Lacys POV
"My name is Lacy Carmichael. I'm 16 years old... Blah blah blah. I live in New Jersey with my family. Does anyone really care about what the hell I say? Is anyone actually listening?"
No one is really bothered by what I'm saying, they all just look like they're one step closer to a foot in the grave. My train of thought is interrupted when my counsellor speaks up...
"We are listening Lacy. Lacy just take a few deep breaths, calm down."
I listen to his instructions and start taking deep breaths.
In,out
In,out
"Now Lacy, why don't you tell the group why you're here?"
"Well... I'm here because... Well, I overdosed on a few sleeping pills and ended up in hospital. My parents... Um.. thought it was a good idea to send me here. So, I'm in this rehab center, right here in Jersey, for overdosing on drugs."
I finished my sentence and let out a shaky breath. I was telling complete strangers about my drug addiction.
"Why don't you tell us more about those pills? Where you got them. Why you use them."
I shake my head and take a seat next to the alcoholic boy that I met when my mom signed me in to this center.
"Its ok to talk Lacy, this is a safe place."
"Well I had the pills, they're prescription meds that my doctor prescribes for my insomnia, I took them because..."
I am interrupted when the door opens abruptly, revealing two boys.
"Sorry we're late, the traffic was intense."
