Or at least that seems to be the reason the Ignorant Slut can't go into an in-patient program. Her dog is medicated for hyperactivity: clearly a job only our heroine can perform. Something like that. Also, she fears that rehab won't let her stay on methadone. Oh, wait. You didn't know she was on methadone? Neither did anyone else, until now that she mentions it. That explains everything, right?
Well, no. You start to wonder if there's a drug she isn't stuffing down her gullet. You start to wonder how she's getting hold of all these drugs. Do her friends let her use their bathrooms? Have they counted the contents of their pill bottles lately?
Does this sound alarmingly like a (bad) soap opera? Wouldn't you turn it off, after an incredulous 3 minutes or so? Why should real life imitate a soap opera,which isn't even art?
I think she knows she could lose custody, even partial custody, if she doesn't get rid of the drugs. She has apparently started playing the blame game with the kids: it's their fault they were so scared when she was passed out and unresponsive that they called 911 and she wound up in the ER and now she can't see them without supervision. Nice.
It's possible that she was just bored with daily life. She definitely is a drama queen. The divorce proceedings have been over for almost a year. She hasn't been working for a whole lot longer than that, in order to maximize the support my son pays. So she has no forum except the kids and her friends. Some people might have taken up bungee jumping or learned Swahili. Fists full of prescription drugs? How very last year!
