can lay on people's heads.<br /><br />Frankly, I have no desire to defend Dowdy - in fact, I would rather to pile cap on him for political and non-political reasons. But in this particular situation, at this point I can't see where he has done anything out of line. There are procedures in place to deal with conflicts of interest and it appears FROM EVERYTHING THAT IS PROVIDED HERE (from which others are quick to jump to judgment) that Dowdy Sr did anything wrong.<br /><br />True, this might change as more info comes out. If so, I will quickly jump on the wagon and condemn him. But if nothing comes out to say Sr did anything wrong, I won't hold my breath waiting from an acknowledgement that many of you previous posters were too quick to pull the trigger before you loaded the magazine?
