<3

My heart goes out to the family, friends, fans of Cory Monteith (Finn from Glee) who died of a drug overdose mixed with alcohol. 

Now I don't usually do posts about celebrities but under some circumstances which I will explain I felt the need too. 

Cory had been on and off drugs for a couple of years. I don't know how long or any of the details but I keep reading comments on how people don't understand ones secret battle. The guy I have loved is a drug user. He's used drugs on and off for 19 years, and tried to get help several times. In the 3 years I've known him he had 3 rehab stints and two overdoses. 

Yes he was and kept clean several months but then he would get worse and worse. Sometimes it is too late for people to recover and I believe that. Something else besides rehab has to be done. Get drugs off the street, penalize the people selling them. They kill millions a year and only the famous people get recognized. 

People have asked how it is possible not to know that they have fallen off the bandwagon. There are situations that it is not possible. I can't explain it, but when my friend fell off the last time I did not know.   He wasn't acting much different so I never knew until he started snapping at me and completely went insane.  

So in all honesty I guess why I hurt so much for Cory's girlfriend lea is because I went through this. I went through the pain of watching someone fade. She lost the man she loved, I did too..not the same way but I understand.
