This story is so sad.

Robert Downey Jr., straight out of the ‘brat pack’ days had troubles too. He hit his rock bottom when he ended up doing time in prison. He said that is what changed his life and boy is he doing really well today.

I agree with the everyone else. He will not change until he hits rock bottom. Only he can save himself.

My grandfather was an alcoholic and it killed him. His liver turned into mush. My grandmother refused to see the truth and she was his crutch. If she had been a stronger woman, my grandfather may have turned around. We’ll never know.

Good luck. Save yourself. It’s all you can do.

Yep. We know.

We felt he had reached bottom in December when he was homeless (very much a self imposed situation)

But, only he knows what that bottom is and usually they don’t know that was their bottom.

He’s known Robert for 30 years and even won’t help him.

Time to get back to cutting bait...
