Undeniably tragic and hard to not feel bad for him obviously. But he should have put the bottle down ten years ago. Not saying alcoholism is his entire problem, but it certainly hasn't helped him get over any of this. Dude needs sobriety and maybe even therapy.
That last pic a tough one to read, I'm sure if you asked the people around Dustin, they've tried to help, giving him similar sort of advice, stop drinking. But it's hard to keep hanging on to hope for your friends when they won't even put down the same substance that caused alot of his pain in the first. All of those people around him watched how alcohol cut the life of Shane Cross short, how it caused Pstones demise. The writing has been on the wall for nearly 20 years, Shane died in the mind 2007.
No doubt its hard to read those posts and not feel bad, and obviously he's not in the right mind. But I'd bet anything for the last 20 years there has been a revolving door of people who genuinely care and have tried to help him, but he refuses to help himself by putting down the fucking booze. You can only expect the people who love and care about you to do so much. And if your not even gonna do the bare minimum and slow down on the one thing that not only caused most of your problems but exacerbates them after the fact, what more do you expect those around you to do for you?
Life has continually gave him a sign, nothing good comes from the lifestyle he enjoys.
Don't throw your friends under bus when you rode that piss drunx shit to an early grave. Witch the exception of TK, everyone from Baker 3 moved the fuck on and grew into old boring mostly healthy humans, even Antuwan found some stability. Everyone he used to associate that's living moved on to healthier lifestyles, despite being intune with the same movement and losing the same people's.
Sad and tragic but part of me cant help but wonder what life would like for dustin if he tried to sober up like the rest of his colleagues and friends did.
