[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are more annoyed by a Christian than a drug addict?[/quote]

As a drug addict, she was simply absent from things and a PITA to her siblings.  As a "born-again" Christian, she was everywhere, all the time, pushing pamphlets into hands and giving impassioned pleas that we all attend her church, be "washed in the blood of the Lamb" and give our lives to Jesus Christ.  For the record: everyone she was talking to already attended a church.  Just not her version.

So yeah, it's more annoying to deal with that than never seeing her and just hearing stories about her hitting people up for money.  But it's still healthier for her, and her addictive personality needs an outlet somehow.

If she'd become a witch and spent every family gathering demanding we perform solstice rites that would be deeply annoying too, and still healthier than drugs.  Would you lot be as bothered by me noting how irritating that was, though?  Or would you instead be outraged that I thought witchcraft was the healthier option and insist it was worse for her immortal soul?[/quote]

So you see your aunt’s life in the context of how she should act to not annoy you?

Even if she were a drug addict killing herself, you didn’t have to deal with her, and out of sight, out of mind, and you are more than fine with that.

Because she’s an active Christian, and you have to see her and interact with her, you find her annoying. So you lament she will live longer.

She’s not a witch, and it’s a waste of time dealing in hypothetical scenarios.

The correct answer here, is: I love my aunt. I do not want her to die no matter what.  Even if she’s annoying, we are grateful as a family she’s not a drug user anymore, As a family and as individuals, we will support her sobriety with love and understanding.

Did you answer how you know your aunt has an addictive personality? How do you know she didn’t get hooked on pain pills because of an injury? How do you know she didn’t start using drugs to self medicate after an emotional trauma she couldn’t deal with?

There are lots of reasons people start using drugs. Emotional, physical, sexual abuse, etc.

From your words you have written about your aunt, she must know she annoys you and you don’t like spending time with her. If you were a thinking, caring adult, you’d put your feelings of annoyance aside and support her sobriety. It’s extremely difficult to stop being a drug addict. She deserves support. [/quote]
