I dont know you but I want to tell you that God has a purpose for everything. I had a dream last night where I met someone named Andrew Depietra. Ive been praying alot about seeing a psychiatrist for addiction and stress issues Ive been dealing with but instead of a psychiatrist I found your sons name. Like him I am also 23 struggling with addiction problems and I really do believe God showed me this profile to lift me up and help me come to reality about how this addiction can and will affect my life. I think that at a young age we think we are invincible and can come through anything but dont realize how it affects our friends and family. I pray that you and your family will be encouraged and blessed. God will give you the strength to come through this. I just want to say Thank you.
