Do we have any fans?

I'm watching the 12th season premier with the mother daughter meth addicts and wow - who'd have thought the brother with neck/ head tattoos would be the voice of reason. There's really something to be said for genetics. How the addict managed to reach such levels of paranoia and hysteria after smoking meth for only 8 mos. I was fascinated by the mom's every moving burgundy lipstick. At one point she had more around her mouth then on her lips.

I may have to tap out with the 2nd episode of the night - i can't handle IV drug users OR eating disorders - and it looks like it's a binge drinker/eating disorder. I think i'm still scared by the bulimic years ago who kept ziploc baggies of vomit in her garage.

So - favorite addict?

Here's my list of most memorable:
1) the girl who lived in the abandoned house who took all of her clothes off when they tried to do the intervention and they had to pull her down from the walls.
2) the patch addict who did the splits and thought certain colors triggered her 'pain.'
3) the huffer - passing out in a cemetery from computer dusters - classic.

Alcoholic who took a limo across country to rehab? How about the dude who was sending money to "George Washington" in Nigeria?

I haven't watched in a few years...I may need to get back on the wagon....

I think she wanted to take her cats? She had struck it rich somehow and just sat around and drank wine all day.

I find that kinda endearing.

I got sucked into the bulimic alcoholic....she's a prostitute...that angle sucked me in sad to say.

That girl was so intelligent and pretty and well spoken. Totally not your typical addict. I felt so sad watching her. When she wouldn't talk about why she dropped out of college I immediately thought she was sexually assaulted.

And then dating a dude in his 60s and getting all mad that he didn't want to be on camera because he has a wife and kids. GEEZ. WHAT DID SHE EXPECT?!

Her Mom was completely in denial about her issues. I really hope that girl gets her life together though despite the relapse and having to head back to rehab.

Ok MoMo - did the bulimic/alcoholic stay clean? I take it she relapsed and went back to treatment? Did the mother get treatment?

The mother went to treatment but left 8 weeks early, I think. So basically, she completed 30 days and bailed.

The daughter was inpatient for 90 days left, was clean for a few months at most but she was living with her parents so... yeah, she relapsed. So she went back to treatment.
