Thx - yes - and the good news is that he's had a few conversations with his 'bio'-Dad out there, talking about issues he needs to deal with in addition to the addiction thing.
He & I haven't talked about this stuff yet, but we have talked very briefly about dealing with the issues that led to him using drugs to deal with his feelings in the first place. I'm thankful that he is realizing that.

PS - Hopefully his brain isn't damaged from the drug use over the years...and yes, I know what you mean about a 22 yr old who hasn't had the experiences that have helped him mature emotionally & who has way fewer healthy, positive means of coping that a 22 yr old who didn't use drugs to 'cope'.
