Also, I think DJ AM is a pretty neat human being. He took something he struggled with, he was open about it, and he was working with others to help them fight their battles with addiction. He did a lot of good. Plus everyone close to him said he was nice, compassionate--no one could say a bad thing about him. I hope this encourages others who do not know the horror of addiction to view it more compassionately, and less like something sinful or wrong. At McLean, they'd talk about addiction as a disease process, like cancer. I mean, I don't know one kid on that unit who was happy with the way things were when they used, and yet many in society will tell you just that.
