sorry that this is really long. anyway, i feel if maybe i would've forced hi not to go to texas or maybe if i would've called him back the last time he tried to call me thing would've been different.
also, if anyone wants to know why i'm against drugs that is the reason right there. i've seen way too many people in my family (mental problems and not) hurt by drug use.

It's completely not your fault, so hopefully the regret of not doing more doesn't last too long. People will do what they want. If he really wanted your help, he would have asked for it, not for $300.
